Talk about addicting, Audrie's Inspiration 3x3 Party challenge fits the word. Those tiny blank cards are hard to resist. I did combine this with LuvLee's Falliday challenge to bring snowy leaves.
The Tim Holtz die for big leaves (oak, maple, and birch) were the perfect size. I die cut them out of a thick cardboard paper. Then used different distress inks and the wax color paste. Once dry I dipped them in VersaMark sprinkling them with the glittering snow.
Each leaf has a different treatment (buttons or snippets of trim).
The background of the 3x3's were stenciled with chalk inks of different hues. The Stampers Anonymous sentiment:
Learn to pause or nothing worthwhile will catch up with you!
was added in bits to each of the cards...mandatory pausing, wink!
Wherever you are, I hope you'll pause today and reflect on how good life is! I am pausing this afternoon to meet a co~worker and a trip to the local farmers market.

I love your leaves, but even more the sentiment.......in pieces it's so effective. Migraine all day today. Tomorrow will be better. Just glad to be able to see the beauty of the day! hugs.
