Three Leaves

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I pulled out an old and much loved die set for this card.


I used Jen B's sketch from Freshly Made Sketches for this card.  Here's the sketch...


It seemed like it begged for long, skinny leaves.

These leaves were cut from watercolor paper and colored with Distress re-inkers.
