A card for a special person! She loves autumn colours so I incorporated them as much as I could in her card. I started with strips of brown patterned paper which I glued to a quarter sheet of white bond. I trimmed it to fit on my card front, embossed it and added a bordered punched layer in a peachy colour to which I had added some peach seam binding by gluing it down all ruffly like over a piece of double sided tape! Love the way it worked out. I trimmed the lower edge using pinking shears - really old ones that no longer cut fabric - and then pierced each little triangle. I watercoloured the gold embossed flower image and the greeting to coordinate. To add a nice little accent and some texture I added a die cut button tied with embroidery thread over a couple of leafy green punchies (MS). I did use the back side of the punched border to stencil the top of the card - just a little more texture for good measure!!
I will be seeing her soon! Looking forward to giving her this wonderful card!
