I have been making so many winter and love cards lately that I wanted to step back and make an Autumn card.
I started by die cutting a circle from a piece of scrap paper, then used the negative of the die cut as a mask. I placed it over my card stock panel and sponged Ancient Page Saffron, Memento Desert Sand and Memento Potter's Clay in the open space of the circle. I thumped Summer Sun, Garden Green, Always Artichoke and Handsome Hunter markers on my leaf stamp, then misted it with water and stamped it over the circle, then removed my mask. I stamped the sentiment in Ancient Page Pine and adhered the panel to a piece of Ultrasmooth Vanilla and a brown card base. I used a distressing tool to rough up the edges and sponged some Distress Ink over the panel (I forgot to write down which Distress Ink I used). I think if I made this one again I would use less Distress Ink and maybe an add embellishment or two.

This is beautiful! I love the leaf and the bible verse you chose. wonderful scripture with the leaf image you used.
