I wanted to use this Oak leaf stamp by PSX and gold EP but when embossed it lost the detail of stamp so I decided to use debossing! I love how the faux metal technique shows the details of the stamp. This piece of alcohol ink background has always made me think of autumn so I thought it was the perfect piece to use and I like the idea of using the tree stamp with the leaf close up.
I hope you like!

Wow...what a great card. I was scanning the gallery and your card popped right at me. I love the background and the single leaf is so beautiful. I thinks it time for me to go and play.

Truly 'out of the box' inking! Love the depth of this card that you got from combining the inking and embossing. Of course my jaw dropped when I saw the custom made gold embellishment! TFS - great inspiration piece.
