I did distressed paper layers, inking the edges with the TH walnut stain, & used burlap trim & corrugated paper in the layers

I primed the chipboard with clear gesso, then applied clear crackle onto some of the pieces. Once the crackle dried I played with the silks using the olive vine, autumn leaf & iridescent gold for the different tones of color.. I dabbed the chicken wire, with the walnut stain, glued it down & glued on some Prills...
