A new die set with corner leaf clusters, and a very old die set with a label shape in an oval frame.  They look good together in this simple layout.

• Patterned paper is from PTI new leaf pattern pack (tone-on-tone prints - retired). 
• Dies are PTI Psalm reflections: October (leaf clusters) and framed out #7 (retired).
