I had this last little bit of some gorgeous leaf paper I bought years ago out on my workspace with the intention of using it during DTGD. It didn't make the cut! So I decided to make an eclipse card that seems to have turned out more camouflage than eclipse!

I think it looks wonderful! I love that it had the gold already there, all ready for you to add the beautiful cord accent...and of course the gold heart.

I think I still have some of that leaf paper. It is so beautiful! Photographing those eclipse cards can be tricky! I love the way you put the gold thread under the heart! I need to do that more because it looks great!

I can see why you like tat paper, it is so pretty, especially with the gold touches and I love how the camouflage hello turned out, so, so neat, will have to try that technique...tFs..:0)

Love that gold and gray paper...looks fabulous as an eclipse. Love your added gold thread...perfect embellishment in tune with the subtle flavor on the entire card. I too, think it would make a lovely masculine card as well as feminine.
