We're back at STAMPlorations after our holidays

Good morning folks, I'm here with a post to announce that STAMPlorations challenges are back after their summer break.

Here is my card to mark the start of the Theme and Photo challenge.

I used both the theme and the photo for my inspiration.

I took inspiration from the leaves, as well as using Autumnal colours.

The regular pattern of the chocolates gave me the idea for the layout and obviously the leaves speak for themselves! I stamped the repeat pattern of maple leaves using the leaf stamp from Leafy, stamped with Altenew's Pure Graphite onto a panel of off white card. To create the coloured elements, I used the back of the stamp to add autumn colours. It doesn't exactly match the outline but I quite like the effect. My sentiment from Grateful Flutters, was stamped with brown ink on matching card and mounted on a panel coloured with Copic markers to match the stamping. 

To compete the panel was trimmed down and added to a burnt orange base card and the sentiment panel added.

That's it from me but for more inspiration check out the rest of the team here, where you'll also find all the Ts and Cs.

I'm joining in at:-

The colours of Autumn

I was inspired by the geometric arrangement of leaves, as well as the Mid-Century modern feel for my CAS design.
