I love Autumn with the cooler temperatures, the changing colors and the smell of wood smoke in the air!
I used both the "Rock and Roll" and "Thumping" techniques on the leaves as well as "masking". It sounds like a lot, but it came together very quickly.
It looks like this will fit 5 challenges. I'm slightly dizzy from the thrill of that!

I'm really grateful that the wood smoke I've been smelling is from a fire pit in the neighbors yard and not a forest fire! My prayers go out to those in the west who are having to deal with those horrible fires and those recovering from fires earlier in the year.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I'm grateful to you for taking the time.
Enjoy!
