Whimsical Wednesday Challenge "Happy Turkey Day"

Good morning Whimsical Crafters. It is time for another Whimsical Wednesday Challenge. This week we are creating a card/project that is Thanksgiving Themed. Be sure to read the rest of the guidelines at the end of the post to qualify for the prizes.  Here is my project for this week:

This is a box from the Spring Holiday Cards Cartridge. I started with just a piece of vanilla card stock, and used a variety of Tim Holtz Distress inks to get the color I wanted. I then used a background stamp to add some interest. The flowers were made using the Tim Holtz Tattered Florals Die, I added some berries, and Diamond Dust to the center (this makes it looks like there is some sap on them). The sentiment comes from Cindy's digital shop, but this week she is giving it away as a freebie. You can get it right here. I colored it with my Stampin' Up Write Markers and then painted it with Tim Holtz crackle paint clear rock candy. Once it was dry I inked it with more distress inks. I was inspired to try this technique from one of our very own Whimsical Designers, Joni. I tied a bow around a cinnamon stick with Shabby Crinkle Ribbon from the Prairie Bird Boutique and attached it with a glue dot. Here is the rest of the awesome designers Turkey Day projects:
