I love this tree from In the Park, and inked it up in nice fall colors. The background was created with three shades of Distress Ink - Scattered Straw, Rusty Hinge & Vintage Photo. I also really love these Candy Crystals that Taylor sells, and tucked some in behind my satin bow:
When I started my card I was following Sankari's suggested sketch for the hop, but I veered off quite a bit:
But it's where I got the idea to put four panels on my background - mine are cork. I love cork!
