Nature Gives to Every Time and Season

 

Hello Crafty Friends!

How are you enjoying your autumn?  For many people, this is their favorite time of year...and I understand why!  Over the weekend I spent time walking on trails (and crafting, of course).  Oh- I so love this time of year!  The trees are colorfully gorgeous, the temperatures are just right, and crafting is inspired by fall beauty.  

Do you have a "go to" autumn stamp set?  The Autumn Collection stamp set is my favorite.  

The card I am sharing today was used using two of the stamps from the set:
The card front features a background created using the wheat stamp.  The image was stamped using brown water reactive ink and then stamped again for a lighter image.  The image was re-inked and the process repeated.

The background was then cut to size, edges aged using brown water reactive ink, matted and mounted onto a card base.  Next, the "Nature gives to every" stamp had dark brown ink applied and was stamped onto ivory paper.  It was die cut using a stitched square and mounted on die cut gold card stock.
The finishing touches were coordinating flowers, a wee twine bow, and a sweet gem.  

I hope you enjoyed the festive, fall card.  You can pick up the Autumn Collection stamp set and other amazing Suzanne Cannon stamps, dies, and Modern Gilding Powders at Emerald Creek.  

Thank you for stopping by!  Have a happy, crafty day.

Kathy Jo
