I really don't know what possesses me to decide to fussy cut and paper piece such tiny designs but here I've done it again! I cut lots of little leaves, popped them up on Pop Dots and added Glossy Accents to them. The colours I used are from this week's ColourQ challenge and I'm also going to enter this over at Unity's monthly challenge (Autumn Harvest), Picture Perfect Creations (Fall/Halloween Specialty Challenge) and Create's Fall challenge. I had a lovely surprise arrive in the mail yesterday. Awhile back Amy Tsuruta had asked for some crafty storage ideas and I linked her up to my Craft Cave pictures. As a thank you she sent out a little care package with stamps, notepaper, buttons and, of course, a fabulous card! I was so excited although I'm not happy with Bermuda Customs. They opened the package to "inspect" it and clearly just crammed everything back in and bent the card. :( Typical. I still love it though - especially the delicate stitching!
Supplies Used:
Cardstock: (White) Bazzill Basics, (Lucky Limeade, Pumpkin Pie, Rich Razzleberry) Stampin' Up
Stamps: (Image from Beauty Tree Itty Bitty, sentiment from August 2010 KOM - All You Need) Unity Stamp Co
Ink: (Early Espresso, Rich Razzleberry) Stampin' Up

Beautiful cards from all three of you! I admire your attention to detail with the fussy cutting and glossy accents.
Love the embossed leaves on the tree card, and how it's popped out! It's one striking card!! :)
I LOVE those glossy accent leaves!
Oh, that's a lot of teeny tiny cutting work! But totally worth it, especially when you add the glossy accents! Beautiful card. And so are the sweet cards from your friends... and some nice thank you swag, too!

Love all those tiny leaves (thank you for the frenzied cutting) and that awesome green label... I can feel a shopping spree coming on! Another fab card Jen!
I think your fussy cut leaves are just lovely - a super design. And the cards you received area also stunning!
I love your fall tree! You must have infinite patience to cut them all out and wait for the gloss to dry. But the result is fabulous! Thanks for joining us this week at the ColourQ!
