Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration challenge is a pretty fall scene!
DELICATE FOREST
Looking at this photo, I liked how the darker green tones around the edges set off the bright colors of the foreground trees and tried to duplicate that look! Delicate Forest had the greenery arch I needed!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Basic Beige cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 piece of Season of Green & Gold was cut with the Delicate Forest Die.
- I pencil marked the open area of the die cut onto the front of the Basic Beige, then stamped my trees. The center one was inked with Crushed Curry and sponged with Pumpkin Pie and Real Red. The right tree was inked with Real Red and sponged with Pumpkin Pie, the left one was inked with Pumpkin Pie and sponged with Real Red. I like the variation of leaf colors! The trunks I colored with an Early Espresso Marker. The die cut was added over the stamped images on the front.
- A 1 x 4 piece of Pecan Pie was torn across the top and then stamped with the ground image from Delicate Forest Stamps with Pecan Pie Ink. It was adhered flush with the bottom of the card.
- The greeting was stamped with Early Espresso Ink on Basic Beige cardstock and cut with the long label from Delicate Forest Dies. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Some Linen Thread was tied in a bow and added to the trunk of the middle tree with a Mini Glue Dot.
I think this stamp set worked great for the effect I wanted! And the mottled print of the DSP worked, too! OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
