This is my card for IC561. I was immediately drawn to the second sample and looked no further. I had been looking at My Minds Eye mat stack for quite some time, wanting to use it, but not being able to cut it. Anyone else ever have the problem! I just love the gray barnboard pieces and couldn't bear to cut them. The 2nd sample just begged to use that CS. For this challenge I used the CS for the background and only had to cut one edge which I am sure I will use quickly.
The other leaves and flower are all from a scrap/leftover basket on my table. I inked the edges on the leaves and big flower and popped up the leaves. Thanks for looking.

Your papers are pretty. I know all about not being able to cut into a piece of paper. Your combination of snowflakes and fall leaves makes a great card.
