To cut all the leaves first I used a Tim Holtz die, his leaves are more pointy then the regular sizzix one. The cardstock colors I used are Summer Days, Sweet Potato Pie, Orange Slice, Harvest Delight, and Pomegranate Splash, all part of Fun Stampers Journey color palette. Glorious fall colors!
So first here is a pic of just plain leaves! They are pretty just like this but... see what else we can do to them!
And you can see in the above pic that I also distressed the sides with Vintage Olive, this gave them some depth! Lastly I wanted to kick it up a notch with some glitter and goosebumps!
I laid them all out in a box lid, sprayed them with Goosebumps... an awesome spray adhesive! And then sprinkled on some Oatmeal Journey Dust!
We were asked to create a post card with our personal definition of gratitude to share with everyone that night. I loved hearing everyone's definition and so enjoyed seeing what everyone created. I was only able to take a photo of mine before the event. So here's my postcard!
This is the back side... addressed and everything!
I used cupcake cardstock, Cocoa Powder, Pomegranate and Harvest Delight fusion inks for my leaves which were stamped with FSJ Happy Harvest set. What a delightful evening spent with creative friends. When can we do this again?!Here is beautiful picture of the whole set up ... I borrowed from Richards facebook page!
Thanks to Richard Garay for the inspiration and direction for the leaves!
