Autumn Thanks

Happy Monday!  Today I'm sharing the card that inspired this week's Mojo Monday sketch.  I made it a few weeks back with the fabulous Teeny Trees set from Waltzingmouse.  Check the Mojo Monday blog for this week's sketch.

I started by stamping the tree branches, then filling in with the leaves in Peach Parfait and Cajun Craze, then adding a floor of leaves below the trees and lightly shadowing with a Copic marker for some depth.  The wavy border punch from EK Success adds a little whimsy and i added some piercing and a small paper clip at the bottom of the Cajun Craze piece.  For the sentiment, I inked up just part of the Give Thanks sentiment and punched out with oval punches.  The Peach Parfait background is embossed with a QuicKutz leaf embossing folder and I lightly rubbed with some off white craft ink to make them stand out a bit. The ribbon is peach parfait poly twill and I tied a little vintage tag with one of the leaves stamped on it and embellished the trees and tag with some chocolate flatback pearls from Pizzazz Aplenty.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a fabulous day!

This is so beautiful! I love the colors, of course, and the layout. Most of all, though, I love the Teeny Trees. I cannot seem to put that set down. I used it twice over the weekend. It's just a perfect little set!
