My card for the challenge at CAS Mix Up challenge!
The challenge was to find leaves, flowers, ferns, etc. from the yard and bring them into the craft room to use on a card.
I created a background with watercolors and these stamps from Penny Black
Then I took a dried leaf from many thousands in my garden and sprayed it with Mod Podge twice to give it nearly a feeling of leather...
Thanks!
Such a beautiful bright background with the pretty stamped leaves and a great sentiment, and I would never have thought to use a real leaf and sprayed with the modge podge has preserved it beautifully. A wonderful card Birgit. x
