Etched Autumn

I love the way this card turned out!!  What do you think?  I have no idea where the PDF for it came from . . . I think maybe from Stampin' Up!© but I knew I had to try it.

My cardbase is Basic White Thick.  I took another piece of regular Basic White measuring 5" X 3.5" and embossed the Etched Autumn stamp with white embossing powder.  Then I took my Blending Brushes and used Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, Old Olive and Blackberry Bliss inks and brushed it over the heat embossed images at an angle.  I wiped it off with a paper towel and then proceed to cut my cardstock into four pieces.  I started by cutting the long side at 2" so I had one strip that was 2" and one was 3".  I cut the two inch piece at 1.5" and the 3" piece at 2.5".  I layered them on the card base and adhered them with adhesive.  I used the light side of the Blackberry Bliss Two Toned Cardstock and punched a 1 7/8" circle.  I embossed the sentiment with the white embossing powder a well.  The embellishments are from the 2025-2027 Flat Pearls collection.

I can't believe it but I think I am ready on time for Make-It-Monday today.  All I have to do is clean off the table after John is done with lunch and I am good to go.  It's been a while sisnce that has happened!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Happy Stamping!!
