Good morning! It is wet and rainy here this morning, but at least the temperatures are warmer than they have been the last few days. I have another fall card to share with you today. I don't generally make fall cards, but I own some wonderful cutter files and there have been some incredible fall-themed challenges. For this card, I layered Hot Off the Press patterned paper over dark brown cardstock for the background. Then I matted dark red cardstock (embossed with Forest Branches) on another piece of dark brown cardstock. Using a cutter file from Beloved Keepsakes (Colors of Fall), I added the tree and leaves. Finally, I used a gold gel pen to add some faux stitching.

Kelly, that is so pretty. LOVE it. Get so jealous. Australian trees are spindly spiky eucalyptus stinky things. You can't fall into a bed of those leaves, I just want to jump right inside your card! x
