The current Addicted to CAS Challenge is "Leaves". So I've gone with autumn leaves as the weather here is feeling very much like summer is over and autumn is almost upon us. My favourite stamps to use at this time of year are in the Stampin Up French Foliage set.
I love the leaves in the French Foliage set but even more, I love the script, postage mark, and blotches stamps. So I used all of those extras on my background. I did an inked acrylic block background with Ranger Lake Mist ink and a spritz of water, then added the script, etc. in the same ink.
The leaf is stamped and heat embossed with Brushed Corduroy, sponged with Frayed Burlap, and then fussy cut.
The Addicted to CAS challenge runs all month. Here's the link if you want to join in:

Really beautiful Susan. Love all the elements of your background ... so pretty in the soft gray and perfect to show off your gorgeous autumn leaf. Thanks for playing along at ATCAS. xx
