Leafy Goodness

A leafy card today using Penny Black's Breezy fern stamp.  Love the wispy feel of this image.

My card is kind of a mosaic of squares stamped with the fern image. I cut out a bunch of squares with my Spellbinder Dies and inked them up with Distress Inks. 

For my three focal images I used blues and greens and stamped the fern in Chipped Sapphire.  I used Peacock Feathers for colouring the other squares, sprayed them with Perfect Pearls in Gold and Sunflower Sparkle and stamped the leaves in Versamark for a watermark look.

I finished off by adding two vellum sentiment strips and some gold cording to go with the subtle gold shimmer on the Peacock Feather coloured squares.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
