Leaf Collection – Good Things

Saturday and we have been out and about!  Sneaking in this card before dinner.  Happy weekend!

Playing with the Color Throwdown (#792) palette and inspiration photo along with this week’s Freshly Made (#635) Sketch.

Here is the result:

LEAF COLLECTION – SPOTLIGHT ON NATURE – INKED & TILED – DELICATE FOREST – CTD792 – FMS635

Steps:

  • Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Boho Blue cardstock.
  • Side Panel: (5½” x 4¼”) Basic Beige cardstock.
    • The Leaf Collection Background stamp was inked with Versamark ink and heat-set with Clear Embossing Powder.
    • Using the Stampin’ Brayer, the panel was inked with Boho Blue ink and wiped clean.
    • The Leaf image from the Spotlight on Nature stamp set was stamped with Versamark ink over the panel two times and heat-set with Gold Embossing Powder.
    • The panel was then hand-torn to approximately (3” x 5”).
  • Side Strip: (1¼” x 6”) retired Kraft paper from my stash.
    • The Line image from the now retired Inked & Tiled stamp set was stamped with Versamark ink and heat-set with White Embossing Powder.
    • The Strip was hand-torn to approximately (1” x 5”).
  • Sentiment Strip: (3⅜” x ⅜”) Basic Beige cardstock scrap.
    • The sentiment, You make good things better, from the Delicate Forest stamp set was stamped with Versamark ink and heat-set with Gold Embossing Powder.

All elements were adhered to the card base to resemble the sketch. 

I liked the organic feel of the colors which were suggestive of nature, hence the choice of leaf and wood elements.  Hand tearing complimented the outdoorsy effect.

Thanks for spending some of your time with me today.  Cheers,  Jolanda!
