Go Where Your Heart Takes You

One of the weekend challenges that I participated in this weekend was a 'mountain' scene.  For my card, I selected The Paper Rose, "On the Road" stamp.




I stamped this image on watercolor paper using Pinecone Versa Clair ink and heat embossed the image. Then I painted the image using an everyday watercolor set from the local craft store. 

I selected a deep chocolate brown matting and used Carnation Crafts, Pretty Shabby Square Labels die set for the image and matting.  For the card front I used a piece of my 'treasured' handmade eco-leaf paper I was gifted from my friend Lynne.  It was perfect for this image.  Then all the layers are secured on a side fold 5 1/2" Kraft card base with a twine tie and leaf charm in the knot. 

Thank you for stopping by today to view my blog. I enjoy sharing my work with you and invite you to 'Follow' my blog and to visit my site - "Not Just Scraps' on Facebook - where you can purchase my cards.

  1. What a wonderful scene you have created Pam, although looking at the truck, I don't think it would be going very far in it's condition :) Your painting is wonderful, and the mounting perfect
