It's time for our monthly Designer's Choice Challenge over on The House That Stamps Built. This month it was Joy's turn to pick and she chose: "Circles."
I decided to do a little watercoloring with distress inks, and I'm loving the way this wreath looks dressed in warm autumn hues!
- First I printed one of the wood backgrounds (from Graciellie's new Rustic Wood Digital Paper Pack) on watercolor paper.
- Next I stamped my wreath in versamark watermark ink and embossed it in brown embossing powder.
- Then I stamped my ink pads on my clear acrylic block, added a bit of water, and painted each flower and leaf
- Last of all I added a few spatters here and there

Beautiful card, Esther! The splatters and gems make for super embellishments.
Very pretty - love how you made this a fall wreath - I have made it using bright colors. All the colors just seem to go together perfectly.
beautiful autumnal card with a great sentiment, thank you for joining in at MMM
Stunning card Esther, the scoring, distressing, and all your little details make your card shine!
What pretty flowers and I like the distressed edges. I keep forgetting to use that technique.
What a pretty card, Esther! You always have just the right finishing touches! (and starting touches, and.... oh, well - your cards are just perfect!)
Sweet, sweet card - inspires me to do a few thankful cards!
Love how you turned this stamp into a fall wreath. Great job!

Ooo . . . I really like how it turned out, too!! Those flowers really do look fabulous and I love the colors! The wood patterned paper is the perfect background!
