CQC151 Full of Blessings


Hi Stampers!

I decided to create a card this evening and with fall on the horizon here on the East Coast, I chose to use the CQC151 ColourQ colors- they seemed so "fall-like" to me.

This is another quick, easy CAS card:

Use Basic Black Classic Ink to stamp the focal image onto Whisper White cardstock.  Watercolor the image with the Aqua Painter (I used the ink from the Tempting Turquoise and Pumpkin Pie pads) and colored the bird and a few shadows with the Gray Watercolor Pencil.

Center the Apothecary Accents Framelit™ over the image and cut using the Big Shot™.  Cut another piece using Basic Black cardstock and layer behind the watercolored image (I cut the label die piece in half). 

Punch a hole in the corners, attach the 5/8” Black Stain Ribbon and the Pumpkin Pie Corduroy Button Brad (both are retired). 

Layer over Basic Gray Designer Series Paper (retired Hostess Level I pack) and a Whisper White layer cut with the Adorning Accents Edgelit™ and embossed with the Adorning Accents Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder ( stamp the sentiment before adhering to the layers).   Layer a piece of Pumpkin Pie DSP under the Adorning Accents layer and mount onto Basic Black Cardstock.

Add the 5/8” Basic Black Satin Ribbon bow to finish off the card.

Stamp Sets:  Full of Blessings

Ink: Basic Black, Pumpkin Pie, Tempting Turquoise, SU! Gray Watercolor Pencil
