A little bit about my card. I volunteered last month to create a project for my Upline’s team meeting, using this stamp set. Little did I know I had signed up for the next team meeting which was only 2 weeks away and my upline needed the supply list a week before the team meeting! SO I got busy creating and this took NO time at all to come up with!
I used the color palette from the NEW Swan Lake paper pack as inspiration for the colors in this card. I used Fern, Poppy and Goldrush. I cut the leaf from the coordinating Cricut Artbooking Cartridge, but cut it 1/4″ larger than it calls for. Then using Poppy, Goldrush and Fern inks, I sponged color onto the leaf, stamped the image with Fern Ink and added liquid glass on top to brighten it up and make it pop! The “wood grain” was made with CTMH’s new Wood Grain embossing folder, then using a rubber brayer, inking over the top with Fern Ink, just to make it stand out a bit.
Don’t you just LOVE this saying?? It doesn’t even need to be on a “fall” like card! Makes you sit back and think about not always wanting for more than we have and to be grateful for the things we do have.

Love the way you inked the woodgrain. Great card.
Awesome card. I love the wood grain, inking of the leaf and even the tiny jute tied to the stem.
Very pretty-the colours and embossing are lovely.
Fantastic card! I love the inking on the leaf and embossing.
Love that embossed background. Perfect backdrop for the lovely fall leaves.
