Hello Everyone!
I hope you've all had a wonderful week and that you were able to score some amazing deals on World Card Making Day. Everyone was having sales!
Today I'm sharing a Topflight Stamps Design Team project. An adorable Fall Sampler that's perfect for many occasions.
I used a rubber stamp by Magenta:
Such sweet fall images and I colored them all with Copics. I'll list the colors I used at the end of this post.
I started by stamping the image on Neenah Cassic Crest Solar White 80lb. card stock. My panel was about 5" x 5". I used Memento Rich Cocoa Ink and my MISTI. I did ink it more than once. Then I colored the various images using fall tones for my marker colors. I did not color the background of the squares or the edging around the whole stamp at this point.
I picked out my background paper next. Sometimes I color my image first and then pick out my background paper and other times I am inspired by the paper and color my images to match! I chose paper from Photoplay Mad 4 Plaid Fall.
This background paper gave me direction not only for the backgrounds on the squares but for the edges as well. The background paper had a bit of plum color in it so I went with a pale soft blue that had a fair amount of red in it. For the edges, I tried to choose a color that would look similar to the background of the paper. I ended up glazing one color over another to get the look I wanted.
My card base was 5 x 5", my patterned paper measured 4.75" x 4.75" and the stamped panel I cut so that there was 1/8" all the way around - after I cut it I went around the cut edge with a black brush marker (not a Copic). Although you can hardly see it, it does give that panel definition.
I glued all my panels together. Then I added some tiny gold leaf sequins and liberally scattered Nuvo Crystal Drops in Auburn Pearl. And that completed my card!
