A masculine birthday card for a friend who actually lives in a cabin in the woods, so I wanted it to look as "organic" as possible. The leaves are done with various Earth Elements markers, and then "washed" with the aquapainter and Summer Sun to blend the colors a little. The button is Mellow Moss, rubbed with some Basic Brown ink to muddy it up a little.

Lovely, so realistic. Great job on coloring and blending those leaves, and your layout is also nice with the leaves extending beyond the center frame. Very nice card!
