Dynamic Duos #74 - Grateful For You

Are you ready for some warm fall colors?  This week's colors for Dynamic Duos Challenge #74 certainly said autumn to me.  Take a look.
I thought of leaves changing color and the crunch of leaves under your feet as you walk on the paths and sidewalks.  And, since I hadn't yet used my Leaf Prints stamps and dies...what better time?

I used my dies as embossing or impression plates, to get the impression of the leaves without cutting through the card stock.  Then I cut around the left edge of the leaves and placed a piece of saffron card stock behind them.  The leaves are stamped in the 2 challenge colors and crumb cake (a neutral color).  I love these colors together!
Now it's time to click on over to the Dynamic Duos blog and see what my oh-so-talented team mates have created.

Thanks for taking a look!
