Stamping with your dies ~ Autumn Tags

Hi everyone, I needed to sit down to make an Autumn Tag featuring a face so I pulled out my Penny Black Muse stamp, a few ink blocks by Ranger and my Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaf dies from the April Aunty Vera Kit and got cracking!! I also grabbed some fun foam and die-cut a whole heap of foam leaves (the color of the foam does not matter). Choosing the 3 smallest leaves, I attached 3 layers to a stamping block with double sided sticky tape and stamped a pretty leaf dress for each of my girls. Ink cube colors I used are: - Fired Brick - Gathered Twig - Mowed Lawn  - Victorian Velvet This is how their dresses turned out!! Next, I painted in their skin color using my Decadent Pie water color set from Prima and the girls all got changed into their dresses. Next, the girls all went to the salon for hair treatment. I added double sided tape along the hair area like so.... .. and filled in the hair with raffia. YES! Raffia :)...

Foxy is the focal point here. I layered him up with 2 vertical striped papers and also decided to do torn edges to give more of a 'ragged' look.  I transferred the rub-on onto yellow and added that to the bottom and I love the sheer effect it gives. I added 2 clusters of leaves: one in the top right with an oval piece of ephemera ..  .. and one in the bottom left layered on top of raffia! T...
