MEADOW LEAF AND SHADOW

I cased this card by Doni - I loved the simplicity of it and wanted to use my revived shadow stamp again.  The watercolored paper was just a scrap I had left over from something.  I love using the liquid platinum on die cuts - makes it all look so elegant.  No sentiment on this one.  Probably could be used for a sympathy, thinking of you or just a notecard - would be fun to do in different colors as a set of notecards for a gift.  I used some dots I bought from Deanna Dean to adhere the leaf and give it a little lift.  These are great to raise an image to give a bit of dimension and are small enough or can be cut to fit lots of spaces.
Supplies:
Stamp: HA shadow stamp
Inks: HA silver shadow ink; Versamark embossing ink
Other: MB meadow leaf die; SB rectangle die; Ranger liquid platinum embossing powder

Thanks for looking and your kind comments.  Betty
