Crunched Leafdrop


Morning everyone, a quick post to share a card made with the gorgeous new AALL and Create stamps and dies which are part of today's Pick of the Day on Create and Craft and also available direct from AALL and Create here. There are also Black Friday deals to be had right across the web site.

This release is designed by Abs and not only something a bit different, gorgeous as well. Being a confirmed Treeaholic not surprisingly the first thing I grabbed was Crunched Leafdrop (1109) and Leafinitely Detailed (25), coordinating stamps and dies. I will share more using some of the others in the release in due course.

A quick card as I needed to get this post done, various colours of oxide applied to a piece of card using acetate, the leaves stamped in Versafine Pinecone then cut out with the dies. The base card is a mop up piece from my spray box (it has corrugated at the bottom), AALL and Create leaves arranged into a semi circle, the Robin from Robin and Nuthatch (690) and Autumn from Pinecone (389) an A4 stamp set currently on offer at £11.60 (usually £28.99). The little dots to which I applied Glossy Accents are from the leaf set and some Highlight Tilsen gold to some of the leaves.

I would like to enter this at the current Path of Positivity challenge were the optional theme is Texture and also this weeks Simon Say's Wendesday challenge who would like to see some Sparkle, hopefully the gold leaf will fit the bill.

Hope your all having a good Wednesday.

Una card straordinaria cara Brenda, hai davvero mostrato così bene questa nuova release di AALL&Create! Non so se l'impronta corrugata della scatola dove spruzzi gli inchiostri è stata voluta o se è capitata per caso, ma comunque è favolosa!! Stupendo background che si abbina così bene alla ghirlanda aperta di foglie e al pettirosso! Le foglie hanno splendide sfumature autunnali e adoro i piccoli cerchi gloss!!
Mi dispiace che abbia piovuto ancora lì da te, spero che torni presto il sole, anche per il mercatino di Anysia!!
Abbracci, buon mercoledì!

Fabulous leaves, I saw the launch and was so tempted, but went for something else instead. Was I wrong? After seeing your card, maybe I was. A stunning card Brenda. Love the robin within the half wreath and your background.

Absolutely love this Brenda, the new leaf stamps are gorgeous and your colouring of them is fabulous .. they sit so well with your inky background and the darling robin looks so at home there ! I had to smile when I saw your comment on my Rufus and Robin card … I only added the robin last minute, Rufus was originally looking up just at the lanterns, but when G came home and I showed it him the first thing he said was … that fox looks like he is eyeing the robin for his dinner!! 😳 Fortunately he then went on to say no way would a fox catch a robin lol xx

Gail said...

That is gorgeous, and definitely fall-ish!
The colors are so real!

An exquisite card Brenda - love how you have used all the leaves to frame your robin. An intriguing background also - wish my 'bits' from the spray box looked as good as yours does :)
Blessings

A stunning, textural card, Brenda. These leaves are so much fun and look fabulous as a part wreath to allow the birdie a perch. Really beautiful work! Thank you so much for joining the Path of Positivity November challenge. x
