BetterPress Fall Collection by Spellbinders

Hi everyone! Today's cards uses some of the new BetterPress Fall collection by Spellbinders. Have you all tried the new BetterPress Letterpress system? I found this was fairly easy to learn and use. There are a lot of How-To videos on YouTube showing how it works. But in a nutshell, you put the press plate onto the magnetic platform, ink it up, tape your paper to the upper plate, put the two plates together and run it through your regular Platinum die cutting machine! Easy peasy and the final result is amazing!
 
My first card uses the Autumn Thanks Frame press plate on the Porcelain BetterPress Cotton card with BetterPress black ink. The Cotton cardstock is kind of like a water color cardstock in look and feel. It is 118lb and takes the impression of the press plate design beautifully! Check out my card.
I colored the leafy frame image with my Zig markers and added a touch of clear metallic watercolor paint to the inside frame and each berry. It adds the perfect amount of shine!
My second card uses fabulous Mushroom Duo Press plate on porcelain cotton card and inked with BetterPress Bark ink. I colored these cute mushrooms with the same Zig markers and added the White Metallic paint to the white dots on the mushrooms.  I colored and added a few tiny flowers from the Mini Fall Blooms die set.
