Creating a simple autumn scene is so easy with the right stamp set! Create a colourful background with your favourite medium from ink blending, ink smooshing, spritzing with sprays or in my case a little watercolour and then stamp over the top!

SIMPLE AUTUMN SCENE
This card is so straightforward, there isn’t a lot to say really especially as there is a video for you to watch.
I looked at the sunflowers growing in my own garden with their rich green leaves and bright yellow heads. The leaf in my photo comes off one of the sunflowers. I did try and put the sunflower itself in the photo too but the head was too large and dominated the scene. Instead, I popped it in a vase and have it on my desk.
I created a watercolour background – lots of watery goodness going on here. I used watercolours, but ink blending, ink smooshing, sprays … they would all work too. Once I had my background I simple stamped the Honey Bee Be A Sunflower over the top.
