This card is primarily for the color challenge and the mojo Monday challenge but I was also playing with leaves from our garden with the technique challenge for this week and decided to use the end result as the pressing turned out green.
It is a straightforward card and didn't take that long to do once I had found the DP, that took a bit of searching lol but has all the challenge colors in it and I really love it.
This color combo is one of my favorites right back to when I was a teenager and had a moo moo dress (anyone remember them?) with these colors, rich chocolate brown, deep rich green and a mustard or gold, just a splash.
Cheers

These are some of my favourite colours too - perfectly matched with the design paper. Not too many leaves/flowers out down here at the moment to use to stamp. Roll on Spring.

More pretty leaf prints! I love how this one turned out. The DP you found with all the colors in it is a wonderful background! I love the dark ribbon and the design.
