Many Thanks

Another fall card for the Hero Arts Monthly Challenge...
The background is created with layers of glimmer mist. I then stamped the cling swirl background over the background using a brown ink.  I layered the stamped leaf over that and colored it with a frost paint. The edges were distressed with brown dye ink. Then colored around the edges of the leaves with a brown watercolor pencil to provide some shadowing. I finished it off with a few more leaves stamped, cut out, and sponged and added the thanks onto the leaves. Then the leaves were dangled using some twine.

Have a wonderful day!
