Fall, Family & Football with Joy Clair and Leisure Arts~

Hi, Connie here with a set of cards created using the newly released set by Joy Clair called Fall, Family & Football and dual tip markers by Leisure Arts. Fun stuff right here. Who doesn't love fall, family and football~we love em' all! Just still waiting for the fall thing to happen here in Texas~

These cards were created by using the markers as a mixed media type ink. I scribbled the ink on a non stick mat and added a small amount of water and dabbed the ink on the watercolor paper. I dried the paper with a heat tool after each color. I just kept layering colors (from the markers) until I got a fallish mix of color. Something a cool November day would be proud of. The images form the Fall, family & Football stamp set were stamped out and colored in with the dual tip markers by Leisure Arts.

The images were adhered to the card front with Dimensional adhesive and then double matted on coordinating cardstock. The cards are 3" X 4" /small great for gift bags are football goodies!

The second card is created using the same technique except I used Distress Oxides inks instead of the dual tip markers. The background was created the same. The images were water colored with Distress Oxide ink. The images were adhered to the card front with dimensional adhesive/foam squares. The card front was double matted on coordinating cardstock and then adhered to a folded card. This is a 3" X 3" card so it is perfect for a gift bag or used as a card on some game day treats!
