I had die-cut a sheet with my Memory Box's Fresh Foliage die but was just totally enamored with the aluminum side of my craft metal sheet that I flipped it over and used that as my focus in my card. I sponged a bit of tattered rose on my yellow card stock and also die-cut a window out of my main panel. To emphasize the window, the circle frame is popped up with foam tape and the leaves go both under and over the frame. Finally, a silver embossed sentiment to finish the card. Thanks so much for looking!

One of my favorite looks is when an image extends beyond its border, and you have done it to perfection here. I didn't realize that the leaves were metallic until I opened the thumbnail - what a rich look! This card is beautiful!

This is BRILLIANT!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this....The silver leaves against the yummy yellow is such a wonderful combination...one I would not have thought to do. Your bit of sponging to the yellow is divine and your popped circle window ROCKS! GREAT sentiment embossed in silver. This flew into my favorites and onto my Pinterest boards!

Wow, this is incredible! The silver die cut leaf frond is perfectly displayed in the aperture and the dusky yellow looks like the sun rising behind it. Love everything about your creation! Popping it into my design file to study again. TFS!
