I was intending to make a Thanksgiving card to send a pen-friend. It will have to be just the colours that are appropriate! Image stamped on Bristol Board and coloured with Polychromos pencils. I sponged some colour into the background, and added Crackle Accents over the border.
BoBunny paper has the edges wiped with gold ink and embossed with gold EP. I added the leaf trim and some punched flowers using the offcut of the DP. LOTV sentiment is also stamped on an offcut.

Such a sweet focal scene, and your "frame" is just beautiful. You use so many different techniques and products, Sabrina, to achieve these textural, modern-vintage cards. I admire that you can do that with such ease. Leaf Ribbon! I have never hear of that… I must look into it.

Love this happy scene - it can still be a thanksgiving card - the birds are thankful they aren't turkeys, hehe! Really terrific background and I love the border around the focal image. The Crackle Accents was a cool idea, And the little flowers are so cute with the leaf ribbon!

Love the 'golden autumnal ' look of your colors - the gold around the edge adds to the splendid seasonal look, and I can almost hear the bear singing from here!!

Oh, I adore birdhouses....real or stamped. This is so cute and fun. Your leaf ribbon was just perfect for this card.
