Burlap and Paper Leaves

I made a ton of Fall leaves last year that I never even used. I cut white cardstock with one of my cut files then used several shades of yellow, orange, red, and brown distress inks to color them. It took forever but was worth it.

I had more burlap and leaves already made so I covered this votive candle holder by simply wrapping the glass with burlap, adding leaves, and tieing up with some cording. Really cool result with very little effort.

FALLing Leaves

I have been in the mood to work on some Fall cards. I just love this time of year.

I used an older stamp to put gold glitter embossing powder on watercolor paper. Then I used Twinkling H2O's to add some color to the background. You can not see the shimmer in the picture but trust me it looks so cool. :)

Here is the same stamp and some different colors of ink to make another Fall card.

It is on a craft cardbase with mats in orange and white card stock.

Hope you have fun playing with Fall colors too.

Leaves

Hello my crafty friends. I made a few changes to the leaf files and it is ready to download. If you downloaded it several months ago and the calyx did not show up in MTC, I have finally figured out how to fix the problem. It should work now. I also added the dainty leafy branch. You will find three different sizes of the leaves and calyx in the PDF template.  


You can download the files here: Leaves PC  (the PC is for Paper Compulsions :)

As pictured in these photographs...

You can find the video tutorials on a tab under my blog header.


Enjoy!
