Reverse Confetti/ October Stock Your Stash

October is coming to a close and that means there is just a little more time to get in your cards for the Stock Your Stash Challenge over on the RC Blog. This month's challenge theme is Thanksgiving & Friendship. I combined both on my card today. I am grateful for the friends I have in my life, so the sentiment from Fall Foliage stamp set. It is my favorite September release set. 

I started the card with some Rose Gold embossing with a trio of leaf images from the Fall Foliage stamps set. Once the image was cooled, I gently placed the stamp (yes, the actual stamp) back over top of the image to create a "mask" or shield for the leaves so I could add my splatter without covering up the embossing. I learned this trick from someone on a video I watched a few months ago and I can't remember who it was. It's a great hack to cover up any watercolored, stamped, or colored image and you want to add splatter.  I added the sentiment and the designs paper strips from Abundant Autumn along the sides and called this one done. 

The sentiment was inked in Stormy Ink and I mounted it on to a Premium Polar White card base.
