I decided to do my whole card pink, since it is my favorite color! I used the Cornish Heritage farms tree backgrounder in pixie pink, and thumped with a pink passsion marker. I punched maple leaves from pink cardstock and made a pink leaf pile, whioch I *frosted* with stickles, since we had our first hard frost last night. Here is a link to Cornish heritage Farms where you will find the backgrounder stamps, a wonderful gallery chock full of talent, and lots of other goodies. http://www.cornishheritagefarms.com/intro.php Thanks for looking!

Nancy this is so artsy! I love the subtle scalloped circle with the same stamp on it... all the variations of pinks... it's a definite pink card and makes a great statement!

Yup. Frost on the windshield of the car this AM. I LOVE all the pink...especially the pile of leaves and stickles. If you need more leaves, we have an extra rake!!!

Don't you hate it when the photo doesn't show how cool a card REALLY is? I think this looks lovely, and there are so many fun textures going on here. Great job being leafy and pink!
