Good Friday morning. Don’t ask what got into me last night as I made this card. I wanted to play with the new Impression Obsession Leaves die set and ended up creating one big pile of leaves right in the middle of the card. I guess you could say I took artistic liberty and threw normal design out the window to create my own seasonal change. I love all the different colors and must admit I am envious of those of you who live in areas and get to experience the wonders of fall.
I cut all the different leaves and formed them all with a stylus and mat. I sponged ink quite liberally on each leave to add depth of color.
I just started adding leaves to the card front and creating the pile. I had originally planned on trying to make a wreath but some of the leaves are large so I went for the pile design. LOL! Strange or not I had to share it with you today.
Have a great weekend and remember to do something wonderful for yourself. You know….like getting your fingers inky. Thanks for coming by.

Good Morning, Kittie, strange or not it is a beautiful fall card. Just love those gorgeous colors, and I really like the different concept of falling leaves over the wreath you talked about. I too miss the fall colors and leaves here in Texas. … thanks for sharing…have a good day.
Geart idea Kittie! I love it! The leaves are what Fall is all about and tis the season. I must try that! I would like to know who’s embossing folder that is. Is it IO’s! Very nice folder and would love to add it my collection. TFS! Hugs Lori R.
