I used the Vintage Leaves stamp set from Stampin’ Up! to create my card to share today.
My card design was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches #195.
My card was also inspired by TGIF Challenges #12. The new item that I’m using is the Vintage Leaves stamp set and framelits bundle.
I started by stamping the leaf image from the Vintage Leaves photopolymer stamp set in Always Artichoke and Crushed Curry inks on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock. I used my Blender Pen to pull a little color from the leaf images to “color” them in.
I embossed the stamped panel with the Boho Chic Embossing Folder, adhered it with SNAIL to a panel of Cajun Craze card stock, then to an Always Artichoke card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the leaf image again in Cajun Craze ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock and I used my Blender Pen to add a little Crushed Curry and Always Artichoke inks to the leaf, then cut it out with the matching Leaflets Framelits Die.
I adhered the leaf to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals, then cut the sentiment from Always Artichoke card stock with the Hello You Thinlits die. I adhered the sentiment to the card front with touches of Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I stamped the small leaf image from the Vintage Leaves stamp set in Crushed Curry ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock. I colored the image with my Blender Pen, cut it out with the Leaflets Framelits die, then stamped the sentiment from the Endless Birthday Wishes stamp set in Cajun Craze ink over the leaf. I adhered the leaf image to the card front with SNAIL, then I adhered a Gold Basic Metal Button with a Glue Dot that I’d tied a Linen Thread bow through.
I stamped the Vintage Leaves image in Always Artichoke ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock inside the card.

The leaves worked perfectly with this sketch! Very pretty! And I love the word day snuck in there on a little leaf!
Thanks Linda! The little leaf wasn’t party of the original card…needed it to cover a little boo boo! Yep, another “opportunity” for embellishment. 😉
Such a pretty card! Your sketch interpretations are always so clever.
Thanks Melanie! 🙂
