Such a lovely site for the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge! While I loved all the pretty items, I found it was tough for me to pick, because almost everything is in whites or pastels. For the most part, Iâm just not a pastel person. I was really in the mood to make a fall card so when I saw THIS cookbook cover, thatâs what I chose. They looked more like fall colors & the white circle was perfect for a greeting.
For my card, I started by white embossing the leaves onto a narrow strip, then sponging the fall colors over it. Then I white embossed them again on separate pieces of green & rust colored card stock & fussy cut those. The white bg was dry embossed & I popped up the greeting on its own circle. The circle stitch frame behind the greeting was sponged to match the leaves.
Thanks so much for looking. It's on my blog w/ closeups & product links: The Write Stuff

I love how the cover of the cookbook inspired your beautiful Fall card! Your heat embossed leaves are beautiful and I like the dry embossed leaves in the bg.
