This was one of my convention swaps from last year. I stamped the En Francais background on Shimmery White cardstock. Over that I stamped a leaf from Falling Leaves in Versamark and embossed it with clear embossing powder. Then I sprayed the piece with a color mist made from alcohol and Soft Suede reinker. To remove the excess color from the leaf, I swirled a Stampin' Sponge in a circular motion starting from the center, which left the extra color around the leaf as a shadow.
