No autumn leaf stamp to be found in my massive collection of stamps so I went mad and did it myself. Far more red in this than in most leaves we see in the UK but I am calling that artistic licence. I am thinking of sending this to the guy who did our lounge renovations recently as his birthday is in a few days.

Good job with doing the leaf freehand. I had a smile when I read that you went mad and did it yourself. The colors are so pretty, too. I think this would be a great guy card. Bet he would appreciate it,

You can call it an American leaf. I see plenty of red out my window right now. Well done free-handing your leaf! Yes, the guy who did all that work on your lounge definitely deserves this lovely card :0)

This is a perfect guy card! I love all these pretty colors you managed to get into this hand drawn oak leaf. Too bad they don't look like this all the time~

Bravo for your pretty hand drawn leaf. These colors are what I'd expect to see in a fall leaf - no artistic license required. The CAS treatment and colors make for a wonderful masculine card.

Super free hand. I have an oak leaf stamp, unmounted, somewhere in my stuff. Arghghghg. Couldn't find it. In my neck of the woods, there isn't a lot of red either, more orange and yellow. Pretty watercoloring.
