This mousie card was so much fun to make. Since it has a grape leaf on it, I realized it the Way to Use it Challenge for the week -- Leaves. How timely!
The HM image was watercolored and I added crystal effects to some of the grapes for a bit of sheen. The off-white panel was made with Spellbinders Curvy Rectangle die, the green layer under it was hand cut to create a very thin border and then it was mounted on a tobacco brown piece cut to size. The cork panel was stamped first, then torn. All this was mounted on Rusty Pickles corks dp and a punched grape leaf was added to repeat the leaf in the stamped image.
Thanks for taking the time to look - Have a Grape Day!
