Autumn Leaves for Hero Arts Scramble #160

Betty hosted the the Hero Arts Flickr group scramble over the weekend.  Her challenge was to use Metallic with an Autumn theme.

I used a set of leaves that Hero Arts released in 2011.

I stamped the leaves in various Metallic Delicata inks and then smooshed the inks onto an acrylic block and painted the leaves.   I used a Green Spectrum Aqua pen as a watercolour wash for the background.  The base and sentiment are actually dark grey (looks black in my photo)

Thanks to Betty for such a fun challenge.
