Embossed Leaves

 Hey Everybody, 

This card is for a mixed media challenge. You can find the challenge here. 

I dry embossed my white cardstock with a Tim Holtz leaf embossing folder. Then I pulled  pumpkin pie, crushed curry and poppy parade ink pads across the embossed side of the paper. Then I used My Derwent watercolor pencils to add bits of color around the leaves and on the leaf veins. I used a blender pen to blend the watercolor pencil on the leaves. I cut out  soft suede and so saffron for my Hugs die sentiment and layered them. This will go on a patient dinner tray at a local hospital.

I am seeing that's mixed media cards aren't as difficult to make as I originally thought.

How about you? Do you make mixed media cards?

I always thought they had to be messy to be mixed media. No so, to my surprise.

Thanks for spending some time with me.

Blessings,

Sue
