Quick post today before heading off to work. I've been playing with a pretty leaf stamp from Northwoods Rubber Stamps.
On this first card I clear embossed the leaves, after stamping them in black, onto a piece of Inkssentials Specialty Stamping Paper. Then I colored them with a couple of Distress markers.
For my second card, I colored the leaves much brighter, this time using Copic Markers. I decided to create a tag card like my friend, Martha does. She makes the most gorgeous tag cards! If you haven't visited her blog, you should!
Okay, I'm off to work. Hope you're all having a crafty week! I've got some exciting news coming up in the beginning of November and can't wait to share it with you! Enjoy your day! :)

These are both so pretty, Barb! Love your card tag (I love Martha's tags too!) I really enjoy seeing how different you can make the same image- beautiful!
Both gorgeous, although the first is my personal favourite I love the richness of the leaves and how you created the soft background.
