Thankful Gold Leaf Card & Video

Fall is here, and the leaves are starting to fall. I was walking around my yard and picked up some of the leaves that were on the ground not sure exactly what to do with them. I didn't press them, and they were not the beautiful fall colored ones either, they were just plain dead leaves. 
I decided I wanted to color them gold and Imagines Delicata Golden Glitz was the perfect gold. But then I had to figure out how to make them so they wouldn't be brittle and fall apart like normal dead leaves, Creative Medium in Vintage worked perfectly. I then used some of the leaves to make a Fall Thankful Card.


Below is the video on how I colored the leaves and created the card....


The leaves almost have a leather feel to them once dry, and the metallic look that the Delicata ink gives is fantastic. These leaves can be used for so many different things.
