This card is for a colour challenge over at Flourishes. I decided to use 4 of the IT colours for this fall, coffe liqueur, nougat, cedar, and emberglow to create this wreath. I used Flourishes fall leaves stamp set and a Marianne die to create this. The rose was handmade. The sentiment leaf holder is just one of the oak leaves slit so it would hold the sentiment almost like a cradled hand.

Another awesome card, Elizabeth. The wreath is just awesome and I love the gold embossing on the very pretty leaves. The leaf holding the sentiment is perfect, as is your gorgeous and elegant card! Oh, and the rose is perfect!
