An Autumnal Thank You

I made this card with some of the new goodies that I got at the Hobbycraft show at the SECC last month; I had such a spend up, I'd saved up all year and it was great to have a big splurge, and I'm loving having new toys to play with.
The stamps used here aren't new, and neither is the embossing folder, but the dies, waxes, paint and embossing powders are.

To make the topper, I heat embossed the Woodware stamp with bronze embossing powder, and went round the image with two shades of grey coloured pencil to make it pop.  I then used to Stampendous Embossing Enamels round the edges of the topper, Shabby White and Aged Bronze, for a distressed look.  To colour the berries, I painted on Imagination Crafts Starlights Paint in Red, then once it had dried, I covered each one with Glossy Accents.  This gives the berries an enameled look that hasn't been captured in the photos.
The background was created by embossing a piece of kraft card with an Embossalicious folder, then applying Imagination Crafts Alchemy Waxes in three colours to it; I used Copper, Bronze and Coral.
The sentiment was stamped with a Personal Impressions stamp and I used copper and red mirri for the matting and layering.
To embellish, I used a Tonic die set to make some leafy die cuts from kraft, which I inked with Ground Espresso Distress Ink.  The final touch was to add a few gems.
