Using SimonSaysStamps’ Large Stitched Maple die as a stencil, I lightly sponged ink around the leaf outline, then diecut the leaf one more time from some fabulous pattern paper. Added a SSS die cut sentiment to complete my card.
My card will be shared with:
Double D Challenges: Fall Leaves
Hopefully it will be a very colorful fall this season. So far no real color on our leaves. Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care and be safe.

So pretty! I love how you used the leaf patterned paper from which to die cut your leaf. It looks great!!
Lovely fall card. The leaf cut from the PP is beautiful over your stenciled leaf.
Beautiful card! Great idea for using the die for the stencil.
Absolutely gorgeous and creative!! N color here much either, our leaves have fallen off due to the dryness for a month, hopefully that will change! Thanks so much for joining our challenge at Double D! Diane DD Co-Owner
A very creative way to display your focal image and the paper you used to cut is perfect. Love everything about this card.
Beautiful!
Oh Gayle, this is just beautiful!! Great idea to use the die as a stencil. I just might try to CASE this one.
Thanks, Gerry.
