elegant leaves…

08.11.2026…..Happy Tuesday, my stampin’ friends! I absolutely love the new Elegant Leaves Bundle, and I’ve been having lots of fun with it! I had these leaves leftover from the last card I created with this bundle, so I decided to I use create a new card with them! Hope this card inspires you to create some fall cards or projects with this wonderful bundle!

For this card, I started with Basic White Thick Cardstock, and adhered it to a Petal Pink Cardstock base. Next, I embossed some Basic White Thick Cardstock with the new Rustic Check 3D Embossing Folder, tore off the bottom edge, and adhered some Country Woods Designer Series Paper underneath.

To create the leaves, I used Sponge Daubers to add color to the “solid” leaf stamps, using a mix of Golden Glow, Cajun Craze, and Pumpkin Pie. After I “stamped off”, I spritzed the stamp with a Stampin’ Spritzer (filled with water), and then stamped it on Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper. I repeated these steps for each leaf, quickly cleaning off the stamp before I inked it again.

I then used the coordinating “detailed” leaf stamp, along with Early Espresso, to stamp on top of the “solid” leaves. (I also “stamped off” with these stamps as well.) After I dried the paper with a Heat Tool, I used a Water Painter, along with Early Espresso, to add some splattering.

The sentiment (from the Elegant Leaves Stamp Set) was heat-embossed on Basic White Thick Cardstock, using my Versamark Pad and Gold Embossing Powder. To create the bow, I used Linen Thread. For a bit of bling, I sprinkled on Pearlized Faceted Circles and Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels,.

Wishing you creativity always,
