Hello friends!
I have yet another take on this Layered Leaf Die from Penny Black.
This time, I tried it with the inlaid die-cutting. I know.... that seemed like "nuts".
However, I did it and it is A-OK as long as you have some planning-ahead.

I happened to have a piece of pre-colored watercolor. I decided to use it for the leaves.
For the outline of the leaf die, I inked it up with various shades of Distress Oxide.
I used an extra piece of alcohol-inked Stitched Looped Frame to ground the design and added splatter based on the colors of the leaves and frame.
It truly was a bit of a process to make sure each tiny bits of the leaves falling back to the right spots. In the end, I think it is still well worth it. At least , it took my stress and anxiety away when I worked on it. This is the bonus of card-making!
I trust that you are taking good care of yourself and family. Please stay healthy and safe.
Thank you for stopping by!
