Leaf print

 

I was inspired to make this card by the challenge at CAS mix up card challenge.

Not too many leaves have fallen yet in my garden but I managed to find a couple to play with.

I decided to follow the Heather Telford tutorial that CAS mix up card challenge shared. I made a few prints with acrylic paints and gelli plates and then decided to try brushos. As is often the case this print is actually taken off my craft mat before I cleared away. I had some brushos on the mat and I sprayed them and rolled my brayer over. Then I put the leaf into it and made the print. I really like the way it looks like the leaf is blowing apart.

My sentiment is one of my favourite ones and is from an old Crafter's Companion autumn stamp set.

The card also fits the challenge at Country View challenge for Autumn colours/and or Halloween. So I am going to enter there. I will probably be back with another make as I did make quite a few prints!
