finding leaves in the woods…

and
Cardz 4 Guyz Challenge #302

The plaid paper I chose for this card just reminds me of a wonderful flannel shirt!
The base card is black card stock with a layer of the patterned paper.
\Using more patterned paper I die cut the leaves using Tim Holtz “Leaf Fragments Dies”.
On light grey card stock I stamped the sentiment from Paper Smooches “Happy Travels” with VersaFine onyx black ink, cut it out with a die from My Favorite Things “Slanted Sentiment Strips”, antiqued it with a little brown ink and taped it to the card front.
To finish I applied the leaves with black foam squares.

    A wonderful card Arlene - love those leaves, and against the plaid they look decidedly autumnal!

    I love the plaid background, and the texture in your leaves adds lots of interest. I love the weathered look for fall. Thanks for joining Sunday Stamps this week.

    Fantastic Male card. Reflects both distress and grunge from your choice of color and palid paper die-cut leaves. So glad you joined us at C4G this round. Hope to see you again. Cheers, Jolanda - DT
