Yep, it’s sweater weather in north central Illinois! That’s what I was thinking about when I created this card for the Stamp Review Crew blog hop earlier this week. Of course, this isn’t a sweater, it’s a leaf, but it’s still got an autumn feel:
Unless I’m using the Stamparatus, my usual approach to these big stamps is to apply ink to the stamp, instead of vice versa, and lay the cardstock on the face-up rubber. Over that, I place a piece of scratch paper and rub it to transfer the ink. That’s the way I did it on this leaf from the Leaf Label and Amber Gem Combo Pack. I created three of these leaves at the same time, just in case my plans changed direction.
I chose colors that would coordinate with the beautiful Amber Gems in the pack, but I changed my mind and substituted some vanilla baker’s twine that I frayed. Inside this note card is a birthday greeting from Charming Sentiments.
