Hi! This card was made for today's Limited Supply Challenge: Leaf it to me, baby! Participants were to use leaves on their cards.
Today is the first day of the Stampin' Retreat. The park is over 2 hours away from our house, and we are all staying in cabins. It's funny, I had 4 of the participants ask me if Speedy the Cat was coming! SERIOUSLY! LOL! No, he's not...He's staying with Grandma...(He thinks he's Markie's little brother, so it makes sense that my Mom is his grandmother, right? LOL!) Psst....I overheard Markie tell Speedy the Cat to behave for Grandma! I think Speedy the Cat rolled his eyes at Markie! LOL! I mean, seriously...Speedy the Cat would never misbehave for the woman who ADORES him! LOL! Oh, and the OTHER 8 animals are staying with her too...Actually, she's staying at my house...It's much easier, according to her. Oh, and I have full cable! LOL!
I stamped the leaf in VersaMark onto watercolor paper and embossed in gold. Next, I colored it with SU! markers. I used an aqua painter to blend the colors. The image was cut out and adhered with foam tape.
I am sending this to a friend who just lost her job....
