Brusho leaves


Hi again, this is the last of the light brown brushos sheet that I showed the other day. I inked around the edges of the leaves with distress ink to weather them a bit.

I'm linking up to these challenges:
AAA Cards has an Autumn colours theme with an optional twist of using fabric.
I bought this craft rope in ages ago in a bargains shop and think it looks a bit like hessian.
I layered it with a scrap of metallic copper and brown cardstock.


Simon Says Stamp Wednesday's theme is no designer paper. I used Papertrey Ink's burlap impression folder to add some subtle texture to my base card.

Simon Wednesday Challenge Blog

Addicted to CAS has leaves as the theme.

Supplies:
Memory Box marvelous maple leaves die; watercolor paper; brushos; distress ink; PTI burlap impression plate; foam tape; craft rope; sentiment sticker.

Thanks for visiting,

I love those leaves and I really love them mounted on twine. That is a fabulous look. You got a lot of mileage from that sheet of brushos. The light brown is really beautiful.

A beautiful and unique backdrop to those stunning leaves. Love the texture and your kraft card base pulls it all together brilliantly. Thanks for sharing and playing along at ATCAS & AAA challenges.
