Today’s card highlights the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Bundle and Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. Both are from the holiday catalog and currently available. The dashes of Coastal Cabana against Cajun Craze make my heart go pitter pat!
WHAT I LOVE ! While much of the card gets it’s WOW! from the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder, my favorite part is the mix of the sentiment and shapes created with the Autumn Leaves Dies. Zoom in to enjoy the detail of the tiny dots that border the two die cuts! WOWZA!
NEED SKETCH INSPIRATION? The layout of today’s thank you card was inspired by the newest addition to my Stampin’ Pretty Sketchbook, Sketch #74 which I shared yesterday!

Wow! What a great sketch and color combo! I love the texture you added but sure wish someone would use the online exclusive falling leaf folder. I’m on the fence about it and would love to see it used! Thanks for all the tutorials.
Hi Crystal, You can see the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder in action on my creation here. I hope that inspires you! It is a fabulous embossing folder, I would snag it up in a heartbeat.
