I chose this beautiful Herbarium Necklace from BeautySpot to inspire my card design for this week's Inspiration Challenge. I love the organic leaves with the vibrant hues.
Several Hero Arts Real Leaves stamps were stamped in Distress inks on a piece of Bo Bunny Gabrielle paper. After stamping, I cut it into a circle and sponged on lots more distress ink to try to create a similar depth as seen in the pendants. I finished with a sentiment from Hero Arts Huge Hugs.
TFS this wonderful card. I just love the overall design of this card-the different leaves, the colors and the way you have the
leaves on one side and writing on the other.
