I really enjoyed making this card for the following:
CASology - Week #14 challenge, where the cue word is "Leaf".
Simon Says...Dies and/or Punches, where we are to use dies or punches.

The Meadow Leaf is cut from white cardstock that has been inked with various Distress Inks.
The kraft card base is cut with the Meadow Leaf die.
To create subtle texture, the PTI-Linen Impression Plate is used on the kraft card base.
A strip of patterned paper is popped up with foam adhesive on the bottom of the card base.
The sentiment is embossed.
To add interest, hemp cord is wrapped around, and tied in a bow.
