GORGEOUS LEAVES

Hello and welcome to my Monday August 16 post! Thanks for popping by.

All my posts for this week were scheduled late last week because today I am having my second knee replacement. If all goes according to plan, I will be home Thursday and be ready to make more projects to share with you.

For this post, I am featuring the Gorgeous Leaves Bundle.

GORGEOUS LEAVES BUNDLE

When I saw this stamp set and the coordinating dies I knew that I would be ordering it.

I started by choosing my colour palette – it was going to be full on Autumn (Fall). Basic Black, Brushed Metallic Foil, Cajun Craze, Garden Green, Pumpkin Pie, Soft Suede and Very Vanilla were gathered together for this project.

The card base, foil and black layer were prepared. Then I used three of the ‘background’ images to stamp and cut the three panels that were added next.

The next step was to stamp and cut the leaves. They were then layered to create the leaf bouquet. I adhered them to the card front.

The greeting is from the Ornate Thanks Stamp Set. I stamped the leaf image on to the card insert and envelope. The finishing touch was to add some Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots.

When Rob and I travel we love it when we see the changing leaves of Autumn. There have been some spectacular places we have seen. Unfortunately, where we live in Queensland , there are very few trees that have changing leaves.

What is your favourite time of the year?

Until tomorrow, happy stamping.
