I can't believe I haven't blogged since the last PTI Blog Hop! This month's challenge is a Brown Bag challenge, check out the details here. Here's my card for the challenge.
I'm incorporating the fall theme with the brown bag by cutting leaves from a paper sack and stamping with distress inks. I spiced up the leaves by tracing the veins of the leaves with a Copic Spica pen.
The sentiment is stamped on Orange Zest cardstock that was cut using a Spellbinder double ended tag and then trimmed, a tip I learned from Debbie Olson. The tag is attached with Chocolate Baker's twine with a chartreuse button.
Thanks for stopping by the blog and I will try to post more frequently.
Monica
Supplies: (all PTI unless noted)

Ink: Dark Chocolate and Distress Inks: Fire Brick, Spiced Marmalade, Vintage Photo, Peeled Paint, Dried Marigold, and Mustard Seed
Tools: Leaf Prints die, Spellbinders Double-ended Tag
Other: Chocolate Baker's Twine, Copic Spica pen, and Basic Grey Chartreuse button
