Something Old to Something New

I was walking through the park and noticed that the leaves were already falling from the trees!
I thought it would be fun to make something new from the dead leaves so I pulled out my heart punch,

and cut out lots of little heart shaped leaves.

I sprinkled them on the ground,
and made cute heart shaped vines!

I blended them in with real vines growing up my building for a little touch of whimsy.
