Great Fall or Masculine Card

Here is another card from my Happy Fall Y'all class.  My image is stamped with Versamark using a stamp from Lovely as a Tree on Whisper White card stock cut 5 1/4 by 4. The card base is Early Espresso card stock cut 8 1/2 by 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4.  I carefully put Early Espresso embossing powder ( using the tip of my bone folder to dip out the powder) on the trunk and mixed Wild Wasabi and Tangerine Tango embossing powder for the leaves.  I would have liked a little red but am happy with the result. I used a greeting from Blooming With Kindness stamped in Early Espresso on Whisper White card stock and backed with a piece of  Early Espresso card stock.  Add the color ribbon of your choice and you have a great masculine card for any occasion.

TRIPLE TIME STAMPING

This card was one of the cards in my Happy Fall Ya'll card class.  We made 4 Fall themed cards.  I love the triple time stamping. For this techniques cut three pieces of Whisper White card stock 2 x 3 3/4, 3 x 4 1/4 and 4 x 5 1/4.  Put just a smidgen ( southern term) of tape on the back of each piece to hold it in place and center each piece on the next larger size.  Your stack should have 2 x 3 3/4 centered on the 3 x 4 1/4 with the 4 x 5 1/4 on the bottom.  I used the French Foliage stamp set and Gumball Green, Cajun Craze and More Mustard Ink pads.  Stamp randomly using stamps and colors of choice.  It may look busy but remember you are going to break it up with layers of card stock. Cut card stock 2 1/4 x 3 1/2, 3 1/4 x 4 1/2 with your base 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4. Carefully lift your Whisper White pieces up and mount each piece on the coordinating size of card stock, you should have about a 1/4" border on each.  My tip would be to make sure you have your pieces aligned with the image on the next size before using snail to permanently mount each square to the next largest size.  I used Gumball Green card stock as my base.  For my sentiment I used a stamp from My Friend stamp set. 

I always recommend attaching a piece of white card stock to the inside of your card so you can write a personal note or stamp a message if desired.  I like to stamp a coordinating image on the inside of my card and on my envelope.


Hope you enjoyed this card.

Gently Falling

 
Tis the season to start stamping!  For my focal point I used the Gently Falling stamp set and Soft Suede ink to creat these colorful leaves.  I stamped my images on Lucky Limeade, Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and So Saffron cardstock and cut them out free hand with my snips.  Popped them up on a small piece of Orchard Harvest DSP which is mounted on So Saffron cardstock and used Soft Suede cardstock as my card base.  Although there are numerous layers, this card was easy to make and has a simple, clean look.
