I went VERY clean and simple for this card, but included lots of layers of white. The back 2 layers are stitched. The top layer is paper-pierced to add a little pizazz. I included an elegant sentiment and 3 single leaves. To achieve this look:
- Ink up stamp with colored ink
- Sponge on brown ink with a sponge dipped in ink
- Huff on stamp (to remoisten the ink)
- Stamp down
- Add "vein" stamp in same color of leaf (for a more muted look) or brown ink (for a more bold look)
- Mold leaf edges to add dimension and adhere with dimensional boosters
Here is a peek inside. I kept it very clean and simple again, adding a single, die-cut leaf.

ReplyDeleteHi Jody! I love these leaves and die-namics! I am an autumn junky, so I have learned to be somewhat circumspect about my purchases -- I'd buy every leaf stamp out there if I could!
