This is for Cathy's WTUI challenge. I don't want to give away the details till it's live, so I'll explain why it fits when I link the card on the challenge thread which is HERE.
I stamped Harrison Hedgehog on a scrap of white and coloured him with pencils, stamping the little heart a second time and adding it.
Background is the SU ef inked before embossing. I added a sentiment stamped on vellum, so as not to take away too much from the background, and added it with a couple of cross-stitches in twine.
The leaves were punched from watercolour, misted with water, coloured with re-inkers and a little Brusho in orange sprinkled over them. Two are popped up on foam.
I made a leafy base and it just didn't work, so in the end I just did a doodled black border. Mixed feelings about this, but life is pretty crazy just now and I'm happy just to have time to produce something I'm happy to send even if it's not a personal favourite.

It really is a cute card using that folder. I have to remember the stitching on the vellum....love how that looks. Hope things start to settle down a little for you. TFS

I Love the dreamy way your inked up ef created this cool bg, Sabrina! Pretty pop of color for your autumn leaves! Leaving the sentiment on a strip of vellum was a moment of Brilliance on your part! Oh, and my grandsons' name is Harrison! His middle name is Creed, and that's what he goes by, but I think Harrison is so distinguished.
Thank you for the tidbit of info. on my colors. Blue speaks of royalty, but I didn't know that blue with gold are classic colors for Madonna and child.
