Less is More week 41 Leaves

This weeks challenge over at Less is More is LEAVES. Now if only Chrissie and Mandi had waited a couple of weeks my French Foliage set would have arrived!!! Karen said I could use hers while we were there at the weekend but inspiration didn't strike and I was all crafted out:))





I inked up the leaves on a hydrangea stamp from Papermania with  Big n Juicy spice and stamped them randomly across an A6 card.  The sentiment is from an old See Dee set using the same ink.
I scored lines either side of the sentiment.









This card used the same ink on a Rubber Stampede stamp which was one of the first stamps I bought. Similar format as the one above.





I much prefer the my first card but thought I'd post both anyway:)

Thanks for taking the time to visit and leaving me your thoughts:)
