Red Leaf Version 2 and A Red Leaf Challenge

Here's another version of the Red Leaf with a different textured background.  

What a difference the texture makes, huh?

Red Leaf Challenge (A very Internet-y thing to do) :

I'm offering the "blank" red leaf to my readers.  Download it here.

Do what you like with it.  Add textures, add text, add brushes, make a collage ...

Just do me the courtesy of sharing what you did :

Leave a comment that leads back to your version.

Enjoy!

Red Leaf

Found this leaf a few weeks ago.  A tree was turning in August already, so I took the leaves home and pressed them overnight.  Then I ook a photo with a 'blank" background and used it as a canvas for textures. 

Yum!

This one has several textures to it, but the main one you see is one of 2 Lil Owls' Artist Grunge Textures. 

I actually did up a version of this with words, but I like the "silent" version above better.  Gives some space to breathe ...

Here's the oh-so-simple image I started with. 

Happy Fall!
