Grateful Pilgrim Card

Created this card using scraps except for base of card.

Used Thanksgiving Cricut cartridge for Pilgrim Silhouette image. Chose the sentiment to compliment the swirls on the Pilgrim Silhouette image. Used a paper crimper on brown cardstock layer.   Used a pen for faux stitching on Kraft cardstock layer under the crimped paper layer. Added twine of color that complements the maroon color of the leaves on scrapbook paper. Added some gems to sentiment tag.
