In Summer...with Quitefire Design

Hello Quietfire fans!  Today I'm sharing a beautiful nature-inspired card using:

Gentle Thoughts Rubber Stamps

In Summer - #5997 

Such a wonderful quote!  So to begin I chose the paper I wanted to use and 

gathered my materials.

I wanted my card to have a natural organic and summery feel to it.  So I started by

ripping my main panel and inking the sides.  I also made a horizontal rip in from the

right side to peel back to reveal the sentiment.  I inked those edges as well.

Next I took a small piece of what would be my background paper and stamped

my sentiment on it with dark brown ink.  I love the clean crisp

image that stamping with rubber makes!

I ripped the right edge of this small panel and inked it up.  Then I adhered

it behind the patterned panel after curling back the torn edges.

Next I made an A2 size panel from white card stock measuring 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" 

and adhered my background paper.  I inked those edges as well.  Then I adhered

my patterned stamped panel on top.  Just one little tweak to the eggs in the nest,

they were white...I colored them pale blue.  And my card was finished!
