Crafty Catz challenge - ATG with optional twist

Good morning a late and quick post from me as i am suffering to day with headache as i went to the eye hospital yesterday for scans and drops.

So my post is a day late as i thought I had scheduled but heyho senior moment no it didnt.

Crafty Catz challenge this week is hosted by the lovely talented and crazy Janette.

Our theme is now always ANYTHING GOES but for those looking for a challenge our twist is AUTUMN

All the team has taken the challenge so a great place to head over for some inspiration.

Our sponsor this week is THE EAST WIND

so here is my little card which started out as a tag but as it is A6 size guess i could attach to a very lage present if needed.

Image is Scraf Lover and is coloured with Promarkers and cut out with A spellbinders die and matted onto a larger one from the set.

The leaf is a marrianne  Die which comes with the vines I have used different coloured card and then distressed inks and the edges have Copper gliding wax on then.

all matted onto some beige card which has been embossed with a fiskers leaf plate and then the embossing highlighted with distressed inks. Matted in gold mirri card then wrapped with some lush ribbon.

Well hope you like no DP on thsi one and just love that leaf die which was a die i have been trying to get for ages and arrived as a present for a very generous and dear friend.

Well hope you have a lovely weekend and hope you will join us in the challenge.

Thanks for popping by off to get another tablet. 

Bye for now.
