Hello...
I've had a couple of good days and yesterday I got a few projects done for the Thursdays Club, however, today was a different story...
Fortunately I was seeing the therapist this morning for more manipulation and acupuncture... The news I got was not what I was expecting and kind of set me back... I felt sorry for myself for a whole 2 hours Lol! But I'm a fighter and determined not to give in, so here I am with another card which I thought would fit the bill at both
And
I started by stamping and embossing the centre panel of my cardstock and then made some leaves by smooshing various distress inks onto white cardstock before die cutting them
I added some dry embossing for a little bit of interest using some frame dies and then smooched my die cut sentiment in Versamark and embossed it.
I absolutely adore fall colours and wish the season lasted longer. Well, at least I can capture it in a card.
Till soon

Speechless! Goodness, Roz, this card is spectacular! Simple, elegant and just perfect! Thanks for joining the Double D, "Leave it to me" Challenge.
What a bummer that you had a setback, Ros, but I know you'll keep fighting. Just wish I was close enough to come give you a hug & a cup of tea! You are always so creative & here's another great example! Love the combination of colors & leaf images & the dry embossing puts it over the top! Sending positive thoughts & virtual hugs, my friend!
Beautiful, beautiful card Ros! Love the embossed framing in the center of the card...SO pretty! And your water coloured leaves are just GORGEOUS...I wish Fall and the colors lasted a bit longer too! Ours are all on the ground waiting to be raked up after 2 1/2 days of non stop rain and wind! But anyway, lovely card my friend!! :0)
What a stunning card Ros! Oh how I have missed your amazing CAS talents! Just wanted to pop in and say hello my friend. It's been a long year and I have lost track of so many of my bloggy friends during my absence. I hope all has been well with you and you've made lots of time for crafting during your health struggles!
Have you been having lovely autumn weather? Our temperatures have been up and down this autumn, but at least the nights are getting cooler and I'm thankful for that. We've had lots of rain and I'm hoping that's a sign that we will get lots of snow this year. Wouldn't that be great!! lol. sending hugs :)
Sorry that you were down but what better way to lift your spirits than to create a beautiful card. The embossing on the background is perfect for the colorful fall leaves. It is so clever to attach them to the vine of stamped leaves, Fabulous, Ros.
I have never seen a card like this Ros...love the layout and the dry embossing with the dies...will be filing this one away x I am so sorry to hear about the 'medical' news in the post and hope the news wasn't as bad as it sounds!!!!????? x Love and hugs x
Gorgeous Fall Watercoloured and die cut leaves to add to your pretty stamped leaves and CAS background. Love the Crisp, Clean, Fall design of your beauty, Ros. Take care my friend. Thank you for sharing with us at CAS Watercolour...Hugs!!!
I love the card - there are so many interesting things in it! Sorry to hear, though, that you got unexpected news concerning your health. But I love your fighting spirit! You will win in the end!
Such a lovely card with the pretty leaves and dry embossing! Lovely sentiment, too! I hope you didn’t have too much of a set back with your news today. Hang in there and take care, hugs!!
Ros, sorry about the set back but glad making such beautiful cards cheered you up. These are all beautiful leaf/fall cards. The colours are so so pretty. thanks for joining us at CAS Watercolour :)
Oh I love how you've embossed this - really different. Sorry for your health troubles.
Gorgeous fall card, Ros...I too love fall leaves and the color they give to us!
Beautiful and cute card, Ros. Lovely leaves and pretty colours. I love the frame dies. Kisses, my friend.
Wow, you sure did fit both challenges beautifully. I'll say it again... I SO LOVE your style! I like how you dry embossed after the stamping and die cuts were in place. It makes your paper look very puffy. Really a cute leaf vine image, and those leaves are perfect with it. Darn it, I'm sorry to hear you had a set back. I've been away so I'm just now reading this. I hope things have improved. Keep fighting!
So sorry you are not feeling well, if we were closer we could moan and groan together lol, as my right leg and foot drive me a bit (a lot actually) crazy so much so it ruins my sleep! Now onto your card..it is stunning so beautifully created with the bit of shimmer! You take care my friend...and I was super happy to see you join us at Double D....get better you hear!!!
I love fall colors too, that is one beautiful card!
Beautiful creation Ros. Great colours and great design also! Thanks for sharing with us at Double "D" Challenge.
