Happy Thursday! I'm back with a card featuring the Happy Leaf Unmounted Rubber Stamp from Red Rubber Designs, just in time for the upcoming Fall season.
Wanting to experiment more with my Distress Oxide Inks, I created the background with them, in addition to some regular Distress Inks, by smooshing the inks with water onto white cardstock. Then I used the same Oxide Inks (Peeled Paint, Spiced Marmalade, and Vintage Photo) to stamp the leaves and sentiment with the Happy Leaf Stamp, and embossed it with clear embossing powder.
Since this card is a little smaller than my usual ones, I wanted to add lots of texture, so I backed it with some burlap, and added some fibers, including the strands I took form the burlap to fringe the edges.
Thanks for stopping by, and get the Happy Leaf stamp, and many others at Red Rubber Designs!

Finally, I finished it up with some hand-stitching.
