This is my 2nd sample for today's tutorial. For this sample, I also used heat embossing for the brads and image.
All images & embossing powders are Sparkle N Sprinkle.
The swirly tree image was stamped w/ VM and I used the 3 embossing powders and a technique I call "painting w/ ep". I used a rectangle nestie to cut it out. Two very narrow mats, 1 mustard, 1 rust (spritzed w/ bleach), back it.
On the horizontal mustard layer, I stamped another of the swirl images using part of the Autumn Leaves Kpad. The sentiment was die cut using a petite oval nestie. The Faux Brads were made using a scrap of the vanilla which I first stamped w/ the swirl images using VM and sprinkled w/ the embossing powders. These faux brads are 1/2 inch. Finished card measures 5.5 x 4.25 (A2).
Accessories: embossing powders (Indian Corn, Fall Fiesta & Golden Follies- all SNS), Spellbinders petite ovals & rectangles, 1/2 inch hole punch (faux brads), bleach

Wow, this tree is just gorgeous and reminds me of the ones around here in Sugar Land, that are just now going through the fall stage. These colors are some of my very favorites.
