Bonnie over at CAS Mix Challenge is having us discovering the coolest organic technique. I’ve been pressing so many plants around the house, trying different varieties and enjoy each surprising outcome. This is truly fascinating, nature at its best. Autumn has to be the best hiking season where I live. The colours are breathtaking and so are the leaves I collected. Onto this card to play along with the OLC Autumnal Challenge over at Less is More #454 and, the gals over at CAS Mix Up October Challenge are getting us into botanicals PRINTS. I pressed with my embossing machine three different leaves onto 2 pieces of cardstock. I stamped and then gold heat embossed “bonjour!” and that was it. Isn’t that sooo COOL?
Thank you so much for stopping by, HUGz, Joanna
You sure got some beautiful colors out of these leaves. Make for a lovely Autumnal card for the CAS Mix Up challenge.

Thank YOU for sharing. Having pressed soooo many, I discovered that the underside of the leaves give the best colour transfer. The top side has a gloss protecting them from the rain, nature’s wonders (the creator definitely knew what SHE😉 was doing).
