Wonderfall

Wonderfall

I really like how this turned out.  I love that fall weather is finally here and this card  reminds me of a walk outside. I frayed the burlap ribbon to give it a wispier feel.

I used a Variegated stamping technique to get the multicolored look on the leaf. The leaf stamp was inked up in Crushed Curry, and then Cajun Craze and Cherry Cobbler were added with sponge daubers before stamping the image on Very Vanilla card stock. The rhinestones were colored with Sharpie markers.

Thanks for stopping by!

My Friend in Calypso Coral

My Friend

I really like this Calypso Coral. It is one of the new In Colors. It’s so bright and cheery, the perfect focal color to go with this otherwise neutral card.  I love the summery feel that it gives. To get the variegated look, I covered the stamp with River Rock ink and then used a sponge dauber to dab on a little Calypso Coral and Soft Suede. Then I stamped the image on the card stock. I had already stamped the  retired French Script stamp in River Rock ink, for a nice background.

I hope you get to stamp today!
