Celebrate the Best Day Ever


Happy Friday Peeps!

Today's card share is another fall card, this one made with 
the Gather Together
set. 

I started this one by stamping the large leaf in this set several times onto some
Thick Whisper White card stock. I used Versamark ink and embossed the leaf images
with gold embossing powder.

I used my Aqua Painter and ink pads to color the leaves.
 I used Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze.
Although there is a die to fit this leaf,
 I fussy cut my leaf images so not to have any white showing.

I thought my pretty fall leaves needed a pretty blue sky to float around on.

I used a piece of watercolor paper and Balmy Blue ink.
I smashed my ink pad onto an acrylic block and used 
 my Aqua Painter to add color to my water color paper 
after first washing water across the paper
so the blue would flow.
I used my Heat Tool to dry the paper after adding the blue wash.


I added the leaves to the Water Colored paper with dimensionals.
I then trimmed it down to the size I needed for my card.

I matted this piece with Cajun Craze card stock.

My sentiment come from the Band Together Stamp set.
I stamped with Versamark onto a strip of Vellum card stock.
I embossed this with Gold embossing Powder.
I wrapped my sentiment piece around the card front and secured it to the back with
tear & tape.
I then added this to my Crumb Cake base.


I added a Cajun Craze Twine bow using the twine from the Come To Gather
Ribbon Combo Pack.
I finished with a few gold sequins.

Oh my, this is SO pretty, Vicki! I may have to case this one! I just adore your lovely blue background with the Fall colored leaves and the pops of gold! This one sang to me as I love the gold mixed in with the Fall colors! Your watercoloring is always amazing, my friend! Wonderful card, as always! TFS and Happy Friday!

This is so very pretty Vickie. I love that you fussy cut instead of die cut the embossed leaves.
