Autumn Leaves

Hi Everyone

Today's card celebrates the beautiful leaves of Autumn.
(Living in the tropics, we unfortunately don't have them).






Using a Kaleidocolor Rainbow inkpad - Autumn leaves-and a brayer, apply ink in a crosshatch design on to white card.
The leaves across the base are a rollagraph wheel stamp inked with versamark ink, rolled out and brushed with Perfect pearls- Pewter.  The sentiment is from Stampscapes, also stamped in versamark and brushed with perfect pearls. The top right corner is rounded, the top and bottom edges  are distressed, and the piece is then sprayed with Pewter Perfect pearl mist. Mat on to Stampin'up brushed silver card, wrap a knotted ribbon across and attach with dimensionals, to an orange card base which also has the top right corner rounded.
The leaves have been die cut from coloured card using a Spellbinders die and stamped with a texture stamp for the veins. The red leaf has been misted with pearl spray, and the orange leaf has been edged with gold paint and coated with crystal effects. The red leaf is fixed with glue dots and the orange leaf raised with dimensionals.
The insert is stamped and attached, and the card front finished with pearls and a rhinestone coloured with alcohol marker.
Did you admire the leaves this year or gain crafting inspiration from them?
