For today's card I wanted to use the leaf from the Amber Autumn Bundle to create a wreath. I wet a piece of water color paper and then smooshed yellow and greens on the paper. I love how fun and simple that is. I was able to die cut so many leaves. When these leaves die cut the center is also cut out, I did not want to waste these pieces, so I also added them to create a little fuller wreath.
The greeting was die cut with the Textured Notes Dies and I added a few retired dots for bling.
Let me know how you like to stretch your supplies?
The watercolor smooshing technique you used for the leaves is such a beautiful way to capture the essence of autumn—those soft blends of yellow and green feel so organic and alive. I love how you repurposed the die-cut centers to add fullness to the wreath; it gives the design such a thoughtful, layered look. The textured sentiment and subtle bling are the perfect finishing touches. This is such a clever and inspiring example of stretching supplies with elegance and creativity.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lisa! I really love how simple the smooshing technique is! Your kind words me a lot!
