It's so cold

I hope you are warm as this cold front has taken over a large part of the US. The huge snowfall in western New York is amazing and I feel bad for those who are experiencing it. That being said, I haven't been out of the house for many days. I can't do this cold.

Can you stand another card made with this Acorn embossing folder! I embossed it on black cardstock and rubbed metallic gold and copper on the leaves. The large leaf was punched and variegated  red and gold gilding flakes added. The sentiment is gold embossed and popped up. 

Anything unrelated to elephants is irrelephant.




Be kind to one another.

Hi Brenda, a pretty sparkly card to celebrate Autumn, love the gilded leaf. Hope you are warm and cosy, it's freezing here in my part of Australia today, high winds and another Antarctic blast coming from the south.... Have a wonderful week... Megan

This embossing folder with leaves is just great. It looks wonderful with metallic rubbed. I heard about snow in the USA. We have winter temperatures too and are awaiting snow.
