ARTISAN AWARD PROJECT #4 NATURE WALK CARD

This card was made with Nature Walk, a set we got at the Minnesota Regional. It isn't a set I would normally gravitate to, but it was good for me to try something different. And I really liked the set after I had made some projects with it, so much so that I decided to use it for one of my card entries. I wanted to add some small twigs to the focal point at the bottom, but the ones I found in the yard were too bulky. So I took a few pieces of hemp twine and rolled them in glue. After they dried and stiffened up a bit, I colored them with a marker.
