It's time for another month long challenge at
our theme for this month is LEAVES
With fall right around the corner.. Summer is pretty much over and I must say I love summer but Fall is another season with the changing of the leaves, cooler temps. If it we could only have spring, summer and fall.. I'd be happy. I am not a winter person.. I guess we'll see how it is this winter with it being my first since retiring.. I know I have sure enjoyed the other seasons.
I had fun creating this card. I used mostly Stampin Up leaves.. I did add the little three leaf teal leaves by Simon Says. I added the sentiment on vellum and heat embossed with antique gold and did the scallop die for the border all three by Simon Says.. I have a close up below showing it better. I did all of the colors with Ranger inks. I added some Nuvo drops. I used a large dot embossing folder on SU Elegant eggplant. Please stop by the CWS blog and see some inspiration by the DT.
