One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

NBUS Challenge & Addicted to CAS

Thank you Darnell for encouraging us to use our NBUS!!
                         
         This is a NEW We R Memory keepers embossing folder...and the NEW Little Stitched leaves from Lawn Fawn!  I took a piece of paper and using various distress inks, I sponged all over the paper, then laid out all the leaves (original and little) and cut them out. The stitched border is also NEW from Lawn Fawn called Stitched Borders.
I added a strip of glitter paper to the top and bottom of the rustic cream paper.
My sentiment is from an old PTI set called Falling Leaves.
Oh and this is a CAS from Nicole from the Lawn Fawn blog
           

                          Never-Before-Used-Schtuff (Stamps, Dies, EFs, etc.)

I love this fall card. I have that emobssing folder and the small stitched leaf dies so I will use your example to make a card too. Your leaves are beautiful and unfortunately this is what ours will look like very soon. It is a pretty time of year here but then the cold comes. Oh yuck.
