Changing Leaves

 Last week I showed you a video of the products I was using to create this card, and today I want to show you the card in detail:


This card started with the Thoughtful Journey designer series paper.  Then I started adding elements from the Changing Leaves bundle - the leaves, the sprigs and the label with the greeting.


The Hybrid Embossing Folder creates beautiful, embossed leaves and cuts them out at the same time.  I also added some additional Very Vanilla and Wild Wheat leaves (cut with the Autumn Leaves dies).

And look at that gorgeous ribbon!  The Black and Very Vanilla Large Check Ribbon makes a beautiful bow!


Of course I had to finish the inside of my card with one of the stamps from the set - so classy!


The Changing Leaves bundle can be found in the OnLine Exclusives.  Shop here or click the pics below to go straight to my store.

Pretty Silver Leaves

What happens when you heat-emboss directly on designer series patterned paper?  


I took a piece of the Thoughtful Journey DSP and heat-embossed the large leaf from the Changing Leaves stamp set using Silver Wow Embossing Powder...and...WOW!  So shiny!  And such a contract to the Pretty Peacock background!


I also heat-embossed a second leaf cluster from the stamp set, then cut it with the dies to add under my greeting.


A touch of Silver Foil (behind the main panel and for a few die-cut twigs) and this beautiful card all came together.  I just added a few Adhesive-Backed Sequins Trio (in Pretty Peacock) and my card was done!

Have you ever tried heat-embossing on patterned paper?
