And…here's my card…the colors inspired fall leaves for me!
I started with a base of Night of Navy and layered on Whisper White. I added a strip of the Rich Razzleberry circles pattern in Polka Dot Parade DSP across the bottom. To hide the seam, I used the Lucky Limeade Ruffled Ribbon, and added a fun SLIDE to it! I stamped the Rich Razzleberry leaf directly on the Whisper White, then stamped a smaller one in Night of Navy and cut with the Leaves die. I used the Woodgrain Impressions folder on the Lucky Limeade one for texture. I tied some Lucky Limeade Bakers Twine in a bow and added it to the bottom stems. My secret Create word is almost. Finally, I added "Imagine the Possibilities" from Word Play in Night of Navy in the upper right corner.
