3 other challenges inspired today's card...
Allsorts Challenge // #AC832 ...An "anything goes" challenge with an optional theme!! The current optional theme for this challenge is trees, leaves, and plants...I used it with this blueprint leaf from Tim Holtz. (ink and embellishments are from Stampin Up)
The Paper Funday Challenge // SEPT2025 ...A monthly challenge with an optional theme!! "Changing of the Seasons" is the theme for the month of September.
Addicted to Stamps & More // #ATS&M501 ...A "leave your mark" challenge!! They want us to MAKE A MARK!! I used a aqua marker to make a mark on the inside of the leaf and a sponge to make a mark on the outside of the leaf. I finished it off with a paint brush to cover the inside of the leaf with stickles...even though it doesn't really show up in my photo.
