I saw her original version of this card a long time ago and have been meaning to try it for myself.
I am really happy with the way my effort turned out although perhaps the inked panel backgrounds might have been better a wee bit darker round the edges.
Linen textured card used throughout.
Inks were a mixture of Adirondack and Distress inks.
Die cuts from different companies.
Sentiment stamped with Versafine and tiny gold pearls from my stash.
This has been another few days that have whizzed past I have travelled from home to East Yorkshire to Cumbria and then back home! Few days of peace (I hope) - Club Finals at the weekend then will be on the massive chill out before the proper sunshine holiday!

I too am inspired by the artwork of Birgit, she's such a talent.
Superb interpretation of her work Viv
I agree with you Viv Birgit's cards are amazing but you also have made a fabulous card..inking on linen card also looks so good as it looks like canvas, love your Autumn leaves

Fabulous take on Birgits card. I`m sure you know that I`m also a massive fan of her cards and do try to case them although no where near as well as she does them. Yours is perfect.
Whereabouts in East Yorkshire were you? Thats where I live.

This is just beautiful. I like this just the way it is. If your edges were darker, I think you might have separated them apart of each other more. Right now your panels seem to be more fluid, one panel moving on to the next.
So glad you joined us at Die Cut Divas.
Oh wow, I do love this, Viv! Love the peaceful and warm feel of this CAS design, and this card demonstrates that less IS more! Fantastic job!
This is stunning Viv, the design is so beautiful and the colours look wonderful.
