Maple Leaf

This was made forSimply Less is Moore Challenge week-41-one-layer-leaves. I hope they will accept just one leaf.


I am pretty sure this stamp is from The Stampin Place. I bought it unmounted several years ago. I cut my card with a Spellbinder die, and traced a smaller die and colored it in keeping with the one-layer theme. The leaf was also colored with Copics and I added a little Stickles.

I like this a lot. The spellbinders die and frame creates a perfect frame for the leave stamp. Thank you for the inspiration.
