The first is a bookmark using a lovely leaf stamp which was given to me by Terrie. The second, a canvas wall hanging, is where the 'improvisation' comes in. I saw Sheena Douglass make a wonderful wall hanging with her new stamps, which I haven't managed to get - yet! I coloured the canvas with distress inks and spritzed with Glimmer Mists. As I didn't have the crackle background needed to stamp and emboss round the edges I used the edge of a tree stamp and a few squiggles with a Versamark pen. I didn't have the script stamp either - so I printed a letter which was a freebie from Craft Stamper - then tore it a bit and distressed the edges with inks. Nor did I have the pear stamp - so I used this apple digi stamp by Ann - which I think served the purpose very well. That's about it really. Apologies to Sheena for not using her idea but not her stamps but they are at the top of my wish list.
Thanks very much for visiting.

Lovely pieces Beryl. My favourite is the bookmark simply because I adore pretty leaves and the wonderful colours of Autumn.
Hope the challenge goes well!

Hi Beryl,
These are both lovely. The card is so unusual and beautifully coloured but the bookmark is my favourite. It's gorgeous.

These are both great Beryl. I love the script behind the apples and the details of how you did it, very clever.

Both beautiful Autumn pieces Beryl.
Had a word with Janice at Stampalot today and told her to make sure she takes plenty of goodies for you. She said to say hello to her.
