Wishing You Well


Happy Monday Peeps!!!

I pulled out my Come To Gather Bundle along with the matching Designer Series Paper.
I was determined to embrace and use one of the color combos in the paper
that I had been ignoring.
They really didn't say "Fall" to me but I wanted to try.

I like the outcome of this card and besides the leaves, it almost has a winter feel to it. 

I used a technique I had read somewhere, press the die into the ink color and then die cut with
the same cardstock. I really like how that looks. In fact I did a bunch of leaves in
several colors. 
I have a whole card series to share with you the next several days using all the leaves I die cut.


The base of my card is Pretty  Peacock and then both designs of the DSP are matted with Mint Macaron.
The Die Cut circle is thick Whisper White and the die is from the Stitched Shapes Dies
I added it to my card with dimensionals.
I then arranged the leaves and glued the leaves in place. I added a second Pretty Peacock Leaf over the first with some dimensionals.
The leaves are from the Detailed Bands Dies and the white leaves are from the Bouquet Bunch Dies.
I tucked these around the leaves and glued down.

The sentiment is from the Gather Together stamp set and is embossed with white embossing
powder on Peacock card stock.
I cut the words apart and added them to the circle with mini dimensionals.


I added a white twine bow and a few little rhinestones from the Noble Peacock rhinestones.
