Leaves, leaves, leaves!

Yesterday I posted leaf cards for Eureka, so today I am posting leaf cards for Biblical Impressions. I love how different techniques can create a completely different look for the same image!

This first card is just a nice, simple monochromatic card, a quick and easy card for a no-frills recipient.

For these leaves, I used gold leaf. I am happy with the look, though I think I could have gotten the same effect with metallic/mica powders; gold leaf is shown to best effect with stamps that have thicker lines/images.
