Knocked-out vertical word over a bed of autumn leaves

The background is a full-bleed overhead photo of dried maple leaves in rust, amber, tan and deep red. A cream paper-textured panel with faint handwritten script overlays it. The word is cut out of the panel so the warm leaf photo shows through the letterforms, creating a strong graphic contrast. The finish is matte, earthy and seasonal.

Layout: A tall off-white panel covers most of the frame, with thin leaf-photo margins showing around it. One huge rotated word runs top to bottom and fills the panel's width, cut out so the leaves show through the letters.
Typography: Ultra-bold condensed slab/grotesque caps rotated 90°, used as a stencil knockout with no other type.

Design an original Thanksgiving Instagram story for my brand, following the art direction below. It describes a reference design in full, so you don't need to see the reference.

My brand: [my brand], [what my business sells].
Language for any text on the design: English.
Size: 1080 × 1920 px (story / reel).

Art direction to follow:
- The idea: Knocked-out vertical word over a bed of autumn leaves.
- Look and feel: The background is a full-bleed overhead photo of dried maple leaves in rust, amber, tan and deep red. A cream paper-textured panel with faint handwritten script overlays it. The word is cut out of the panel so the warm leaf photo shows through the letterforms, creating a strong graphic contrast. The finish is matte, earthy and seasonal.
- Layout: A tall off-white panel covers most of the frame, with thin leaf-photo margins showing around it. One huge rotated word runs top to bottom and fills the panel's width, cut out so the leaves show through the letters.
- Typography: Ultra-bold condensed slab/grotesque caps rotated 90°, used as a stencil knockout with no other type.
- Colours: #d98d50, #f4efea, #dfab7e, #913a23, #be784c, #bf552e (background #d98d50, text #913a23, accent #bf552e).
- Mood and details: warm, cozy, grateful, autumn maple leaves, knockout lettering, paper texture panel.
- Reference image, only if you can open it: https://media.uidiscovery.com/captures/creatives/104427285104843108-e711adbe69b6.jpg (if you can't, carry on from these notes; don't ask me for it).

Rules:
- Build the same kind of idea around [my brand]: make my product or service the hero, the way the reference does. Don't copy its artwork, people, products, logo or text.
- Leave a clean space for my logo. Never invent a logo, prices, phone numbers or claims.
- One strong idea, few words, and text large enough to read on a phone.

Before you design, ask me for my brand name and what my business sells. Then create the image.
