Love, love the gorgeous colors and leaves in this image here, and also wanted to participate in PTI's Transformation Tuesday (see below). I originally made a fall card with the same stamp set (leaf prints) last week and you can see it here, but I wanted to see how it would look with the leaves embossed and the bg colorful.
I embossed the leaves in white, sponged around them, splattered some water/blotted, then splattered some white acrylic paint, some black and some red. Trimmed this down to the top portion of the card at an angle. I also stamped a couple leaves with some of the same colors on a different piece of cs, fussy cut and applied glossy accents for shine and depth. I let this dry. Trimmed a piece of white cs for the bottom portion of card, stamped the sentiment and adhered with a thin black strip along the border. Then, I then adhered the leaves with the glossy accents. I love both cards - it's a great fall stamp set.
Those white embossed leaves are lovely, Maura ... fantastic against those rich, spattery autumnal colours in the background! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Time Out! Anita
