StFu: card one

StFu (uhh… Start to Finish Up.  What did you think I meant?!)
StFu is what I’m going to be calling my – Wednesday Walkthru’s.  This weeks StFu is:  Card 1 – Fall theme 

So just to clarify: the StFu is obvisously a “walk thru” on creating a project!

I did this card for this month’s color challenge.  🙂

I didn’t like the white ink on that light light background so I stamped it again (shadow stamping) with Vintage Photo.
next add faux Stiching with a white gel pen
and use the corner chomper to round the bottom corners.

Adhere the fake leaf with dimensionals.
