I used the Stampin’ Up! Vintage Leaves and One Big Meaning stamp sets to create a fall thank you card. I received a similar card made by Lisa Martz from a swap that I participated in. You can see Lisa’s card here. Thanks for the color inspiration Lisa!
My card design was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches #259.
The colors for my card were inspired by Just Us Girls #366.
And the fall theme for my card was inspired by The Card Concept #60. I would say that my card falls into the clean and layered category.
I started by stamping the sentiment from the One Big Meaning stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Whisper White cards stock. I sprinkled the image with Copper Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it.
I adhered a panel from the Halloween Night Specialty DSP pack to the Whisper White panel with SNAIL and then I adhered a thin strip form the Copper Foil Sheets over the DSP panel with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Basic Black card stock with SNAIL and then to a Basic Black card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I cut a leaf from Pumpkin Pie Glimmer Paper with the Leaflets Framelits Die and adhered it with Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the card front. I stamped the leaf image from the Vintage Leaves photopolymer stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Copper Foil Sheets, sprinkled it with Copper Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it. I let the image cool completely and then cut it out with the matching Leaflets Framelits Die and adhered it to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I pulled a strand of Basic Black Solid Baker’s Twine through a Classy Designer Button, tied a bow and adhered it with a Glue Dot to finish the card front.
I stamped the image from the Vintage Leaves stamp set in Pumpkin Pie ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock inside the card.

So chic, with the copper embossed sentiment and the very special copper leaf 🙂 Like that the button & twine bring the DSP out and adds to the copper layer. And you got 3 challenges in one, I bet you did a happy dance when you finished, lol!
