Fresh Fall Thanks - Stampin' Up!® Gathering Moments

     I'm always on the lookout for fun color combos and I came across one that I thought would be a great fall combo so I paired it up with the Gathering Moments bundle for a project at my last class.

  I like to show my stampers different techniques as well as different looks for stamp sets and the Gathering Moments stamp set works well for creating a background as well as a main focus.  

  This card starts with a Pool Party base.  We created the fun background by blending Pool Party, Timid Tiger, Cajun Craze and Blackberry Bliss inks onto a panel of Basic White.  The smaller images from the stamp set are arranged on one block and then stamped on the ink blended panel in a random pattern with Versamark and then embossed with white embossing powder..

  The stamped panel (3" x 4 1/2") is cut in half at 1 1/2" and then each strip has a 1 1/2" square cut; one at the top and the other from the bottom.  The cut pieces are adhered to a Blackberry Bliss panel and then it's adhered to the card front.  

  The Traditional Labels dies is used for the sentiment and a Cajun Craze stamped leaf is stamped and die cut to embellish the label.  A linen thread bow and Cajun Craze and Gold dots finish off the details.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
