i ♥ fall

Hi there,

since I won't have the time to post a card tomorrow, I have got a second one for you today. If you are also interested in the first, click here.

use the embossing folder from the Snowflake Pattern and Plaid Set on light kraft cardstock and cover the raised areas and the edges with Distress Ink (Frayed Burlap)
cut out one scalloped circle from gold foiled cardstock and another one from cork
cut out two leaves from Kraft Glassine
crumple the leaves together and heat-set Perfect Pearls (Heirloom Gold, Turquoise) on them
use dark kraft cardstock as a cardbase and stamp the sentiment from Lawn Fawn Into the Woods with Versamark on a little fishtail banner cut from a leftover piece and heat-emboss with WOW! Gold Pearl embossing powder
add faux stitching to that little sentiment strip with a golden PITT Artist Pen

I am going to upload this card to the following challenges:

The Friday Mashup Challenge 177

Moving along with the Times Challenge - It's Texture Time!

The Mixed Media Card Challenge #3 - Autumn Colors

Hope to see you again on Friday.

Yours,
Tanja
