This is my card for CC654. Stef is our hostess and she has chosen cajun craze, crushed curry and fresh fig as her color trio. Dessert Option this week is metallics.
For my card, I used elements from the September Stampin'-Up Paper Pumpkin kit. The large background die-cut leaf was already blended with cajun craze. I used the leaf stamp from the kit and stamped the leaf veins in Cajun craze ink.
The 3 smaller crushed curry leaves were stamped on very vanilla cardstock with another stamp from this kit. I fussy cut these leaves. The kit also had gold metallic leaf stickers that I used for the dessert option. Layered the gold leaf on top of the other leaves.
I scattered some sprigs and leaves cut in cajun craze and fresh fig cardstocks. These are from the CottageCutz pine spray die.
On my background I used the Stampin'-Up pinewood planks embossing folder. I splattered some cajun craze ink with a spritzer tool on the embossed panel.
To complete my card I stamped my "thank you" sentiment on the metallic die-cut tag that was also included in the kit.
That's my sample for this week. Hope you can find some time to play along with us. Also, welcome Stef who is hostessing for her first time this week.

Mary what a wonderful arrangement of autumn leaves and sprigs. I love the new embossing folder by Stampin' Up! Created great wood texture and the perfect backdrop for this card. The splattering looks great and adds another fine detail to this autumn beauty.
