Harvest Blessings Birthday Card Plus New Stamps & a Discount Bundle!

I used the Harvest Blessings and Wetlands stamp sets for my card today.  My card design was inspired by The Paper Players #160.

Harvest Blessings

I started by embossing a panel of Cajun Craze Core’dinations card stock with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder and sanding the raised areas.  Next, I adhered a strip of Night of Navy Core’dinations card stock that I’d sanded along the edges to the embossed panel with SNAIL.  I stamped the sentiment from the Wetlands stamp set in Night of Navy ink on a strip of Soft Sky card stock, embossed it with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder and adhered it over the Night of Night of Navy strip with SNAIL.  I also adhered a strip of Etcetera DSP with SNAIL.

Then I hand trimmed the edges of the angled paper with my Paper Snips so that they lined up with the edges of the Cajun Craze panel.  I adhered the Cajun Craze panel to a Soft Sky panel with SNAIL, then to a Night of Navy card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Harvest Blessings 1

I stamped the tractor image from the Harvest Blessings stamp set in Cajun Craze ink on a Soft Sky panel, cut it out with the Deco Labels Collection Framelits Dies and sponged the edges with Night of Navy ink.  I adhered the stamped panel with SNAIL to a Night of Navy Core’dinations card stock panel that I’d cut with the Deco Labels Collection Framelits Dies, embossed with the Houndstooth Embossing Folder and sanded.  Then I adhered the layered panels to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Wetlands

I finished the card front by using the Chevron Border Punch to punch out a chevron from Night of Navy, Cajun Craze and Soft Sky Core’dinations card stock.  I sanded the chevrons and adhered them with SNAIL.

I stamped the basket image in Night of Navy ink on a Soft Sky panel inside the card.
