Now, on to my three cards featuring the oh, so fun Sassy Thankful stamp set!!
I created a background for this hilarious sentiment with the Leaves Wreath stencil set. I used just about every autumn shade of Distress Oxide ink I own to color in these beautiful leaves! I used some gold metallic watercolor to add some pretty sparkles to the piece.
Next I trimmed my stenciled piece to 3-¾" x 5". Then I heat embossed the sentiment from the Sassy Thankful set with gold embossing powder onto vellum and trimmed it into a strip. I wrapped it around the stenciled panel, added a brushed metallic gold layer, and adhered it to the card base.
Next up is my card that was super quick and easy to make! And...how great is this sentiment?!!!!
I put all the focus on the little turkey image and sentiment from the Sassy Thankful set by heat embossing both in gold. I colored up the turkey with a few Copic markers.
I trimmed the sentiment piece down and added more brushed gold cardstock behind it and the patterned paper layer. I did add foam tape to pop up the sentiment layer.
For my final card I had lots of watercoloring fun!
I started by gold heat embossing the Leafy Leaves background stamp onto watercolor paper. Then I used several watercolors to add all the gorgeous autumn colors to the piece.
Of course, since I love shimmers and sparkle, I added gold watercolor splatters to my piece. While that dried, I heat embossed the sentiment in gold onto vellum and wrapped it around the dry watercolored panel.
