Welcome
Today's card features the new for September stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called
A great one for this time of year.
So, here's what I did to create my card.
- I found a piece of cardstock that I had rolled ink onto with my brayer while Gel Plate printing. I thought the yellow would work well for the background.
- I put that inked up piece onto my Make Art Station, placed stencil #1 from the Layered Fall Foliage onto my cardstock and inked it up with some Carved Pumpkin and some Ripe Persimmon Distress Oxide ink.
- I removed that stencil and placed stencil #2 (leaf details) into place and inked it up with some Lumberjack Plaid Distress Oxide ink.
- I removed the stencil and then used my white Posca pen to add the dots.
- When it was all dry, I placed it into my Misti to stamp the sentiment and clear heat embossed it.
- To add more definition to the main panel, I drew a red line around the edge using a Tombow marker and a ruler.
- When it was all dry, I glued it onto a piece of red cardstock, then onto an A2 sized card base.
- Finally to finish off my card, I added 3 black gems around the sentiment.

The two different shades of orange look great together on the stencilled layered leaves Karen, and the black sentiment and enamel dots finish it beautifully. x

Karen, what a beautiful fall birthday card! Love all the stenciling of the leaves, and how you embellished the sentiment with the black gems. Your decision to add the red border around the edges of the main panel was brilliant!! Thank you for sharing your card and talents with us at The Male Room for our "leaves" challenge!!! -Donna
