Take Care Leaf

Happy Friday and Happy Veterans Day.  Enjoy the long weekend but do pause to think about *why* we have a holiday.

I've got a card to share today:


This card has already gone in the mail to a friend who I think needs to be reminded to take time to take care of herself.  I used this week's Freshly Made Sketch:


And I paired it with the Color Throwdown:


I used Real Red, Smoky Slate, Bumblebee, and Tangerine Tango for my colors.  I had tea on the brain when I started this, and I actually stamped a teacup from Cup of Tea and watercolored it, but in the end I decided these colors demanded a fall leaf.

Have a great weekend, y'all!

Supplies, all SU!
Stamps:  Gather Together, Cup of Tea
Ink:  Versamark, Real Red, Bumblebee, Tangerine Tango, Smoky Slate
Paper:  Smoky Slate, Thick Basic White, Plaid Tidings DSP
Accessories:  Clear EP, Gathered Leaves dies, Stitched So Sweetly dies, Matte Decorative Dots, Dimensionals
