10/26/26 - Atlantic Hearts #705 - Simply Leaves A Little Something...

Today at Atlantic Hearts Sketch, I have a fall theme card for the sketch. It's still hard to believe it's end of October and Halloween is a few days away! The sketch is perfect for using Simply Leaves, and I stamped it with 3 different colors with 3 different images. These are normally colors I wouldn't use for fall, but they sure go well together. I put them on a lighter and muted DSP so the leaves pop. I masked off the 2nd half of the sentiment, and it will be handwritten inside. I hope you enjoyed this card and be sure to join us at the challenge.
