I kept it pretty CAS with no embellishments since it's for a man (Dad). I started by embossing Fluffles in gold and colouring with watercolour markers. I outlined the panel in gold and mounted on brown, orange, and gold cardstock. For the base of my card, I covered a white card with brown cardstock and added an orange panel that I stamped repeatedly with leaves in brown. Lastly I embossed the sentiment in gold. Here are the supplies used:
- Stamps: Fluffles (Stampendous), sentiment (The Old Island Stamp Company), leaves (Stampcraft)
- Ink: Versamark Water Mark, Ancient Page Chocolate
- Embossing powder: The Artful Stamper
- Watercolour markers: Tombow
- Gold marker: Pilot
- Cardstock: Orange (Walmart), gold (Dollarama), brown (unknown/unmarked from my stash)

ReplyDeleteGreat card love the rich colours and thanks for joining us at crafty sentiments this week
ReplyDeleteThis is sooooo cute. I love the image of the kitty jumping into the leaves. Perfect colors and leaves stamped on the orange cardstock. This card would be a great addition to my Manly Monday post. May I share a link to your card with my readers? And to think I came by to tell you thank you. Your kind comment on my blog warms my heart. I appreciate DT members leaving comments but you would laugh at some of the crazy words people "say"-more like copy and paste on my blog. I have a pure B&W card and someone said nice color combo-really? Then I have this red, black and cream/vintage card with a measuring stick on it and some hearts and a person said nice Christmas card. So thank you for your nice comment about liking to visit my blog-I love that and do LMK about the card for this Monday's post. Hugs
ReplyDeleteLove the colors and the embossing!
