Hi Stamping Friends!
The beautiful Love of Leaves Bundle has been my creative focus this week. I'll be featuring this versatile autumn pair during this week's LIVE Class! Join me at 9am ET on Thursday, September 17. Until then, here is a couple of sweet Love of Leaves cards I received from a recent card swap.
But first…don't miss my exclusive limited-time offer!

Selene's Love of Leaves Friendship Card
The beautiful images in the Love of Leaves stamp set are perfect for thinking of you and sympathy cards for any time of year! This swap card, created Selene Kempton, is a clean & simple design that so easy to duplicate!
Background Basics—Selene's card background begins with a 5" x 3-3/4" piece of Very Vanilla cardstock that's been embossed with the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder. It's matted onto a 5-1/8" x 3-7/8" piece of Early Espresso cardstock, then mounted onto a Thick Very Vanilla card base.
Simple Focal Point—Selene stamped the large Love of Leaves images in Poppy Parade ink onto a 4" x 3" piece of Very Vanilla, then stamped a sentiment above it in Early Espresso ink. It's layered onto a 4-1/8" x 3-1/8" piece of Poppy Parade cardstock and a 4-1/4" x 3-1/4" piece of Early Espresso, then it's all mounted onto the card front with SEAL Adhesive.
Finishing Touches—She knotted a piece of All The Trimmings Poppy Parade gold-edged satin ribbon and attached it to the leaf stem with a Glue Dot. She finished up with a couple of Gold Glitter Enamel Dots. So quick & lovely!
Jeannette's Love of Leaves Thank You Card
The stamped images from Love of Leaves have a pretty watercolored look and beautiful on their own. Add the coordinating Stitched Leaves dies take those leaf images over the top! Jeannette Swain designed this swap card to showcase all of the different leaves. I found out that Stampin' Up! designed this bundle to feature leaves from all of the countries where they sell stamps. That's why you may not recognize the shapes of all of the leaves. They are cool shapes nonetheless…very unique!
Background Basics—Jeannette stamped the Love of Leaves sentiment in Pretty Peacock at the bottom of a 3-7/8" x 2-1/2" piece of Crumb Cake cardstock. It's mounted onto a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Early Espresso. She adhered a strip of Pretty Peacock Scalloped Linen Ribbon across the bottom of the Crumb Cake layer, then mounted it onto a Pretty Peacock card base.
Lovely Leaves—Jeannette stamped five leaves in different colors on coordinating cardstock. The two smaller leaves were stamped in Bumblebee ink onto Bumblebee cardstock and Pretty Peacock ink onto Pretty Peacock cardstock. The skinny leaf is stamped in Old Olive on Old Olive cardstock and the medium leaf is in Mossy Meadow on Mossy Meadow. The large leaf is stamped in Cajun Craze on Cajun Craze. She used a combination of two dies for each leaf to get he stitched look: the outline die and an embossing die unique to that shape. All of the leaves are adhered with SEAL, except the Pretty Peacock leaf that was popped up with Dimensionals. What a sweet card!
