I used metallic copper cardstock for the background and it made this card rather difficult to photograph--too light/bright or too dark & this is the happy in between picture! The bountiful Basket image from DRS Designs was colored with Bic Markers. I used raffia tied like a shoelace around some orange brads behind the image as seen on the sketch.Stamps: DRS Designs- Bountiful Basket (L791), Thanksgiving Greetings Squares (K1052)
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black, Colorbox Fluid Chalk Ink Tangerine
Paper: Smooth white cardstock by Office Depot, Colored Cardstock by The Paper Company & American Crafts
Accessories: Bic Markers, Nesties, Cuttlebug and Cuttlebug Divine Swirls Embossing Folder, Brads by Making Memories, SU! Word Window Punch, EK Success Decorative Corner Punch, Wraphia Ribbon from Target.
Finished Card Size: 4.25" x 5.5"
Well, holy moley, it's Friday already! Not that I'm complaining at all, but with the US holiday this past Monday this week flew right by! I'm excited that this is my weekend off of work and I have a stamping date with some friends on Saturday. Whoo Hoo! I love days like that!
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
