This fall inspired card was created using scraps from my stash & the card pattern out of the Make It From Your Heart how-to book on the top of page 42! I save so many scraps from my paper packs that I really really need to get them used! So to show everyone how you can maximize the product to the fullest I created this card!
2. I then cut the 4 strips of the different patterns at 4"x 1 1/4" and inked the edges ever so slightly with Desert Sand ink.
3. I then cut a zip strip at 5 1/2" from the top of one of the Pemberley sheets to adhere across the strips of patterned paper.
4. The stamp is paper pieced by stamping it on white cardstock in Honey and then also in Outdoor Denim. You then cut the "Celebrate Today" oval from the Outdoor Denim image and pop it with 3-D Foam over the Honey colored image! Waaalaa! LOL!
5. Now I had used all of my Mixed Shapes Chipboard shapes but had kept the sheet still with the outlines of the shapes!! (You can also cut up the outlines and use them to "pop" your items off your work!) So all I did was cut a square around the outline of the shape that sorta matches the image I stamped. Then I used the Stipple Brush from the Texture Tools to "stipple" Outdoor Denim ink around the chipboard. Then simply adhere it over top of your stamped image to create a recessed look and add dimension.
6. At this time, I used the small flower from the Merry & Bright stamp set to random stamp one of the Maple leaves from the Arbor Wooden Shapes set in Desert Sand ink.
7. Then I adhered the leaf under a bow tied from the Chocolate Grosgrain Ribbon and added one of the itty bitty flowers from the Bouquet Assortment to finish it off :)
