Hi there friends, a new colour duo has started for the Color Hues Color Challenge #75. Teammate Julie Beech picked this lovely color combination.
I used an old favourite, Lawn Fawn's Stitched Leaves. I think it might be one of my first purchases from them. I blended a panel of Tim Holtz Watercolor paper with Catherine Pooler It's a Boy, Cummerbund, Grape Crush and Serenade ink pads. Then I spritzed some Tim Holtz Distress Mica Stain in Hocus Pocus on to the panel for texture and shimmer. Of course the shimmer is always camera shy, but I assure you it's beautiful!
I cut the leaves from the dried panel and attached to my card front with white glue and foam adhesive.
The sentiment is from Lawn Fawn's Happy Feast stamp set.
Thanks for stopping in today and please make sure if you haven't already pop over to the Color Hues blog to see the fabulous creations my teammates have made.

The leaves are just gorgeous and must be even lovelier in person with the shimmer which is never quite captured in photos. This is a beautiful card; love your arrangement of the leaves!
fabulous, tracey. I bet the shimmer is sublime.
I agree the shimmer is always hard to capture in a photo. Love the arrangement and the dew drops on the leaves add just the right amount of interest. :)
You crushed those colors, Tracey! SO fabulous! There are those darling leaves we've loved for so long - I'll never forget sitting in your [old] craft room cutting as many as I could get from Neenah Solar White!

Those are my favorite leaf dies (both sized) and they look great in the challenge colors, Tracey. Having used it often, I know what the shimmer is like. Gorgeous!
What pretty leaves, Tracey! The speckles add so much interest and texture. Fabulous CAS card!
CAS and absolutely BEAUTIFUL Tracey! And I'm sure even more beautiful in person with all the shimmer and shine!! Sure wish I could figure out how to photograph it too! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
Yes! Your card is very beautiful. Love the colors you used.
Another CAS beauty, Tracey! I have no doubt the shimmer is exquisite on your beautifully ink blended leaves. Gorgeous!
Such a creative use of the colors, Tracey! Love how this turned out! Happy Birthday to you! Have a great day!
Tracey, your leaves are beautiful and look like they are so shimmery. Lovely CAS card. Thanks for having me as GD on Color Hues.
Such a pretty card! I love the splatter technique you added to the leaves... Also, thanks for visiting and commenting on my blog, I appreciate the time and support, and good luck with the Altenew drawing!
I love the non traditional colors to your leaves!!!! The splatter is gorgeous.
