  • Leaves of Three

    Fun sketch at Splitcoast (SC304). I tweaked mine a bit by making my center panel square instead of oval and I also divided my background into 3 panels.

    All images are Our Daily Bread designs. For the center leaf, I inked the image with a combination of the dk brown, burnt sienna and wild honey inks. It’s cut out w/ the deckle scissors and attached to a dk brown layer. The panel behind it has the leaf stamped twice; once in the burnt sienna and once in wild honey.

    On the 3 bg panels, I stamped the small script w/ alabaster onto the choc c/s, the verse onto rust (w/ the same ink) and on the mustard, I stamped the shadow leaf w/ the wild honey and the leaf vein w/ the burnt sienna. They’re all edged w/ the redwood marker. I used the leaf vein again on the torn vellum piece w/ the alabaster ink. Everything’s attached to a 5.5 x 4.25 ivory card.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

    I love fall colors and this image was just made for them! On damp watercolor paper,  I floated in the various colors of dye reinkers using a fairly large paintbrush. After it dried, I stamped the image with permanent black ink.  I stamped the image a second time on a piece of card board. I cut both out, leaving a very narrow frame around the top and sides and glued them together. After sponging a little red ink on the edges of a piece of marigold card stock, I attached the cut out image to it.  I added a narrow black layer and a textured mustard one before attaching everything to a 5.5 x 4.25 white card. The sentiment was stamped on top of a scrap of the watercolored paper and cut out.

    This is also for the Inspiration Challenge at Splitcoast (IC255).

    (You may have seen these cards on the Splitcoast Faux Brad Tutorial which debuted 10/13/10.)  For both of my cards, I used the Autumn Swirl set 410. Isn’t it lovely? For the first card, I used a rainbow ink pad for the tree, greeting and 1/2″ faux brads. I used a Spellbinders rectangle to cut it out and a petite oval for the greeting. On the horizontal mustard layer, I stamped another of the swirl images using part of the Autumn Leaves Kpad. The sentiment was die cut using a petite oval nestie. The faux brads were made using a scrap of the vanilla which I first stamped w/ the swirl images using the Kpads. These faux brads are 1/2 inch. Finished card measures 5.5 x 4.25 (A2).

    Supplies:
    stamps: Sparkle N Sprinkle – Autumn Swril set 410
    paper: vanilla, mustard, grape
    ink: Kaleidacolor Creole Spice & Autumn Leaves
    accessories: Spellbinders petite ovals & rectangles, 1/2 inch hole punch (faux brads)

    For this second card, I used the same images and layout, but “painted” my tree with 3 different embossing powders. The swirly tree image was stamped w/ VM and I used the 3 embossing powders and a technique I call “painting w/ ep”. I used a rectangle nestie to cut it out. Two very narrow mats, 1 mustard, 1 rust (spritzed w/ bleach), back it.

    On the horizontal mustard layer, I stamped another of the swirl images using part of the Autumn Leaves Kpad. The sentiment was die cut using a petite oval nestie. The Faux Brads were made using a scrap of the vanilla which I first stamped w/ the swirl images using VM and sprinkled w/ the embossing powders. These faux brads are 1/2 inch. Finished card measures 5.5 x 4.25 (A2).

    Supplies:
    stamps: Sparkle N Sprinkle – Autumn Swril set 410
    paper: vanilla, mustard, rust (spritzed w/ bleach)
    ink: VersaMark, Kaleidacolor Autumn Leaves
    accessories: embossing powders (Indian Corn, Fall Fiesta & Golden Follies- all SNS), Spellbinders petite ovals & rectangles, 1/2 inch hole punch (faux brads), bleach
