Joanne has a wonderful variety themed board for us at the TicTacToe challenge #134 this week. I went right across the middle with leaves, thanks and shades of brown.
I haven't used my ginkgo leaves from a PTI set (Harvest Berries) for ages - so pulled them out and die cut from watercolor paper. Smooshed them around in some greens and then used a colored pencil for some shading. Did the same with the orangey stalks in the background. Made the background with a plaid die mounted on the same kraft color card base. Then arranged my leaves in the copper pot, added the sentiment and a few sequins and done!
Have some fun creating a card with the ideas from our board this week and enter our challenge for a chance to a future guest designer.
I love ginkgo and I love your card. I once had three gingko trees, unfortunately they died last year when it was so hot. And did you know that you can also make tea from ginkgo? I have already drunk it in several variations, very tasty.
