Welcome to the Third Thursdays Blog Hop! Our theme for this month is Halloween/ Harvest. I chose to focus on the Harvest side of this challenge. I live in Evergreen Colorado and we are fully into Fall up here. I have shut the water off to my flower bed for the winter. The nights this week have been below freezing.
My card this time uses a couple of stamp sets. Winter Woods and the new Gather Together set. I stamped the Bare Trees with Crumb Cake Ink on a 3 1/2" x 4 3/4" piece of Whisper White Cardstock. I created a sort of frame from a 3 1/2" x 4 3/4" piece of Merry Merlot Cardstock. I used the second largest Oval die from the Layering Ovals Die Set to cut my frame in the Merry Merlot layer. I then Embossed this piece with the Subtle 3D embossing Folder. My Card Base is 5 1/2"X 8 1/2" piece of Merry Merlot Cardstock, scored at 4 1/4". The Mat is a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Come To Gather Designer Series Paper. Using the 2 largest Oval Dies I cut a 1/8" Oval frame out of the center of my DSP Mat (no one will know). I adhered this to the Merry Merlot layer with my Fine Tip Glue Pen. I cut a couple of leaves out of some Cajun Craze with the wonderful Gathered Leaves Dies ( I misted the cardstock with water and and then cut the leaves out).
I'm not sure that you can see it in the photo but the Merry Merlot layer is popped up on the Trees Layer with Dimensionals. The Inside Layer is Whisper White Cardstock, 3 3/4" x 5". I stamped the Gather Together with Merry Merlot Ink.
My inspiration for this card was provided by Su's card over on Aromas and Art.
