CMCC92 Lighthearted Leaves

Hi Friends!!

I am so excited to be a Guest Designer for Colour Me...! I just love their weekly color challenges as well as their fabulous Design Team – what an honor to join them this month!

I also decided to incorporate the Splitcoaststampers’ F4A287 “Odd Time of Year” Challenge (use an odd number of stamps – I used nine total) and the IN{K}SPIRE_me #218 Autumn Challenge :-)

I hope you will have a chance to check out the rest of the Design Team projects and create your own project to join in on the fun!! 

To create this card:

De-static a piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Embossing Buddy®.  Ink the leaves from the Lighthearted Leaves stamp set using Versamark™ ink onto Whisper White cardstock, apply Stampin’ Emboss® White Embossing Powder, heat with the Heat Tool to set the powder.

Stamp the Gorgeous Grunge diagonal line stamp and all of the splatter stamps using Pumpkin Pie Classic Ink.

Color the leaves with the Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Write Marker and add additional shadows with the Sahara Sand Stampin’ Write Marker. 

Gently wipe off the additional ink from the embossing.

Stamp the sentiment using Pumpkin Pie Classic Ink, trim the panel, mount onto Pumpkin Pie cardstock, trim and mount onto Whisper White cardstock, trim once more and mount onto the Pumpkin Pie card base.

De-static a piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Embossing Buddy®.  Ink the large maple leaf from the Lighthearted Leaves stamp set using Versamark™ ink onto Whisper White cardstock, apply Stampin’ Emboss® White Embossing Powder, heat with the Heat Tool to set the powder.

Use a Sponge Dauber to apply Pumpkin Pie Classic Ink over the leaf image, wipe off the excess with a damp cloth and add additional color with the Stampin’ Write Pumpkin Pie Marker.

Carefully cut out the leaf and mount to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals® to finish off the card.
