Autumn Leaves


 I made this card for the Repeat Impressions challenge #N1820 with the following autumn inspiration palette


I used a snippet of torn striped dsp, along with a torn strip of gold embossed dsp, then stamped all the leaves in assorted colors on the gold-colored card base with Kitchen Sink Stamps. The sentiment is also by KSS embossed with gold on dark brown cardstock. The big leaf was die cut and embossed with a SB die with red mirror card and the final touch was a little bow made with SU! gold cord.

Wishing my US friends a wonderful Autumn weekend and for those celebrating other seasons across the globe, I wish you a wonderful weekend too! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Lovely card, Carol. Great job with the challenge.
Carol, in regard to your comment on my "fabric" cards. With all the different designs, card folds, etc. that you make... I thought you knew almost every way there is to make a card!

Oh,well until I read your post I actually thought your little stamped leaves were patterned paper... what an awesome background you've created, would make fab patterned paper in an assortment of seasonal colours. I love the leaf in that punchy red its definitely wowsers :) x
