Autumn leaves

Glad to be back! It seems like ages since I posted a card. Hope you are all well and thank you if you take the time to visit me.

I am joining in the challenge on the Paper Players blog today, with the theme of leaves. These stamps are from the Stampin' Up set called An Open Heart. I created a distress background with Fall colors before I stamped and attached the little bird which is cut out, onto the branch.



I have been in Orlando for ten days and will share in a future post.

JUST AN EDIT: I reply to comments or questions etc. in the reply section under your comment in this post - so please take a look!

Have a lovely Sunday.

    1. Hi Virginia, lovely to hear from you... you might be surprised that I don't have any photos to show, Disney world was not our destination - no it is something more important than that - I will keep you guessing :)

  7. Welcome back Jacqueline! I absolutely love the colours in the background and it's just perfection with the added birdie. Did you use watercolour paper?

    1. Hi Brenda - love your new photo! I never use watercolor paper, just can't seem to get the results I want. This is just plain ivory tinted paper, which works just as well wtih distress inks.

  11. Hi Paula! I haven't travelled for a long time! It took six planes in total to make this business trip with hubby. The only thing we saw of Disney (which was not our destination!) was hot air ballons. Only two hours - wow! This might have been the last time Florida as a destination will be chosen, but you never know... Lovely to hear from you!

  12. I love the distressed ink background you created for your card - it works so well with your leaves and fussy cutting the bird really makes him stand out. Thanks for joining us over at The Paper Players this week!
