The larger Smoky Slate background was stamped with the lines from Gorgeous Grunge using Whisper White Craft Ink.
The smaller Smoky Slate layer was stamped with the woven chevron stamp from the Truly Grateful set then lightly stamped with Coastal Cabana and the splatter stamp. Whisper White cardstock was stamped with Coastal Cabana lines then the sentiment in Real Red.
The more solid leaf was stamped with Coastal Cabana and the outlines with Real Red then quickly heat embossed with Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder for some sparkle (which you can just barely see in the above picture)! The narrow Real Red Ribbon and Rhinestones complete the card.

Love your leaf card! It is so pretty.
Love how the white ink looks like "bleached" out areas on the card. Really gives a fun look! The addition of the glittery embossing powder really gives this card some great sparkle.
Like Lisa, I'm most taken with the white on the smoky slate...that's an awesome look! Very pretty non-traditional leaf card! Great job with the color challenge this week!
I thought you used bleach for your card! What a great background you created! And I love the addition of the rhinestones in the leaf - nice touch.
So very pretty!! Love the white background!! That looks so great on Smoky Slate! And I love the sparkle!
Wow!! I love the white craft ink stamped on the Smokey Slate, looks so cool! What a gorgeous card!
Love, love, love! I have never even given a thought to making a non-autumn leaf out of Gently Falling. Your card is just gorgeous!
WOW! This is stunning! It will sure brighten the day for your friend!
