It reminded me that I had a scrap of corrugated packaging I'd saved to use on a card. LateBlossom's card used leaves on her crimped background so I decided to CASE it and put leaves on my piece of corrugated packaging.
I used French Foliage, stamped the leaf in three different colours (including doing a "rock n roll" technique on two of them) to symbolize the gradual turning of the colour in autumn and cut them out. I added a strip of ribbon to the centre to cover the fold line of my recycled packaging.
I did the sentiment on the computer - it's based on a quote I read somewhere but can't quite remember.
I made the card for a friend who's going through some mostly positive life changes but also wants friends to understand her sadness about some of them.
Because of the recycled packaging, I'm adding it to the Ways to Use It recycling challenge (WT337).
