One of the first Hero Arts stamp sets I bought was Real Leaves Poetic Prints because the leaves are so realistic (especially the Maple Leaf) and they recently brought this stamp set back. But of course you can only stamp the image in one size, right. Well Hero Arts has the Maple Leaf in a digi kit called Foliage here and that's what I used to make this card.
I resized the leaves, cut them out and coloured them with Distress Inks. I wanted them to have a swirling/floating to the ground feeling so I used the Magical Background stamp on the card base.
Wishing you an inky day!
