Fabulous Five ~ Autumn Leaf Cards

Hello crafty folks! I am having so much fun playing with the  April Kit ~ All the leaves are brown too (2018) . My favourite item from this kit is by far this stitched leaf die by Lawn Fawn. I die-cut leaves out of water color paper and had a whole heap of fun spraying them to make all sorts of different coloured leaves. I knew I had to make leaf cards - I just felt the need for it so here are 5 Autumn themed leaf cards to make you happy today :) Card 1 - Hey there Foxy When I saw the Fox cut apart I knew this was always going to be a card.

I layered him up with 2 vertical striped papers and also decided to do torn edges to give more of a 'ragged' look.  I transferred the rub-on onto vellum and added that to the bottom and I love the sheer effect it gives. I added 2 clusters of leaves: one in the top right with an oval piece of ephemera ..  .. and one in the bottom left layered on top of...

Aussie Youtube Hop April 2018 ~ Blessed Fall ~ Art Journal Layout

Hi everyone, I am so privileged to be participating in the Aussie Youtube Hop this April (2018).  Our sponsor this Hop is Aunty Vera Scrap and Craft and the prize this Hop is the amazing All the Leaves are Brown April Kit!!!  For an in-depth look at what is in the kit, check out my box opening  HERE For this Hop, I wanted to make an art journal layout all about Autumn / Fall.

Here are a few other faces I made (coming in another project soon!). Next, I used the Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaf Die (from the April Kit) to cut out some leaves using Autumn coloured card stock. I also used the Lindy's spray (also in the Kit) to color in some patterned paper that I'd die-cut leaves out of. I played around with the arrangement of the leaves as a border in Dylusions A5 Creative Journal. ...
