I do lovDDWS8e these leaves from Unity’s August kit of the month – Cozy Moments.  I post a new sketch every 3rd Sunday of the month and I based this card on my the current Wanna Sketch.  I overlapped the 2 big leaves and then colored them in with Copics.  The ink for the leaves is not Copic safe, I was aware before coloring.  I like the way it lightens and bleeds into the markers.  It is a lovely softening effect.

I masked of the big leaves and then picked a few of the leaves from the background stamp to add around it.  Last, I popped up the circle ‘give thanks’ sentiment.  All the perfect stamps included in one stamp set.  LOVE that.

The pearls and the wood veneer bird were the final additions to finish it all off.
