Anyway, as it's snowing outside, I'm still seeing fall and leaves in the craft room! This image is from Whimsy Stamps....yes, I do have some stamps that are not CTMH. When it comes to horses with little girls I can give red hair, I have to have every stamp I find! ; )
The beautiful leaf cuts are from the CTMH cartridge Artbooking. These are such sweet little leaves.
I want to share a cheat with you! I'm not a "colorer"! So what I like to do is scan my stamped image into Design Space 2 times. The first time I scan it in a square or rectangle style. The 2nd time I have it cut the main image; in this case it was the little girl, her foal and the falling leaves. I color the entire background by sponging with inks. Then I color the actual image using sponges, pencils, markers, etc. Once thee image is colored, I glue it to the background.
Someday I may take an actual coloring class and learn to blend with markers, but until then, I'll cheat anyway I can!

We had a big snow here in Illinois, also. Unusual to have the first snow be 6 inches. I love the little girl with her pony. You did such a great job with her. Nice cheating, lol. The leaves are so pretty and love the papers and flourish. Thanks for joining us at BBTB2.
