Nature gives to every Time Card

Hey Quietfire Fans! I'm thrilled to be back on the blog today sharing with you my Nature gives to every Time card which features a variety of Quietfire Stamps and A Way With Words Dies. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite Fall beverage and learn how to recreate my card at home.

To start, cut a piece of watercolour cardstock that measures 4" x 5 1/4". Grab a stamp block that is about the same size as the piece of cardstock. Rub Walnut Stain, Fossilized Amber and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide Ink onto the block. Spritz the block with water. Stamp the side of the stamp block that is inked onto the piece of watercolour cardstock. Dry the piece of cardstock with a heat tool.

Apply Potting Soil Archival Ink to the Crackle Background stamp and stamp randomly on the piece of cardstock. Reapply ink to the stamp as needed.

Apply Emboss It Ink to the Grid Background and stamp onto the piece of cardstock. Sprinkle Clear Matte Embossing Powder overtop of the grid background. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.

Cut the cardstock piece to 3 5/8" x 4 3/8". Distress the edges of the cardstock piece. Ink the edges of the cardstock piece using Walnut Stain Distress Oxide Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Die cut a 2 3/4" Stitched Circle out of white cardstock. Grab a smaller stamp block and rub Walnut Stain, Fossilized Amber and Spiced Marmalade onto the block. Spritz the block with water. Stamp the side of the stamp block that is inked onto the circle. Dry the circle with a heat tool.

Apply Potting Soil Archival Ink to the Nature gives to every Time stamp and stamp in the middle of the circle. Distress the edges if the circle. Ink the edges of the circle using Ground Espresso Distress Oxide Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Die cut two wreaths from white cardstock. Using a blending tool with foam, blend Forest Moss Distress Ink over the entire surface of both wreaths.

Apply Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Ink to the wheat stamp and stamp onto a piece of white cardstock. Reapply the Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Ink to the wheat stamp and stamp onto the same piece of white cardstock. Fussy cut the two wheat images out. Ink the edges of the wheat pieces using Ground Espresso Distress Oxide Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Foam square the circle to the middle of the cardstock piece. Adhere one wreath around the stitched circle. Adhere the other wreath on top of the first wreath, make sure the second wreath is slightly off set to create the leaves.

Adhere the wheat bunches at the bottom of the circle.

To finish the card, cut a cardbase that measures 3 7/8" x 9 1/2", score at 4 1/2". Adhere the cardfront to the cardbase.

Here are a few close up's of my Nature gives to every Time Card.
