This is for the challenge to use Designer Paper. I have been hording this lovely Memory Box paper from a couple of seasons ago. I worked at mirroring the branch but added leaves.(In retrospect, AFTER the leaves were glued on, I felt I should have used smaller leaves but this has to get to Canada so off it will go as is! I got out my alcohol inks yesterday to make some suitable paper for die cutting leaves and I should have worn a body suit for protection as I made quite the mess. But, I made several sheets so I won't be doing that again for awhile!
This card is for my younger brother Michael's birthday. As I have said many times before....male cards are a huge challenge for me!
Thanks for taking the time to look.

What a perfect card for a fall birthday. I can almost smell fall in the air just from looking at it. I think masculine cards are tough, tou. You nailed it.

I don't think your leaves are too big at all! I love the way the look so real - what a beautiful fall card!
