Leafy Wall

Today's CAS challenge at Splitcoaststampers was to use leaves.  My card is inspired by the front door of my friends home in South Belfast.  Maureen lives on a beautiful hill overlooking the city - it's idyllic with donkeys in the stable and little rabbits running all over the garden and yard!  The wall around their front door is covered with these leaves which are a brilliant shade of red and orange at this time of year.  Maureen is special to a lot of us as for years she's opened her home for a Bible study where we've shared many learning and praying moments!

I used a set from  Sweet and Sassy Stamps called Autumn Leaves, sponging the leaves with various inks, cutting them out and then going around the edges with a copic for extra definition.

I also sponged over the embossing.  The sentiment is from a lovely set by Verve called  Here for You.
