Hey guys! Happy Thursday! :) Today I have a fun fall card for you... using very non-traditional colors. Do you remember this awesome Store Kit for August??? Well... it's still sitting on my desk because I can't stop inking it up!
I really love every square inch of this set! For this card, I used a couple of the leaf stamps. If you look closely, you'll see that each leaf has a unique pattern. Anything with 'text' is super trendy right now... and I love how each leaf contains a tiny text background.
I trimmed out my leaf images & then adhered them to a scrap of felt. (I buy most of mine from Heather Bailey's online shop.) Then, I just trimmed around the image again. I machine stitched some veins and added lots of Zva pearls. Check out these sparkle-licious alpha stickers from My Little Shoebox. They're super duper cute paired with a little Melissa Frances rub-on. :) I'm really loving this new shade of green that's popping up, btw. It's kind of a mintish mermaid green. Very fun. :) The grid paper is by October Afternoon.
