STAMPtember: Miss You

For this card, I had so much fun playing with the new Autumn Leaves Dies. I started by die-cutting them from Distress Watercolor Cardstock, then brought them to life with rich, seasonal color using Distress Watercolor Pencils.

For the background, I ink blended a panel of Distress White Heavystock with some of the gorgeous new Pawsitively Saturated Ink colors: Plum, Fairy, and Ballerina, creating a soft ombré blend. Once the panel was ready, I covered it with the watercolored leaves, arranging them into a playful, layered pattern.

The sentiment is the Miss You die, which I gave a two-tone look. The shadow layer was cut from cardstock ink blended in Plum, while the top layer sparkles in Lawn Fawn Champagne Metallic Cardstock. To give it extra dimension, I popped it up with foam squares.

I mounted the finished panel on a piece of Ground Coffee cardstock for contrast. Then, to add a touch of texture and shine, I brushed Distress Collage Medium over some parts of the leaves and sprinkled on Distress Rock Candy. Finally, a few sparkling Honey Bee Stamps gems finished the card perfectly.

A mix of cozy autumn hues, shimmer, and texture makes this card feel extra special, perfect for sending a heartfelt hello.

I hope this inspires you, and maybe even “jennables” you to need some new goodies!

Hope you have a fabulous time during all of the STAMPtember celebrations!!
