This is for TLC (technique lovers) challenge #108, to use only shades of brown and cream; no other colors. The main Trees Three panel is done in Cracked Glass. The tiny, nearly hidden sun charm was brass which I pressed into Close to Cocoa Craft ink and clear embossed, to turn it brown. The large oak leaves are punched using a retired SU! punch, out of a piece of glossy CS colored with Staz-On Timber Brown ink, thinned out white glue, and several colors of Pearl-Ex. I sculpted them to look like crinkled brown leaves. The bunny is colored with Prisma pencils and clear-embossed. Everything is raised up on several layers of foam tape.
Thanks for looking! Maddy

I don't even know where to begin! This is so beautiful. The detail in this card, especially the leaves. Just wonderful. I think you need to do a tutorial (for the visual learners like me) on those stunning leaves.

OM Gosh! Seventy comments! And probably seventy more to come. What a card! You sure pack alot of beauty and wonder into each of your very special creations, and the results are amazing Maddy. I must say, this really needs to be framed and put into a Museum, it is much much more than a *card*. I am truly awed by this and feel priviledged to know you through this site! Stamp on sister, you are the bomb! Hugs, Nancyruth!!!!
