Fall Leaves with Torn Edges and Twine

The optional twist this week over at The Outlawz, Twisted Thursday, is Torn Edges/Twine. Our generous sponsor this month is The Greeting Farm. Do pop over and see some of the wonderful products they have available for your crafting needs.

The paper with torn edges was created using shaving cream and Distress Inks. The leaves, from Sizzix, were cut from a printed paper and then rubbed with Distress inks and sprayed with Shimmer. The clear water droplets are Nuvo Drops.

Just for fun, here is another card that I made using those fall leaves, also with a shaving cream background. The embossed veins show up more clearly on a solid piece of paper.

Forest Friends in Foil

Just a quick post today to share a card I made using the Minc machine over an image printed with toner ink. I used the image Forest Friends, from A Day for Daisies. The sentiment comes from Tim Holtz. I used gold metalic paper on the sides over black cardstock for the card base.

 

Thanks so much for your visit.
