My Colour Combo Green/Brown/Red Cards

I'm really loving this colour combo right now. Greens,Browns and Red.
I find it such a pleasure to clear my desk and just have a selection of coordinating papers and embellishments infront of me and nothing else. For me this is such a good way to get my mojo flowing and create.
So when I needed to get some cards made last week, this is exactly what I did and this is what I made with a variety of Cosmo Cricket and My Minds Eye papers.



I made the flowers by roughly cutting 3 circles from patterned papers, distressing the edges and fastening together with a brad.
Supplies : Cosmo Cricket Papers - The Boyfriend and Ocotber Afternoon Alphas.




After adding the Flowers to this card, I've cut some leaves by hand and distressed the edges, then scrunched them up before sticking down to give a 3d look.
Supplies: My Minds Eye Papers - Quite Contrary., Blooms,Ribbon and October Afternoon Alphas.



And this last card has been made using the same selection of papers from My Minds Eye and the same October Afternoon Alphas. I just can't get enough of those right now.

3 Easy to make cards.
