Autumn at Sweet Stampin' Challenge

 Hi... I'm back to share an Autumn card for the challenge at Sweet Stampin' Challenge blog.  Our theme for this week is "Autumn" - which for me is strange as it's Spring time here in NZ




I used a background that I had in my stash.  It was a Gelli plate print made with green inks and a Catherine Pooler stencil called Marching Leaves.   Recently I watched a Gina K Designs Facebook Live where she used a real leaf to make a print.  I found this leaf in my garden.  I don't know what sort it was but it looked awesome when I added Versamark ink and rubbed it onto the gelli plate background and used some Ranger Gold Embossing Powder.  I added a little bit of some Distress Oxide ink on the leaf for a bit of added colour.  I embossed the sentiment from a Catherine Pooler set called Leaf Motifs onto a little die cut flag.  

Do come and join us with your Autumn projects.
