Japanese Maple
Made some fall cards using hand painted (well, yes, fingerpainted!)
backgrounds, some crayon, and stamping on vellum with black staz-on.
The verse stamp is from Our Daily Bread Designs, the Japanese Maple
leaf is Stampin' Up.
There's a jewel, too--I always forget how badly they photograph,
but people really seem to like receiving cards with a little bling,
don't they?

as well), if you'd like some autumn inspiration, check out these fun

This is great. I would love to know more about how you made it, in particular the crayons as I haven't really experimented with them yet,

What a colorful autumn card Trisha, i love that leaf stamp too, debi x
Lucy, I use crayons on almost everything--here just lightly coloring in some of the areas on the background, as well as edgong around the card and the torn edges with at least two of the colors. Similar to what you might do with distress inks.
