Autumn Greetings Maple Leaf

One more entry for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge "Fall/ Autumn."

I left the background of this card white because the huge Simon Says Stamp "Giant Maple Leaf"

deserves all the attention. Using water color paper, I added lots of Distress Ink in fall colors and 

then applied Tim Holtz Distress Crackle Paint - clear Rock Candy.

Hard to see in the photo, but the leaf has a distinct surface which adds to the appeal.

The Gina K Mini Fanciful Flourishes add a special touch along with the Nuvo drops.

The embossed greeting is from an older Inkadinkado stamp set.
