I
started with Thick Whisper White cardstock
for the cardbase (this new cardstock if fabulous and perfect for cardbases
where our traditional whisper white cardstock is a little thin) and stamped the
greeting from the Suite Seasons
stamp set in Early Espresso ink and then I took a sponge dauber and Rich
Razzleberry ink and sponged over the greeting in circular patterns to provide a
background for the greeting. Next we
took the Gold Wink of Stella Pen and
tapped it over the cardstock for a little gold splatter that is beautiful in
real life. Along the right side we added
strips of paper (Early Espresso (from the Neutrals
Designer Series Paper Stack), Rich Razzle Berry (from the Petals and Paisleys Speciality Designer
Series Paper), and Gold Glimmer Paper.
One
of my favorite stamps from the annual catalog is the Vintage Leaves set and I stamped the leaf in Early Espresso ink on
Old Olive cardstock, cut it out with the Leaflets
Framelits and the Big Shot. Next I crumpled the cardstock to add texture
and flattened it out and then sponged it with Rich Razzleberry ink so the leaf
has lots of dimension. To attach the
leaf I added some Mono Liquid Glue
along the center of the leaf and attached it so the edges of the leaf could
stand up off the cardstock for dimension.
The final touch was to tie a bow using some Linen Thread and attached it to the base of the leaf.
This
card is doesn’t use a lot of supplies so you could make a lot of them and not
spend a lot and lets the embellishments really shine (it’s also nice and
mailable which is perfect for the post office!)
