Autumn leaves for the Diva

This weeks challenge from the Diva is to use autumn leaves as your string. Since the leaves are still green in Holland, thanks to a long, long summer, I drew the leaves out of free hand...
What do you think of them?
I've drawn on toned tan paper from Strathmore and used PITT Artst pen sanguine,  Conté de Paris pencil (white), a dark red fine marker, my UniPins and some color pencil.
