GOLDEN LEAVES..


Hello everyone..

Another beautiful day today but I had no inclination to go outside and do anything..I just potted in my craftroom all day and got no where..one of those days..

Never mind I used some golden butter papers and made leaves last week..


A client used to save me these papers for a they were always washed a pressed..lol..


Quite a thick foil but you still have to gentle..


They are pretty and delicate leaves like golden maiden hair fern....



And look so nice with my yellow flowers...


Added some grey leaves and white tendril like leaves..


Used a big Congratulations die cut but no other, so I can add to it when necessary..oop's one gone already, just added " On Your Anniversary"..done.

Thanks so much for stopping by ad I'll see you tomorrow..

Luv CHRISSYxx

Brilliant use of the butter papers to make those exquisite gilded leafy stems on your beautiful cards. What a terrible hobby this is, though... I never throw anything away!!
