Allsorts Challenge #832

 It's my turn to chose the theme for the current Allsorts Challenge and as we head into Autumn I thought that **Leaves/Trees* would be an appropriate choice along with the usual *Anything Goes* option.  There is an assortment of prizes from the Allsorts prize box for the lucky winners.

For my DT card I've used some fun leaf dies cut from card which I'd coloured using some Pixie Powders and a few scraps of gold card.  The completed leaves were adhered to some slatted rectangle die cuts using cream card backed by rectangles of the coloured red card.  These were, in turn, mounted onto a square of cream card embossed using a leaf vein pattern.  Final addition was a computer sentiment.







Slatted rectangles - dies from Craft Addiction UK
Embossing Folder - Leaf vein pattern, I think from Crafter's Companion (no name on folder)
Sentiment - produced using MS Word
Leaves - Artsy Leaves Tim Holtz for Sizzix

  4. Your card is absolutely stunning—the Pixie Powders give the leaves such a rich, vibrant texture, and the gold accents add a beautiful touch of elegance. I love how the slatted rectangles and embossed background create depth and dimension. Perfect choice of theme for the season!
