The leaves in our neighborhood are starting to change colors and fall to the ground. I love autumn leaves. The colors of the different leaves can be so inspiring--deep reds, bright oranges, crisp yellows. I get a lot of color inspiration from nature. Here is a card that was inspired by the leaves falling all around us.
There was a lot of sponging in this card. Now that I just got some new sponges I am a sponging maniac. Anyway--I sponged the kraft paper with Soft Suede ink to bring out the texture. I also sponged each of the leaves with the coordinating paper to give them some depth. To add to the rustic feel of the card I sponged the center where the greeting is.
