Fall cards are among my favorite cards to create. I decided to make a bunch of leaves with Carta Bella Ultra White Felt cardstock, Imagine Crafts Fireworks Inks (Potters Clay, Cantaloupe, and Bamboo Leaves).
I started by smooshing ink onto scraps of cardstock using all three different colors. I made sure to let the cardstock scraps dry completely so that the leaf dies didn't tear the cardstock.
I used all three leaf dies from the Autumn Day collection. I cut lots of leaves and adhered them to a white cardstock base starting in the top left corner and trailing to the bottom right corner.
After adhering the leaves I splattered a few drops of ink all over the front of the card. In retrospect, I should have done this before I stamped my sentiment. It turned out well even though I stamped the sentiment after the ink splattering.
I love how this card turned out, I can't wait to make more of these cards with the leaves I have left over. Now, it's time to hop on over to
