Good morning fellow stampers. I had so much fun creating my card today. It's for a very special couple who is celebrating their anniversary next week.
My inspiration came from Christina Miller.
I chose to use Merry Merlot Card Stock for my base which is 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4".
In addition to scissors, liquid glue and equipment that will emboss and cut dies, here is what you'll need:
Fire pit:
Gray Granite Card Stock: 2 3/4" x 2"
Layering Oval to cut out the place for "flames"
Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder
Sponges, Gray Granite and Merry Merlot inks
Chairs: (I love Adirondack chairs, don't you? I hope Inkspirational: Challenge 209 - Chair Photo will like mine!)
Crumb Cake Card Stock: 4 1/4" x 3"
Seasonal Layers Dies
Subtle 3D Embossing Folder
Mini Dimensionals
Flames:
Painted Harvest Stamp Set
Inks: Crushed Curry, Terracotta Tile
Scrap Whisper White Card Stock
Background Art Panel:
Whisper White Card Stock 5 1/4" x 4"
Winter Woods Stamp Set for the trees
Product for Masking the sky and then the ground
Sponges
Inks: Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Merry Merlot, Old Olive, Early Espresso
Inside:
Whisper White Card Stock Mat: 5 1/4" x 4"
Timeless Tropical Stamp Set for the palms
Pear Pizzazz Ink (stamp off twice)
Merry Merlot Ink for the sentiment (mine is from the retired Wonderful Romance Stamp Set)
