I love these skeleton leaves from Sizzix. This time I backed them with some gold mirror card onto which I had dropped various autumnal shades of alcohol ink! These literally were scraps of card.. not large enough to cover the three leaves altogether, but I looked for an interesting bit of colour which would just about cover each leaf individually!. I had just enough left for the sentiment.
