H! Here is my second card that I made for ODBD Shining the Light Challenge: Be inspired by Ecclesiastes 3:1 For every thing there is a season and a time for every purpose under heaven. For my card, I did a couple of color washes using the same colors. One was lighter for my background and the other I used more intense colors to stamp and cut out my leaves. I embossed in white over a the lighter wash the clock image from ODBD God's Timing stamp set. I then added some leaves from Autumn Blessings made from the darker wash. My pearls have been neglected lately but I think the flourishes of pearls bring to mind a breath of wind blowing the leaves.
Recipe:
Stamps: ODBD God's Timing and Autumn Blessings
Accessories: Corner punch and pearl flourishes
