Pretty Embossing With The Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder!
The bird image from the Perched In A Tree stamp set makes me smile. He’s just so cute and chubby. I actually cased this card from the Annual Catalog but added more layers and moved the sentiment from the bottom to the top.
Before I cut the branch flowers, I stamped the dotted image repeatedly on Daffodil Delight Cardstock and then used the diecut to cut four of them out. I stacked one under each end of the branch and one on top of the branch for a stacked look:
In the next few days, you’ll see projects from me that I quickly whipped up by casing projects from the catalogs. I am actually away on a mini vacation with my son and have pre-scheduled some posts for you while I’m away.
