I immediately thought of the metal tape art for using something from a hardware store. Generally I go much grungier with it. This time I used an assortment of leaf die-cuts under the tape, and burnished them well before adding a little gold acrylic, and two green alcohol inks, one was pearlescent. When dry I added some Inka gold and some gold and orange Stickles smeared over some of the leaves.
The print is something from nature, taken from my stash. Acrylics and white copy paper. I embossed the sentiment with clear EP to help it stand out more.
