Tic Tac Toe challenge #11

Another quick post before I go to work to show the card for this week's Tic Tac Toe challenge. 

I went for the bottom row this time leaf, free (used background stamp and gems), splatter.

Back from work so I can now explain how this card came about.  I used the SU En Francais background stamp and inked with a few autumnal coloured inks to give it a multi tone.  I also stamped one of the small leaves from the SU Vintage Leaves set.  From the same stamp set I stamped out several of the leaves onto patterned paper and used the coordinating dies to cut them out.  The patterned paper came from a retired SU DSP pack which has been lurking in my stash for quite some time.  The sentiment came from one of the new stamp sets that will be available from 1st September called Painted Harvest.  My free choice(s) were to use the background stamp and a few pearl gems.  The final choice was to use brown and green inks watered down to create some splatters flicking a paint brush.
