So today I had a fun little Snow Day to play around at my stamping station and came up with this treat that I'll be sending off to a friend soon.
First I started by coloring the Black and White patterned paper with some Lemon Drop and Lemon Grass ink using a sponge dauber. Then I cut out the Scalloped Pocket die from some Black Licorice paper. After that, applied the inked patterned paper to the diecut and cut it to fit. I applied some lime green ribbon from and some Black Journey Twine, then added a little Wood Accent button to incorporate the Oatmeal Cookie color in the color challenge. When the pocket was complete I set it aside and started on the Huckleberry base.
I stamped the Huckleberry base cardstock with Pineapple Smoothie Ink and the Postage Stamp ATS.
I wanted to include a little treat in the pocket. It had to be small enough to fit in the pocket but not too big as to cover up the patterned paper. I had some extra watercolor paper scraps so I decided to make an ATC that incorporated a little bit more of the blue color. The Huckleberry Fusion ink was the perfect fit with the Rose Garden ATS.
To finish off the card and the ATC, I added some black scraps from the diecut, gold ribbon, Sparkle Drops (that I sponged with the Lemon ink) some Sparkle Dust/Journey Glaze and a Photo Pin Element that holds the "Journey" sentiment from the Bezel Blocks ATS.
Hope you enjoy!
...woops! I notice I didn't color one of the leaves...back to the craft room to add the color before it heads out in the mail!
