Autumn Leaves


I created this card for 2 challenges. The Ready, Steady, Stamp #7 Challenge blog was to use brown, cream and yellow ochre
staples
Autumn
distress inks on the background, you can find the tutorial on how to do this
on their blog
Hessian
I also used the fun sketch at Midnight Madness Challenge Sketch #22. I created the panel using the distress ink technique on a glossy panel. I then embossed the leaves by StampinUp. I added the canvas and stapled it. I ran the background panels through the Leafy Branch Cuttlebug folder. I fastened that onto a yellow ochre pannel. I then added the leaves by Dress it Up. Thanks for stopping by!
