Freshly Made Leaf

I'm rushing to make the deadline!  This Freshly Made Sketch  led me to a fall leaf cut from a Bigz die from Tim Holtz. It's called Tattered Leaves.  I used a variety of powders and water to create the background color before the die cutting.  The central piece was dry-embossed with another Tim Holtz embossing folder, and I found the sentiment on a sheet of clear stamps. I added a little copper accent with the copper thread. (Edit: this card is different from the card at the link because I decided it needed a "frame" around the central layer.)
