Colorful Seasons Meets Embossing

















If you've been following my posts you'll recognize the background on this card.  If not, check in my previous post to learn how I did this.  Also, the impression left on the embossed area of this card is done by embossing several layers of gold embossing powder and while the final layer is still hot and slightly liquid I used my stamp to impress the greeting.

Here are the ingredients and measurements of this card. Check out my video below as I talk you through what I did.

Card base: Whisper White cardstock (100730) 8 1/2" X 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
Layers: Glossy cardstock (144240) 3" X 4" and 4" X 5 1/4"-previously decorated with the baby          wipe technique (see previous video)
Inks: Versamark (102283)
Embossing Powder: Gold (109129)
Embellishments: Metallic Gold Ribbon (144146)- Approximately 16"
Stamp Bundle: Colorful Seasons (145348)
Adhesives: Dimensionals (104430), Foam Adhesive Strips (141825), Glue Dots (103683),                  Fast Fuse (129026)
Tools: Big Shot (143263), Heat Tool (129053)

Ink Refills Rock for Backgrounds





Creating a background is so easy when you use these products...
Glossy Cardstock and Ink Refills...oh, and a baby wipe.
That's it!  It's super simple and takes no time at all to create something beautiful and unique. The ingredients for my card are as follows:




Whisper White Cardstock (for card base) cut 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4"(100730)

Whisper White Cardstock (for greeting)- use scrap that's at least 2 1/2" square.

Early Espresso Cardstock (for mat) cut 2 1/4" square (119686)

Early Espresso Cardstock scrap that's large enough to cut 2 leaves and the branch shown.

You can cut your piece of Glossy White Cardstock 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"(144240) if you're only making one card or you can stamp a piece of 8 1/2" X 11" so you'll have enough for 4 cards or a larger project, if you want.

The colors of Ink Refills I used are Cherry Cobbler(119788), Pumpkin Pie(105229), Daffodil Delight(119672), Old Olive(100531) and Cajun Craze(119790).

The ink pad I used for the greeting is Early Espresso Classic Ink (126974)

I dotted the ink onto a baby wipe and then thumped this onto the glossy cardstock.  Set this aside to dry while you work on your greeting and leaf embellishments.

I fell in love with the Color Theory Suite in the catalog (pgs 146-147) so I used the Seasonal Layers Thinlits (143751) for the leaves and branch.


For the adhesives I used the Fast Fuse (129026) and Multipurpose Liquid Glue (110755).

Painted Harvest is Christmas Too



I love when a stamp set can be purposed for more than its original intent. Check out the wreath made with the same stamp we used for the sunflower in an earlier video😁Oh, and the colors I used were wild wasabi and real red.

Faux Metal

                I love this technique!  I've made buckles, buttons, tags and all sorts of things using this method.  It really adds a pop of wow to projects!
