villanious potion fall leaves card

Hi there crafty friends! Today I have a card to share with you using the newest Distress color, Villainous Potion. I love the combo of fall colors on this one, and I used so many of the new products on it including the Distress Ink, Oxide, Oxide Spray and Distress Embossing Glaze. To create this card, I started by making the main panel and embossing a piece of Distress Watercolor Cardstock with the Foliage Texture Fades Embossing folder. I ran mine through my Vagabond three times. 


I used some Simon Says Stamp blending brushes to blend Distress Inks in Villainous Potion, Fossilized Amber, Carved Pumpkin, Festive Berries and Aged Mahogany. I made circles of each color then added some more layers being careful about the colors I was blending next to each other. I gave it a mist of water and then dried it with my heat tool and added some wonky stitching to the outside edge. 

To create the leaves, I cut 2 leaves from the Sizzix Skeleton Leaves dies and colored one with Villainous Potion Distress Oxide Spray and the other with Villainous Potion Distress Embossing Glaze. I love the contrast of the soft leaf and the super shiny one. Finally, to finish the card, I stamped a sentiment from the Stampers Anonymous Observations stamp set onto a piece of kraft colored cardstock using the Villainous Potion Distress Oxide Ink Pad. I adhered the panel to an A2 kraft notecard, adhered the leaves to the panel, and then added the sentiment over it using foam tape. 

I hope you will try this combo out for yourself! If you do, I would love it if you tagged me. If you are not following me on Instagram, I would love it if you did as well :)
