I used wisteria leaves for this card. I picked them green off the vine by my front door, then ironed them between sheets of paper to dry them out. They did fall off the stem so they are not arranged as a wisteria compound leaf.

I love the samples in the challenge and love this pretty card, your golden leaves really pop against the black bg, beautiful embossed sentiment too and I love the idea from your tray at the entrance

So very stunning in all the metallic tones on black! Thanks for the tutorial! I have a flat iron that I put on the lowest setting and it worked great (leaf was between paper).

How gorgeous, Beverly!!!! I love your tray of found items. I tend to do that too, mostly stones, rocks, leaves, some interesting things like lichen, feathers (illegal but I can't help myself). I have created a decorative tray type thing myself. What a great TLC you put together!
