I bought this new leaf stamp, on sale and couldn't wait to use it. Those of you who know me are probably in shock right now - imagine me WANTING to stamp! I stamped the leaf in black, after stamping off once, then colored with my SN pens. Fussy cut it and used the darker shades to go around the edges to cover the bits of white showing after cutting, plus it gives it a little more definition. Scribbled some of the colors on a piece of white and cut the Thanks from IO greetings set. Scored the background to narrow down the free space and added 5 sequins to the opposing corners.

I favorited this, too. I love the coloring toonif the maple leaf, the variegated sentiment, and the brads. Your scoring adds so much to the overall design. adding interest yet keeping the clean look.

I LOVE fall leaves, and this card just drew me in. I love, love, LOVE your coloring of this leaf, and you did a magnificent job of fussy-cutting too, which isn't a lot of fun but is so effective here. Then your scribbled colors that you used to cut out that "thanks"--masterful!!! The rest of the card in white just emphasizes the glorious colors on the leaf and the sentiment, and the scoring adds a wonderful elegance. The sequins add just enough detail. What a wonderful card! I think it takes confidence and great talent to make a CAS card, and you've done it wonderfully, Wow!!! Am I impressed, Priscilla!!! As usual, another AMAZING card!!!
