Karen Amidon...thats me!
"Here's To The Blessings " quote was chosen for the focus. On the background I used the clear embossing technique with the beautiful Acorns & Sweetgum stamp.
I really like how this gives a tone on tone effect. To add some interest, I fussy cut leaves from the stamped image. The lighting decided to give its own spin on the paprika colored paper and turned it bright orange!!
"Here's To The Blessings " quote was chosen for the focus. On the background I used the clear embossing technique with the beautiful Acorns & Sweetgum stamp.
The "Peace" stamp was used inside. I wanted to keep it CAS. All three of these stamps are included in the "Sweetgum & Acorns Cling Set".
My second card was made with the same layout and technique. I used the "To Everything" stamp as my focus. I repeated the acorns in the embossed pattern by adding the charms.

ReplyDeleteLove all the elements of your card Karen! Great sweetgum stamp and lovely curved die cut at the bottom!
ReplyDeleteI love the tone on tone maybe because it is black on black. I also love the color combination of this card. Simple and an elegant twist on fall. Lovely.
