Leaves are falling

Honestly, after the wind and rain last night I am surprised to see any leaves left on our trees! We had 45 mile per hour winds. I knew I would not be able to go to sleep with the constant roar of the wind so I took advantage of the situation and made a couple of cards.
I am finding lots of inspiration in card challenges that I am finding on-line. I also love to see what others are creating.
This sketch was yesterday's challenge on the Clean & Simple Stamping blog.

After coloring the images I used some Stickles, I really wish the camera would capture the sparkle and shine! This card came together sooo fast thanks to the coordinating dies! I LOVE dies!! Dies mean I don't have to fussy cut!!

Flower card

How about another card? I used some left over pieces from my last card to make the die-cut flower. I think that the coral (or is it Salmon??) colors look very striking when paired with black. Icicle stickles was added for a little sparkle. (Stickles is the off spring of glue and glitter. LOL Yep, glitter in a convenient little squeeze bottle.) After cutting my leaves, I inked the edges with Jardin Moss Pallette ink. I then finished off the leaves with the Scor-Pal and then adhered only half of each leaf to my card base for some dimension.

Until later~
