LSC191 - "Leaf" It To Me, Baby!
LSC191 – “Leaf” It To Me, Baby!!
I just love the fall. It is my absolute favorite time of year. I love the colors most of all. I’ve been thinking about this challenge for the past few weeks, and realized that my challenge also fell during the week when SCS was doing a tribute to breast cancer awareness.
With that in mind, here is my challenge:
Part I - Create a card with some sort of leaf image. You can stamp one, punch one, emboss one . . . no limitations here, except that the leaf/leaves need to be the focal point! Also, if you do not own a leaf stamp, punch or embossing tool of some sort, go out in your backyard, pick a leaf up off the ground, bring it inside and ink it up!! You can use leaves as stamps and they turn out BEAUTIFULLY!! So, you have no excuse if you don’t own an actual stamp or punch.
Part II – Most of the challenges this week have had an encouraging note about adding pink to your creation in honor of breast cancer awareness if you choose to do so. For this “leafy” challenge, you MUST include pink in your card somewhere . . . cardstock, ink, ribbon . . .
So basically we are down to a leafy card with some pink in it!! Have fun!!
Amelia (Wendybell’sGirl) was my card sample slave again. She made the “Colors of Fall” card. So, if my 14-year-old daughter can do it, so can you!!!
Here are some samples:
Fall Bounty
Simple Leaf
Colors of Fall
Keyword: LSC191
LSC191 Gallery
If you would like to join in with this month's Cards for a Cause - you can donate your pink card to the Chemo Angels to continue the Cancer Support theme! Find all the info HERE!
Uploading: Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with a space after each comma.
If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!
Need help linking a card? Follow these instructions!
1. Open 2 windows: One window for your card and one for this thread.
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Got to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
You’re done!

Great one, Wendy. I like that you post several samples! Not sure about the pink in the leaf, but I'll give it a go!

Now why didn't I get up two hours ago when DH did and maybe I could have got this challenge done before work. It sounds cool, I love leaves. Have to go to a wedding this afternoon but hopefully I'll be back tonight. I have my idea already  .
