Morning Peeps, at Allsorts this week Liz would like us to use Ribbons and/or Twine. We have a lovely prize of a Sizzix die set from Craft Stash. This coming Friday will see our monthly winners announcement but this month a twist as we will be giving away some extra prizes, our Christmas gift to our loyal entrants.
The background of the above card was a mop up from my spray box (recycled from an Amazon delivery), I always keep a sheet of corrugated in the bottom for this very purpose, after spraying I dab offcuts to pick up the ink and lovely textures. I stamped AALL and Create Leaves onto the piece, foraged some dry foliage from the garden and tied with twine, a button, word and birdie, very quick and easy. I am hopping over to the challenge at the Path of Positivity with this, only a short quote but one I often use on cards for youngsters.
This one uses a Penny Black set called Foliage Fantasy which I fear may well be discontinued as I found nothing in my search. They are two part stamps, the outline and a second one with the veins. I used a white brilliance ink pad for the silhouette image onto black cardstock, then versafine and embossing powders for second stamping of the veins. A strip of vellum with a sentiment from my Moments set, button and twine.

Great use of your mop ups Brenda. Loving the leafy card too - very striking leafiness against the black background. xxx
Your card for the Allsorts challenge is beautiful! The background created from your spray box mop-up is so creative, and the stamped AALL and Create Leaves add a lovely touch. The dry foliage from your garden, tied with twine and a button, completes the design perfectly.
Two great cards rend a, fab background with your mop ups works great with the leafy goodness, and I particularly love your two part stamped leaves with the veins - that is a really lovely and pretty effect xx
