For your viewing pleasure...this week, I've actually made TWO cards for the challenge! Here's my first one....
I found this huge leaf die (QK) that I've had forever. I used a scrap of orange paper and ran it through the paper crimper several times in all directions, then cut it out with the leaf die. I inked it up a bit, and then adhered it to a panel that was embossed with this wood looking imprint. The sentiment is from PTI and was stamped on white, layered on a piece of the orange like the leaf and then pop dotted on the embossed panel.
I LOVE the bright colors I used for these leaves! I used a very old SU stamp and stamped it several times in black on some white card stock. Then I colored each of the leaves with Copics....making them very bright. The leaves were adhered to a white panel that is edged with red strips. Sentiment is stamped in SU not quite navy and is a PTI stamp.
That's all I have right now...maybe I'll make a few more leaf cards before the week is over...I enjoyed this cue word! Thanks so much for stopping by! Your comments are always appreciated!! Until next time...
Hugs!

I love the grungy effect on the first leaf - looks like a real fallen one.

Gorgeous cards Susan. I love all the texture on your first and that super big leaf. Your second is so vibrant. The colours jump off the page. x
Both cards are gorgeous x
I know I can count on you for stunning cards, Susan! So cool how you made a "granddaddy-been-around-the-tree-a-few-times" leaf for the first card and some out-of-this-world leaves for the second card. Keep 'em coming!
I love the colors on the second card. You always inspire.
