Fall Birthday

I am so ready for Fall! How about you? Fall is my favorite season and I have been making a lot of Fall cards lately. I made this one using the Memory Box Fresh Foliage die that I cut from a gelli plate pull. The background was made by patting inks over the debossed side of the birch tree embossing folder and then stamping a leaf stamp on the same side of the embossing folder using a darker color of ink. I ran the embossing folder through my machine and colored in the areas of the trees' bark with a gray pencil. 

Dies:  Fresh Foliage - Memory Box

           Fancy Edged Frame - Spellbinders

Embossing Folder:  Birch Trees - Stampin' Up

Stamp:  Oak Leaf - Rubber Stampede

Distress Inks - Ranger (TH)

Saying:  Sticker - Paper Studio

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!
