Used markers to color the digi. I'm practicing more with coloring. Used a new Spellbinder, Leafy Squares, to cut out the digi. Bought the Spellbinder at Michaels last wk when they had them 50% off. Figured the Spellbinder would be great for Autumn. Used some of the leaves punched out of the Spellbinder to add to Tag. Used Kraft cardstock for base of tag. Used Tim Holtz cardstock for the layer & leaves. Used Tim Holtz Distress Ink & Dabber on the leaves. Used Tim Holtz Thankful border with pumpkin & flourishes. Used Tim Holtz sander on the embossing. Used a Basic Grey stamp for the sentiment.
