Cardmaking - a large card embellished with embossed vellum, die cut photo and some die cut leaves

I worked on cards for family this week!!  I started with a large tan card and added a hand decorated piece of paper which I had embossed with leaves at the top, birch trees in the middle and bubbles on the bottom.  I added some light brown ink to highlight the embossing a little bit.  It also filled in some of the white edges on the embossed areas which was good.  Added this to my card front.  I embossed a strip of vellum (SU) with a torn edge and added a slit into which my photo would fit and secured it with double sided tape.  I added the bird photo which I had die cut with Nestibilities then added three little leaves I had sitting on my desk from a previous cardmaking session. They were the perfect colours!!
