I did a couple of alterations to the sketch: Panels 1 & 2 are one piece of CS, the part "2 side" is dry embossed for definition. Instead of a large circle for #4, I have a small sentiment oval.....the main focus being the image on #3. The bittersweet image is multiply stamped.....and then I added more shading with Copics. Diamond Glaze was added to most of the berries. The bg was given a watercolor wash.

Wonderful sense of autumn with your gorgeous bittersweet spray! This brings fond memories of walks in the fields with DH and marveling over these colorful vines which shelters the likes of game birds and small wildlife. Lovely card Sallie!

Lovely Thanksgiving creation. I like the mixed elements...the dry embossing and then the distressing the image panel...also the inked edges. So beautiful and the diamond glaze finishes it perfectly!
