Fall Leaves Artist Trading Card - More Than Words Challenges

 

Hi! I'm sharing the artist trading card I created for the More Than Words November 2020 Mini Challenge today. The mini challenge this month is to use the mini word FALL on a card, postcard, artist trading card, or tag. I created the background for this card last month during Inktober. I was super inspired by Birgit Koopsen's #GellInktober Series and used the same techniques she did to apply alcohol ink to my Gelli Plate and then lift the color from the plate with white acrylic paint.

I cut my inked tag down to ATC size and then topped it with an embossed chipboard leaf from the Creative Embellishments Autumn Leaves Set. I added a puffy gold leaf sticker and a puffy blue heart sticker to create a nice trio of embellishments across the top of the card.

I added an Oscar Wilde quote to the bottom of the card. So far I've enjoyed a warm Fall season. The gorgeous colors of the changing leaves are on full display, but it still feels like Summer. I could use a crisp morning, and I know they're coming soon.
