The final project from my recent Card Making Class for this month was this autumnal Birthday Card.
It is a version of this project I taught at a Card & Cuppa Class in September.
This time, I’ve used Pecan Pie for my stamping, plus Crushed Curry and Very Vanilla as accent colours.
Using the Etched Autumn Stamp Set from the Online Exclusives range, the image is stamped onto two pieces of cardstock.
The first piece is then coloured with Watercolor Pencils and a Blender Pen.
I have found the key to achieving a more natural look with the colouring is to just scribble randomly in patches across the leaves. Don’t overthink where the colours will be, just go for it. Your Blender Pen then performs the magic and pulls the colours together for you.
Next, a few leaves are coloured on the second piece and fussy cutting is needed to cut them out.
A sentiment from the Choose Happy Stamp Set is stamped onto a punched circle and layered onto another punched circle.
The cut out leaves are then stuck to the back of the sentiment. Finally, the whole piece is raised up on Dimensionals.
