Autumn Leaves

our trees are almost bare but just like some of the leaves i’m hanging on to my favourite season so i really enjoyed creating this card. besides, i need a break from mass producing christmas items.

the IO maple leaves (DIE030-S) were cut, painted with twinkling H2Os and attached in a circle to paper that i swiped with distress inks to create the look of woodgrain. i cut the thanks from the IO greetings set (DIE174-W) five times in dark brown and attached it.

i’m playing along with these challenges:
Impression Obsession – Falling Leaves (fall themed)
Allsorts  – Colours of Autumn
4 Crafty Chicks #376 Give Thanks
Come and Get It – Thank you/Thankful

thanks for popping by.

  1. Oh my, I love this one Linda! Those leaves look so real! Yes, I’m hanging onto fall as long as I can too. lol We still have some leaves left yet, but they will soon be gone. Hugs, Brenda

  2. Gorgeous! Lovely, realistic leaves and wood grain effect. I like how 3D and popped the sentiment is, too.

  5. So nice to see you at Allsorts challenge this week, Linda. A gorgeous card, beautiful leaves and love how arranged them in a wreath. And how wonderfully you inked them too. We still have many leaves up on the trees at the moment, which I find a bit unusual. But it’s been windy these last couple of days so I am sure we’ll be looking at bare trees very soon!
