SUO #55
The SUO challenge this week is all about texture. Well this card I made for my son-in-law sure has texture. I used four different colors from my retired cardstock stash and run them all through my Big Shot with the Autumn Accents die. I chose one leaf from each color and sponged the edges. Then I spritzed them good with my wonderful little stampin spritzer and plain old water. Then I wadded them all up really good and then opened them back up and let them dry overnight. I sponged them again with a little bit more color. The leaves are piled onto a piece of vanilla cs that was run through the woodgrain embossing folder. They actually looked like real leaves.
My son-in-law loves Fall, so I always make a fall-themed card. I think he really liked this one.
Thanks for stopping by!
