Leafy Square Thank You

I am having so much fun with the dies and stamps from Simon Says Stamp's STAMPtember® release!  Today, I used the beautiful Leafy Square die and a lovely sentiment from CZ Design's All The Thanks sentiment stamp set to make a thank you card...

I loved the simplicity of keeping the die white, but was a bit challenged when it came to a background.  I chose a tiny polka dotted background on kraft colored card stock, using versa mark and copper embossing powder.  LOVE the copper color for Fall!  I chose to use the same embossing powder for the sentiment to keep the continuity.  Layered the leaves 4 times, then popped up the panel on the card.  I also rounded the corners of the white panel to mimic the die cut square.  Here's a close up...

There's a new release coming to Simon next week...can't wait to show you what's new!!  For now...having so much fun with all the wonderful stamps and dies from STAMPtember!!

Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa
