While in a craft shop today I saw skeleton leaves and remembered I have a large collection of them at home.
This lead me to the decision to used them up!
Starting with this sketch I made a kraft card stock base card.
The main piece is cream card stock with brown flecks through it that I applied, according to the sketch, brown card stock and a piece of cream card stock that I made into a background with Distress inks rusty hinge, spiced marmalade and gathered twigs.
Next I stamped the sentiment from Unity Stamp Co.’s “...a beauty all it’s own” with Memento rich cocoa ink.
To finish I glued two skeleton leaves to the front of the card.
Beautiful! What a wonderful quote and I'm glad our sketch inspired you to both use up those leaves and create that rich marbled panel that shows them off to great effect. Thanks for sharing with us over at The Paper Players this week!
