Lighthearted Leaves- Thank You

Hello Again Friends!

Here is another design using the new Lighthearted Leaves set along with the Splitcoaststampers’ CC546 "Rich Cucumber Twist" Color Challenge (with dessert of Black and White :-)) , SC553 Sketch Challenge and the Mix-Ability MIX135 "Back to School- Chalkboard Anything" Challenge (although just a tiny chalkboard :-)).  

If you have not had a chance to visit the above challenge site galleries yet, again, I would encourage you to do so- fabulous inspiration in the galleries!

To create this card:

Use the Embossing Buddy® to de-static a piece of Whisper White cardstock, ink the Lighthearted Leaves image using Versamark™ Ink, stamp onto the panel, apply Stampin’ Emboss® Black Embossing Powder and use the Heat Tool to heat set the powder.

Color the image with Stampin’ Write markers- Cucumber Crush, Rich Razzleberry and Tangelo Twist and fussy cut out the image.

Use the Big Shot™ with the Tiny Triangles Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of Cucumber Crush cardstock, trim the angle for the sketch and mount onto a piece of Basic Black cardstock.

Mount the angled piece onto the Whisper White panel, trim and mount onto a piece of Basic Black cardstock, trim again and mount onto the Rich Razzleberry card base.

Use the Embossing Buddy® to de-static a scrap piece of Basic Black cardstock, ink the Me=Grateful sentiment image using the retired Versamark™ Marker (to omit all but the “thank you” from the sentiment), stamp onto the prepared piece of Basic Black cardstock, apply Stampin’ Emboss® White Embossing Powder and use the Heat Tool to heat set the powder.

For the chalkboard effect, use your fingertip or a Sponge Dauber to apply Whisper White Craft Stampin’ Ink to the sentiment.

Mount the embossed leaf image along with the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals® to finish off the card.
