I love using fall colors on a card so this AAA Cards challenge is fun plus this also goes with The Paper Players challenge.

I got to use one of my newest Tim Holtz stamps. Since I love fall leaves, etc., I knew this was a set I would use.

My card was super fast and easy. I stamped the acorn image on watercolor paper. I did emboss it with clear embossing powder so the black ink was stable. I then used some Copic markers to add color. This was interesting because a normal thought might be that Copics don't work with watercolor paper but they were actually fun. Just a few quick brush strokes, this paper doesn't really allow for blending. My quick background is a dot stencil with a little bit of Distress Stain added here and there. That sentiment is from Hero Arts.
