Today I wanted to show that a card can be created using minimal supplies. So, the card I created used a stamp set, I chose to use the Rooted In Nature set, some ink and some cardstock. Here is what I created...
The card base is Basic Black cardstock that is cut 5 ½
x 8 ½”, scored at 4 ¼”. To create my
card front I cut 2 pieces of Whisper White cardstock. One was 4 x 5 ¼” and the second was 4 x 2 ½”. I placed my smaller piece of Whisper White
onto my larger piece and tacked it in place using temporary adhesive. I stamped the large tree from the Rooted in
Nature stamp set onto them (letting my stamp hang off the smaller of the two
pieces) using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.
Once my image was stamped, I separated the two pieces
of Whisper White cardstock and started my coloring process. I used Stamping Sponges (I cut mine into 6 –
8 wedges) to get my colors onto my image.
First, I started with Daffodil Delight and began adding color to the
right side of my piece. Then I moved to Cajun
Craze and added it to the center (I did overlap the Daffodil Delight to get
another color) and then I finished with Cherry Cobbler (I again overlapped the
colors to get yet another tone). Once I
was happy with my image, I mounted everything onto my card base.
I adhered the stamped and colored image onto a piece
of Crushed Curry cardstock that measured 2 5/8 x 4 1/8”. I then adhered this to the larger Whisper
White layer matching up the stamped image of the tree. Then I adhered the entire piece onto my card
base.
For the inside of the card I just stamped a leaf image
from the same stamp set, using Cajun Craze ink onto a piece of Whisper White
cardstock that measured 4 x 5 ¼”.
So, there you have it, a card made using a stamp,
paper and ink, I hope you enjoy it. As
