Happy Tuesday and hello FALL!
I’ve been looking forward to making something with this autumn stamp set featuring Classic Eeyore, and today I’m sharing one that was quick & easy and reminds me of the basic black lined illustrations in the Classic Winnie the Pooh books, which I LOVE. Eeyore has always been my favorite and I really love that even though he can be pretty moody and sad, clearly autumn leaves make him happy!
This card features simple black stamping with Versafine Clair Nocturne onto patterned paper from the 6×6 Classic Pooh paper pad– which has fun patterns and lovely neutrals like the ones you see featured on my card today!
I stamped leaves on the rust patterned paper and an extra on a scrap to add as an embellishment, tying it with some teal twine for a little burst of color. The only other inking on this card is a bit of edging in Rusty Hinge Distress Ink . It’s definitely a quick and simple card… and I love it! Hope you do too!
Inky hugs,
Tara
Happy Tuesday!
I fell in love with this Bloom with Grace stamp set by Altenew a while ago but somehow it kept getting set to the side while I worked on something else… the bonus to that is that when I needed a quick card this week I had a few ideas in mind already! I splurged & got the coordinating dies (something I rarely do!) and it definitely helped me put this card together easily!
I stamped & colored the larger image in the set with Distress Watercolor Pencil Crayons, then cut it with the coordinating die. I stamped a sentiment on a strip of green cardstock and then did some quick Distress Oxide Ink blending on a Kraft card stock base. I kept the color heavier (freshly inked up) in the middle and faded it out toward the edges of the card.
I finished it off by splattering a bit of water over the ink, then added a few splatters of white spray (like this one). A few vanilla sequins and a bit of thin twine finished it all off for me!
Hope you like how it all came together, I think I’ll make something similar with the smaller stamp and try out a few more ideas… watch for that on Instagram later this week!
Inky hugs,
Tara
