Natural Leaves

I had a lady at church give me some books, inside she had put different leaves over the years.  She knew that I made cards and gave me quite a beautiful selection of them from her time collecting.  Here's a couple of the cards that I made and returned to her in thanks.  These cards are A7 sized (5x7");
 
I also have a bunch that are various flowers, much smaller in size that these leaves.  I will show them periodically as I finish the cards off.  Much of them will get donated to the church's bazaar which raises money each year in November.

Fab cards Holley. Nice to see something different. Thank you for your lovely comments and your understanding on my blog. It did make me laugh when you said keep those pearls flying. X

What a beautiful gift to receive and a wonderful card to say thank you. Look forward to seeing some of your other cards made with the leaves.

Both cards look wonderful with you. The pressing of the leaves has retained a lovely colour on them. I look forward to seeing what else you make using the pressed leaves and flowers you received.

These are beautiful - refreshing to see the old art of flower#leaf pressing is still around!! (Now where are mine???)
