So we had a snow day here in Maryland. I L.O.V.E. a snow day! Seriously love them! Needless to say, I was very productive.
I made this card based on
THIS pin. One of the cool things about this card (to me) is that the 4 bases are a super neutral from one of those card packs you buy at the craft stores. This was the last color I had left to use in the pack, and it's been sitting on my desk top for quite a while now, I must admit. I am thrilled by the fact that I finished using the set (which makes me very happy to actually use what I have) and I love using something completely. I'm weird.)
Anyway, I have this very light neutral bases. I punched a 2" circle in a scrap piece and used my woodgrain stamp to stamp a circle of woodgrain right on the base. I stamped the woodgrain in Crumb Cake ink. I also cut out Crumb Cake leaves. You can see I tried two different leaf sprigs. Can you tell which one I liked better? I stamped a few sympathy cards for sale and made a few cards that would be good for my card ministry. I used Early Espresso ink. I also sponged a little So Saffron in on the woodgrain. Each card also got a little button with espresso twine knotted on it with a bow.
Here's the original, which I do love, but I am quite happy with mine, too!
