I have two cards to share with you today that I have made with the Autumn Goodness bundle from the August to December mini catalog. Please comment to let me know which card you prefer. I started with Crushed Curry card stock and stamped the pumpkin and the wheat image directly on the card stock with Versamark ink to get a watermark image. Then I stamped Tuxedo Black ink on the 3″ x 3″ piece of Very Vanilla card stock and colored in the image with the Pumpkin Pie, Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive and Bronze Stampin’ Blends. I layered this piece over a 3 1/4″ x 3 1/4″ piece of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper. I cut the wheelbarrow out from Early Espresso card stock and used the brushed metallic card stock for the wheel. Don’t you love that the die embosses and cuts the wheelbarrow? I love the texture that it adds. If you prefer to stamp the wheelbarrow you have that option and there is a separate die to cut out around the stamped image. I really love the graphics on this stamp set and it is fun to color the images.
For the sentiment I stamped it with Early Espresso ink and used a die from the Tasteful Labels set of dies. For this card I added ribbon from the Forever Greenery trim package, ribbon from the Basket Weave & Metallic ribbon Pack and In Good Taste elements that I colored with a sponge dauber and Early Espresso ink. So, which card do you prefer?
I am offering a class with this beautiful bundle on October 18th in my home, and if you aren’t local to Bothell, WA, I would love to send you a To-Go kit that you can assemble at your convenience. For this kit you will need to add the stamp set (153454) for $17.00 to your order if you haven’t already purchased it. Please reach out to me at aprillindow@gmail.com to reserve your spot in class, or a kit by 10/10. Happy Stamping! Thanks for stopping by!
