I created the sky with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink and a hand cut cloud mask, and the grass was made with torn Core'dinations. I then cut the leafy canopy with my Memory Box die, which I bought a wee while back and hadn't used.........oops! I inked a piece of mustard card with assorted autumnal coloured Distress Inks, and spritzed lightly to blend a bit. After drying with a heat tool, I stuck it behind the canopy to give the leaves a variegated look. Next, I cut a twiggy tree with a matching Memory Box die and glued it into place. I decided to cut out a few coloured leaves from yellow and orange cardstock to scatter on the ground under the tree, well it is an autumn scene after all. Finally, I added the sentiment, cutting a fishtail in one end, and raising the middle with foam pads to give the banner a wavy appearance. A trio of bronze gems finish it off.
