Just A Note

Good Morning!

Today's card will be entered into a few Challenges hosted by Simon Says Stamp:

Simon Says Stamp Collaboration  Paper Smooches.

Simon Says Monday, Stitch It.

Simon Says Wednesday, Anything Goes.

I made my own stamps ala Jen McGuire, 

using these dies from Paper Smooches, Foliage 1 and Fun Foam. 

Of course, I had to be a bit different and reverse the image ;)  

Stamped many leaves in a collage style in Distress Oxide inks in;

Fossilized Amber, Peeled Paint and Spiced Marmalade.

I then cut many pieces in yellow, green and orange card stock 

and laid them over the stamped images.

It looks like a hot mess from here, 

but in real life it looks pretty cool and has a depth to it.

Covered with a sheet of Vellum to soften the look,  which I added the Paper Smooches Stitched die to along each side.
Sentiment is from their Sentiment Sampler set, stamped with Amalgam Black ink and then heat embossed with Clear Embossing Powder.
Thin Natural Twine.
Adhesive Rhinestones.



Thanks for popping by!

Enjoy~~
