The House That Stamps Built: Inspiration Photo

 Time for some photo inspiration at The House: 



No automatic alt text available.




I went with the fun photo colors, and the photo, I felt the falling leaves
were a good take on the falling stones.  I used a stencil and  Distress
Inks making sure to overlap the colors when I switched for interest.  
I used Repeat Impressions  4025-F, Deepest Sympathy, a few brads,
and epoxy shapes for accents.


I hope you will join in the challenge.  Remember, your creation doesn’t have to be made
with Repeat Impressions stamps, but if it is, you will get an additional entry in the
drawing for a $25 Repeat Impressions Gift Certificate this month! Check out
my sidebar for a discount code.

Gorgeous card, Donna! Geat take on the inspiration photo and nice design for a sympathy card! I actually don't mind making sympathy cards, as long as it's ahead of time.
