Happy Fall - Unity Stamp Monthly Challenge

Unity's Monthly Challenge (as opposed to the Sketch challenge) was to create anything using leaves.  I went to my Harvest of Memories stamp set and used the four leaf stamps and the "happy fall" stamp to make the design below.  Hardest part was keeping those darn stems attached to the leaves as I was cutting them out.  Stamping on different pattern papers and cardstock was going to make the design really pop, so I used two fall pattern papers, a Bo Bunny dot paper, and then solid green and brown cardstock for the leaves, and I stamped in brown ink.  The sentiment was stamped onto the cream cardstock.  I then framed my sentiment with the leaves, popping some to give a little more contrast to the design. 

As much of a hassle as those stems were . . . I'm so happy I left them on! 

Happy Stamping!
