For Janelle's School Ruled MIX challenge today.
I couldn't easily find my grid paper - so I used some knitting chart paper which comes to the same thing...gave it a couple of coats of gesso.
Stamped the leaf, embossed with clear EP, masked, and stamped Wonderfully Worn in Wild Honey.
Used a wet brush to add some purple spatters with an Inktense pencil, removed the mask and coloured the leaf with Inktense pencils. Yes, it's not glorious vivid colours - most of the leaves here aren't! I tore the edges, punched the top and sponged one edge with green.
Base is Bazzill embossed, sanded and sponged, with a Stickles edging.

I like everything about this. The e.f., the small touch of twine, the sponging, the offset spiral piece, the sanding, stickles edges. Perfection. Going into my fave's

Oh my goodness I love how you used this TH image and love the color purple behind it. Perfectly put together and beautifully finished with the added splatters and distressing.

Love the distressed look for your blueprint leaf. The background is wonderful, the stickles edging is just the right amount of sparkle, really neat card!
