For this card, I stamped the large leaf randomly on Baja Breeze cardstock with Baja Breeze ink and then used my long rectangle Nestabilities to cut out the sentiment panel, which is layered onto Brushed Copper cardstock. I then stamped the base leaf panel with the Linen background stamp, again using Baja Breeze ink. Edges are sponged with Baja and Not Quite Navy.
The large dimensional leaf was stamped on Not Quite Navy cardstock with Encore Metallic Bronze ink and embossed with copper EP. I watercolored it with Twinkling H20's (Bashful Blue) and then covered it with Crystal Effects. The photo doesn't show it, but it has a kind of Cloisonne look to it. Very pretty.
