Festive Farmhouse DSP  5 3/8 x 4 1/8 & 4 3/x4 x 3/4

Notes:  The sentiment is from the Wood Words stamps set.  The leafy sprigs are from the Rooted In Nature Bundle.  I stamped two sets of leaves using Mossy Meadow ink and cardstock and Granite Gray ink on vellum.  Tried out the new Braided Linen Trim -- think I have found a new favorite trim.

World Card Making Day -- Be creative!!!


Happy World Card Making Day!!  To celebrate the day I am featuring my favorite stamps set, Artistically Asian.  The sentiment in this set is so appropriate for what is happening today.  
It is time that we all relax and be creatively kind.



Measurements:
Whisper White Thick Card Base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
Night of Navy Layers 5 1/4 x 4, 2 1/4 x 3 1/2
Silver Foil Layer  2 1/4 x 3 1/2
Whisper White Layer  2 1/4 x 3 1/2

Ink
Night of Navy and Wink of Stella

Tip:  The image is stamped using a few drops of Night of Navy Refill Ink mixed with a  generous squeeze of Wink of Stella.   With a very wet stamp I put down the image that looked almost as if it were a water colored.  Then used the Stampin Spritzer to add more color to the background.

DOStamper STARs Thursday Challenge #300 - Colorful Seasons Color Challenge



Welcome to this week's DOStamper Stars Thursday Challenge #300.  It is color challenge  featuring Highland Heather (I used Gorgeous Grape), Pumpkin Pie and Lemon Lime Twist.  The card I made is a variation of one I create last fall, it is one of my favorites.
Measurements:
Lemon Lime Twist Card Base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
Soft Suede Layer  5 x 3 1/2
Shimmery White  4  7/8 x  3  3/8

Ink
Gorgeous Grape, Lemon Lime Twist, Pumpkin Pie 
and Soft Suede

TIP:  Used my size "B" acrylic block to stamp rectangles.  Inked up the block, stamped off a bit of color, couple of sprays of water with my Stampin' Spritzer, and used aqua painter to spread out any ink puddles.  Once the ink was dry I stamped the leaves using Soft Suede ink.
