Shopping our Stash #176 - Leaf me Alone!



OK, not exactly. We don't want you to leaf us alone at Shopping our Stash - we want you to play along with us and use some leafy stuff. I dug out this ancient Hero Arts ginkgo leaf (I bought it on ebay, so I've had it at least since 2005 - and I bought it used!)


Supplies: Hero Arts ginkgo leaf stamp; Paper Smooches sentiment; Market Street Stamps burlap background stamp; Versamark & clear detail EP; Peeled Paint distress ink; Olive Green glimmer mist from Tattered Angels

After stamping & embossing the leaf, I painted it in with glimmer mist for extra shine, and then added some splatter. Simple and easily mailable card for that person you're missing :)

I can't beleaf you don't have something with a leaf to play with - so join us before next Monday,November 10th!

WOW! Ginko leaf! Who would have thought I'd find it on a card .... so cool! I take ginko everyday, when I remember. Supposed to help improve memory... I think. Not sure it's working, though!
