This card was made for today's bonus Technique Lover's Challenge which was to choose a favorite previous challenge. I have only been doing the challenges for a short time, so I have to confess that this is the first time I have ever done this particular technique. I love the look, but I need to be honest and say that the detail cutting that this particular stamp image required made this time consuming and I almost got in trouble with my DH because I used one of his fire fighter magazines from which to get my backgrounds. It had great fires in the background that were perfect for autumn leaf colors. Sanded background on the Pumpkin layer was gold embossed in keeping with the glitz on the rest of the card.

This is so beautiful! I love the colors (apologies to your DH!) of the leaves, and the contemporary design is very appealing. Straight to my favs goes this one! TFS!

PS, I'm still staring at this card! You know, it didn't look like much in the thumbnail, but when I opened it up, WOW! It really popped out at me! I can't believe the cutting job you did on this either! I guess you won't be make 2 dozen of them for a swap though! LOL! Again, it's gorgeous! I love it! TFS!
