Stampwilly Designs: A Fallen leaf

A Fallen leaf

Here is my last challenge card for Two Peas. The challenge is Beautiful Leaves and we were to use leaves and alcohol inks. I dropped alcohol inks onto glossy cardstock and let them run. I would spritz a little, every now again, with 91% alcohol so the inks would move around better. I then stamped the leaves over the inked background. The leaves are starting to change here and I can't wait to see all the beautiful colors!
