The CAS challenge at Happy Little Stampers this month is to use metal or faux metal!
Here I used some crafting foil to die-cut the leaf. In fact the foil began life as a deep shade of red, but when I added some alcohol inks they removed some of the colour, so I added a little blending solution and some more ink and this was the result. I think it's rather nice!
The leaf is from Impression Obsessions, the sentiment from Papertrey Ink and the embossing folder from Lifestyle crafts.
