✨ Welcome to this month's Group 4 Artisan Design Team Instagram Hop! ✨
This month we were challenged to create with the beautiful Simply Leaves Bundle, & I wanted to show just how much more this bundle can do than simply create autumn cards. 🍂💕
I created three very different projects to showcase just how versatile this bundle can be:
🍃 For my first project, I created a soft, dreamy landscape by adding ink onto a clear block, spritzing with water & stamping it onto watercolour paper. Once dry, I stamped one of the delicate skeleton leaves over the background to create a simple yet striking focal point.
🍃 For my second project, I took the bundle in a completely different direction. I built up a richly textured background using torn paper, ink blending & an embossed leaf design before layering the heat embossed & punched leaves to create lots of depth and movement. It's a reminder that leaves aren't just for autumn—they're perfect all year round.
🌹 And finally... I couldn't resist seeing what else the leaf punch could create! With a little imagination (and some pink vellum), the punched leaves became a beautifully dimensional rose. I love discovering unexpected ways to stretch my craft supplies.
What I love most about the Simply Leaves Bundle is how effortlessly it encourages you to think beyond the obvious. Whether your style is clean and simple, rich and layered, or somewhere in between, this bundle has so much creative potential.
