Stamping Inspiration

TECHNIQUE THURSDAY, FAUX WOODGRAIN...

This is the card from my last Technique Thursday Class.

We did Faux Woodrain this time and had examples of different looks and styles of woodgraining.  Since most of us are putting the cards in our Technique Album with the Technique Page, I decided to go for a full 6x6 card this time to fill the page - although I ended up covering up much of the woodgrain effect.  But, I still liked the way it made the card look and the beautiful fall colors.  I also showed how the card could be adapted for a standard A2 size.

This is the technique page and the card for the album:
