Ahhh....stuff never used. Like I had to dig deep to find those, lol. It's not like I don't WANT to use them, it's more of a time space continuum problem. At the time, I have big plans for them but the space between acquiring and using doesn't seem to come together. And if I have space, the acquiring continues.
Anyway, at the time I had to have this leafy branch image. I knew it would great for backgrounds but I also thought it might go w/ this leafy branch embossing folder that I haven't used in a couple of years. I think this is the first time this sentiment has seen ink and I've had it over a year.
I stamped the branch twice, masked the overlapping leaves, stamped the polka dots in different colors and cut them out. I stamped the dots again on the die cut button in the upper right.
A punched lt green band (first time for this punch, too!)was layered onto a darker green strip and attached across the bottom. The sentiment is on a die cut rectangle. The finished card measures 4.25 x 5.5.
Thanks so much for looking! Close ups are on the DRS blog. My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them. But you can still it on the DRS Blog linked above.

Your leafy branch does go so well with this EF, Julie. I love the multi-colored polka dot leaves you created. Beautiful punched band in the spring green too. A beautiful card.
