I’m back to share another card for you with the ‘rejects’ from my learnings – this time I cut out the leaf template, adhered it to a piece of blue cardstock, and ran the both of them through an embossing folder. (It’s by Sizzix, and I got it through a Stampin Up! rep.)

I added some old Basic Grey paper and a sentiment from SRM….tied up a little twine for an embellishment and called it done!





















So nice Sandy, just wondering why it is a “reject”…I would love to get this card from you!
Oh the end card isn’t a reject. But the paper I used for the leaf was a reject when I tried making the Crafters Workshop card for the video earlier this week.
I used all the extra pieces to do other things with all week, even though they weren’t stand-alone trees like I was trying for.
Gorgeous, love it and the colors.
Inspired! I will definitely be trying new techniques!
Ditto Mary’s comment: gorgeous! I have quilt blocks of autumn leaves from years and years ago that have never been made into a quilt. Still love the colors! Someday….
Love how it looks with the embossing.
I just saw this technique on another blog — don’t ask which one, cuz I skip around a lot. The cardmaker had used small red hearts adhered to pink paper, then ran them through this same embossing folder for a great looking Valentine’s Day or Love card.
