I love fall colors...and distress inks are the perfect inks to add to your cards to have gorgeous fall colors. For today's card, I pulled out a few different colors and inked up a piece of scrap card stock. I then die cut the maple leaves from Frantic Stamper to have a variety of colors/gradient looks across the leaves. To finish off my card and add a little texture I attached a touch of twine. The small leaves were super easy to adhere with mini glue dots.
Above shows a close up of the fabulous details on these dies. They cut perfectly!

What a sweet card, Lynn! Love those adorable, little leaves! Pretty colors too! ♥
I so often design a card that is guided by what I want to say to the recipient ... yours speaks volumes, Lynn ... and starts with 'gorgeous.'

CAS perfection! I just love those little maple leaves and how you've arranged them around the twine - you've captured Autumn perfectly! Jill
Those little leaves are so cute and make this the perfect Autumn card. Love how you coloured the leaves too, never thought to use orange and yellow etc so thank you so much for the inspiration. Its such a wonderful CAS design too!
Eeek! I need those, little leaves! So versatile, and ever so fun! And I just love your color choices!
Fabulous design, and I just love the focal point you made with your leaves and twine.
What a stunning autumn card and what a good idea to distress the card stock before die cutting.
The way you've colored and arranged those leaves is perfect, Lynn. I feel like they just floated down from the tree.
