All occasion card featuring a leather leaf, an orange paper pierced frame and some fun fabric paper

Another all occasion card for my nephew's birthday.  He has had a bit of a go with his health and I wanted him to know we have been thinking of him.  He is back to work feeling better now.  

I started with a beige card and added the very autumnal fabric paper to it using white glue in a fne tip applicator.  I trimmed out a frame (Nestibilities) and then used Deckle decorative scissors to give some detail to the outside edge.  Next, I added some paper piercing using my pattern tracing wheel.  I used my wood burning tool to add details to the leather leaf (TH), added a short piece of twine to the stem and then adhered it inside the frame using double sided tape.  

It is on its way tomorrow!!

All occasion card featuring die cut wild flowers, a torn strip of paper and ribbon

Another card using some wildflower die cuts (TH)!  The pink one was in my stash and I die cut the other two from some hand decorated paper with a very subtle pattern.  I trimmed my background to size, added a torn strip of green paper and then a pink ribbon.  I adhered this to a tan card.  The wild flower stems were tucked under the strip/ribbon and adhered in place with white glue applied with a fine tip applicator.  I like the subtle contrast and the bit of texture provided by the die cuts.
