Leaves are falling...

This week's challenge at For Fun Challenges is very seasonal, although not my season.... in the northern hemisphere, autumn has arrived, and we want you to use LEAVES on your creation! I live in the southern hemisphere, so we're in Spring....

Our returning sponsor  this week is Di's Digi Downloads.  The generous prize for our challenge winner is... 5 images of the winner's choice! We had a ball creating with Di's images, so drop by the For Fun blog and check it all out!


Ingredients: Cardstock - Copper Metallic, Brown, Orange; Pens - Stardust Glitter, Glaze, Promarkers;  Chalks; Glitter Stickers; Clear Sentiment Sticker; Mini Brads....

I printed, then coloured the image, with a variety of pens.

I filled in the background with decorating chalks.   After creating 2 matt layers from solid colour cardstock, I fixed the image layer on top, and then to the cardbase - a little off centre, to accommodate the sentiment sticker. The sentiment was adhered to cardstock, and given some brads, then fixed to the cardbase askew, with foam tape.  I then set to adding a 'frame' of lots of leaves.... all glitter stickers... very textured and dimensional!

I thought the sentiment was perfect for the image, especially in this age of blogging and cyber-life .... our friends are all over the world, but only as far away as fingers on a keyboard!

Do come over to For Fun Challenges, and join in our challenge... we'd love to see your creations... 

Thanks for peepin'!
