We are feeling a lot like fall here in MT as this Labor Day weekend begins! It's a cloudy, cool day with some rain showers out there. The weather just said snow in the higher elevations. We won't see that here where we live tho. I'm not ready for snow!
Today's card looks like fall though. I love the fall colors...
This card has several steps and some of my customers got to make this card a class recently. First you will use the embossing buddy on the white cs layer and then stamp leaves from Lighthearted Leaves stamp set in versamark ink and sprinkle with white embossing powder and heat emboss them. Then using sponges you will sponge the color over them. I used old olive, hello honey, pumpkin pie, and Cajun craze. After letting that dry a bit, we used the embossing buddy again over the white layer.
The greeting was done by the thumping technique. Ink the greeting in pumpkin pie and thump Cajun craze over the top with the brush tip end of a stampin write marker. Stamp and punch it out. I sponged the edges with some pumpkin pie ink. Place on the card using dimensionals.
Now to get that splattered glitter look...
Using a lid to a button container or cottage cheese container you will take a little bit of the green tombow glue. Next you will use an aqua painter from Stampin' Up! to add a little water to the glue to make it more of a liquid. Mix it around and then by hitting the aqua painter against your finger you will splatter that glue liquid on the cardstock. When you get your desired look, sprinkle with the gold glitter. Set aside for drying time. This is soooooo pretty in real life! Well worth the glitter mess you make! LOL!
After dry, I added a little gold ribbon and then put it to a pumpkin pie base card.
Enjoy your Labor Day weekend!
