There are so many little details on this card!!! Once I started, I just couldn't stop.
First, I scribbled a blender pen over the stamped images on the background, just to smear the ink a bit and add a hint of color.
Second, I outlined the large leaves in a Dark Mint Macaron Stampin' Blend after coloring each leaf. It adds so much to them!
Third, I used a nail sanding block (from the Dollar Tree) to rough up the top and bottom of the Early Espresso panel.
Fourth, I ran the background and the sentiment strip through my die-cutting machine with the Tasteful Textile folder after stamping the pieces. The texture adds to the cozy feel of the card.
Fifth, I pulled the Braided Linen Trim apart and pulled out 3 strands. I tied those 3 strands in a knot around the folded-in-half trim.

That rustic twine/ribbon is perfect for the fall textures and colors on your card.
