Hi Everyone! It's Danie here today! Haven't the ATB Block projects been fabulous this month? I actually don't have one to share today as the mail hasn't reached me in time downunder so instead I have been playing with some of the new Ink Products that are available at Altered Pages from IMAGINE Crafts/Tsukineko.
This year our Autumn has been one of the warmest on record for a number of years across the country and apart from the odd night or two we have not needed a jumper or overly warm clothing, which I love however I am envious of those in much cooler climates who get to experience the magnitude of colors of a true autumn with falling leaves and crisp nights as the closest I get to such a sight is via the internet. So as we bid farewell to our Autumn here in Australia I decided to make some Falling Leaves ATC's.
Supplies:
To finish I layered a scrap of Glitz Paper, a strip of burlap, my premade Autumn leaves and Dew Drops and lastly rounded the top right corner of the card.
Next month the entire Altered Pages Teams will be showcasing projects using products from IMAGINE Crafts/Tsukineko so be sure to pop back regularly and check them out.....I am sure you will get some useful tips about the various inks they make too!

Supplies:
- Cream Cardstock
- Brayer
- IMAGINE CRAFTS/Tsukineko Memento Inks Pistachio, Peanut Brittle and Rhubarb Stalk.
- Dylusions Spray
- Altered Pages Art Stamps, French Postage Stamp and Basketweave Texture
- Nori Paste
- Burlap
- TCW Stencil Mini Circle Explosion
- Robin's Nest Dew Drops
- Autumn Leaves from previous project at my monthly craft group meet. (layered papers with ink paint and embossing die cut)
- Corner Punch
I started by brayering ink (Pistachio and Peanut Brittle) over Cream Cardstock and cutting this to ATC Size.
Next using my Mini Circle Explosions Stencil I sprayed the design onto my background with Dylusions Ink before using my stamps and the Rhubarb Stalk Ink to add further details.
