Hello Everyone!
It's time once again for a new challenge over at the
This new challenge is hosted by Jo and the theme she has chosen is
SHADES OF AUTUMN
I don't know about you, but I just LOVE this time of the year!
The air is cool and crisp, the leaves are changing
into such beautiful color, football is back on TV ... oh yea, I watch football with
my sweetie! Plus, I intend to enjoy
every minute I can outdoors before winter sets in!
Thinking about those beautiful Fall colored leaves was what inspired today's creation.
I recently saw a friend using the 'gilding flakes' on a project
and I knew that would be the perfect medium to use for Fall leaves.
The leaf dies I used is a very OLD Spellbinder die set and I love the
deep embossing it leaves. For my maple leaves I used the sticker sheet for the gilding
but then die cut again from black card stock to use as a 'shadow effect'
The oak leaves were die cut from foil panels from the DCWV foils 6x6 pack.
Instead of adding an extra layer of matting card stock,
I simply (and carefully) went around the edge of my white background
panel with a Gold Pilot Marker. To finish off my card, I've added
some green bakers twine, sequins and a sentiment.
