So my card focused on Autumn leaves. Autumn is my favourite season and it's all just starting to happen slowly in my part of Wales. My chutney has already been made and the sloe gin is next on the menu. I digress. Back to my card! I started off with a very old embossing folder - I've added a picture below. I can't even make out the name on it but if you have something similar in your stash this idea may work for you too.
I started off by inking up the leaves around the oval in Distress Inks in Crushed Olive, Peeled Paint, Gathered Twigs and a touch of Spiced Marmalade. I spritzed it with some water then ran it through the Big Shot and I love how it came out.
Previously I've been playing with Tim Holtz Leaf Fragments dies even before he did a You Tube of them lol! I used various inks to create the leaves and I also used book pages but they just didn't seem to quite fit this theme. I took three of the leaves and added them to the centre of the image. The sentiments are from two separate Tracy Evans sets for Aallandcreate.
