Join us! It is DIE week at Just Us Girls. Bobby is challenging us to make a card using LEAF dies.
I picked an older cover die from Altenew and inlaid all the pieces. I just love the final look of an inlaid card. First, I made an 8.5 x 11" sprayed panel. If you spray a panel, get a big box and just go for it... spray the panel with all the fall colors you have. I used metallic sprays in red, orange, yellow, green, purple and gold from Distress, Dylusions and Heidi Swapp. After quartering the panel, I die cut the cover plate four times, and inlaid into four different bases. The look is so different with the different backgrounds (from left gold, brown, dark gold and copper Stardream card bases). A layered, die cut sentiment and glitter dots finished the cards.

Gorgeous spraying! Awesome Autumn card
Beautifully done, Elizabeth! The autumn colors mixed with the gold kick up the elegance notch!
That sprayed panel made for some gorgeous leaves! These are all so pretty and I do love the inlaid look.
Those metallic sprays make for some pretty leaves Elizabeth and I do love an inlaid die too. Fabulous cards!
Your sprayed and inlaid leaf cards are gorgeous, Elizabeth. Love these.

Wow Elizabeth! Spectacular colours and inlaid perfectly to those leaves. Just stunning.
You are the inlay queen, Elizabeth, and the sprays gave wonderful color to your leaves. I have a plastic box that makes spray clean-up easy.
Oh wow--all that inlaying! Can imagine all the shimmer from the sprays and each background made for a beautiful card! Thanks for having me guest design this month!
