Leaf Alternatives....

I have be so obsessed with the "Lighthearted Leaves" the original Leaf set in the Big catalog "Vintage Leaves" has been untouched!  And I have seen some gorgeous samples with this set.  SO my focus is going to turn to these leaves for a few days and how you can use then for more than FALL!

First up is those little leaves, not sure what they are, but this Wreath is so easy to create with 11 leaves and a 2 1/2 inch Circle punch.  Stamp and cut out 11 leaves.  I used Mossy Meadow, then sponged with Old Olive.  Punch a 2 1/2 Circle from coordinating card stock that will peek thru under the leaves,  Start at the top and line 'em up.  Use a dimensional at the base of each leaf and let the stem follow the curve of the Circle.  Stamp a Sentiment to fit the 1 3/8 Circle punch and pop up in the middle.  I used Rich Razzleberry Cotton ribbon and "Into the Woods' Designer paper for the background.
