Morning readers,
I've a make to share with you today .......
I've a make to share with you today .......
 |
| My C6 card |
 |
| My foiled background |
And my ink blending layers ......
Materials used:
- White, 250gsm, C6 card and matching envelope
- Card in white, Kraft, black - for my card front, insert and matting
- Snippets of card in white and black, for my image panel
- Using a makeup brush and Distress Inks I blended my background till I was happy (see above) - DI's wild honey, tea dye, frayed burlap and black soot
- TPS autumnal image (from Autumn Harvest) stamped using Versafine onyx black ink
- With my TCW stencil (486S) in place, I applied a layer of glue stick through the stencil.
- After removing the stencil, I overlaid my gold foil, burnishing firmly with my fingers and setting aside to "dry" before peeling back the foil
- Whilst distinctlyy masculine in both colours and image I felt it COULD also work for a woman so opted to leave a sentiment off ... until I make a decision regarding the recipient
I'll be entering the above make for the following challenges:-
- Cardz4Guyz - challenge No. 332 - AUTUMN/FALL/SHADES OF BROWN
- Try It On Tuesday - October 3rd challenge - AUTUMN

Fabulous card Kathy, a really beautiful creation. xx
A great autumn design Kathy and love the brown ink blended background with the added gold foil over the pretty stencilled background. x
What an interesting and beautiful background you have created. I also like that you kept your image as a silhouette so your background shines. Thanks for joining us at MMM. Johanna DT
What a beautiful acorn emblem, Kathy! I love all the coffee and cream colors you have here, and the touches of gold! Thanks so much for playing at Make My Monday!
Fantastic...love your acorn silhouettes!! Thanks for playing along with our "Shades of Brown" challenge over at Cardz 4 Guyz!! You nailed the masculine element along with a great variety of "shades of brown" in your coffee & cream ink shading. -Deb Horst, DT #C4G332
