Leaves Fall card... More days Like This

 Hello I have a Leaves Fall card to share.  I was so inspired by the Inspired by...Leaves Challenge that I knew I had to join the challenge.  

Without further ado here is my card.

On my card, I wanted to use the inspiration photo and sketch.  I started out with die-cutting leaves from a older Spellbinders die set called Autumn Leaves.  I used Mix Media Arches paper in 140 pounds.  I then inked my leaves around the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide ink and Rusty Hinge distress Oxide ink.  Next, I painted them with Gansai Tambi Starry Colors in Red Gold using a paint brush and water.

I then ran a older Spellbinders Falling Leaves embossing folder through my die cutting machine. My embossing folder was inked with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide ink on cream colored cardstock 110 pounds.  I cut out some brown heavy weight cardstock 110 pounds using my paper trimmer trying to mimic the sketch design.  

I cut a printed sentiment out from a Unity Stamp Co. freebie using my paper trimmer. I made it a fishtail banner using my scissors.  I then glued everything to a A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  My embossed panel is 4 x 5 1/4.  I pinched my leaves before gluing them to my squares, I like this look.  I love how this card came out it was so fun and I just love Fall leaves, so thank you to Inspired by for this fun challenge.  I hope I inspired you to participate!  Hugs!!
