Live a Thankful Life

 I had a pad of Indian Summer DP on my desk from another project when I saw the latest Color Hues Challenge and knew it would be perfect for it!


As you can see, it has mostly the Rust part but also has touches of Yellow.  I was going to just stamp the sentiment and call it done (!)  but I also had the Buckeye Leaf die on my table (I've been bad about putting things away lately!) and thought I could add a little more yellow - so I smooshed Ranger Distress Mustard Seed ink on my craft mat, spritzed it with water and then smooshed the white die cut leaf into the ink.  I adhered it over the DP with foam dots and added 3 yellow acrylic dots.
