Last week was a very long post. I promise this week won't be nearly as long! I'll be posting each Monday in October my swaps from our annual Fall Fest event. If you'd like to see that post, you can find it
HERE. The group of swaps I have for you today are different but shows the same technique. It's called Eclipse. I did this recently in my monthly Technique Class.
This first card was done by my very good friend Dale. She choose the Painted Harvest set. As you can see, just by changing out the colors on the sunflower, it gives it a whole new look! I LOVE these colors! They're my favorite (generally speaking). Her card base is Rich Razzleberry and so is the darker of the purples. The other is Sweet Sugarplum. The center of the flower is Crumb Cake and Sweet Sugarplum. She did the leaves in Old Olive and Pear Pizzazz. The "Happy Birthday" is from Birthday Blossoms and stamped with Memento Black. Everything was stamped on Whisper White then layered on Basic Black.
This next card was by Annette. I haven't seen Annette in a long time! She had foot surgery earlier this year, ouch! Annette used the Carols of Christmas, which I had for my first Product of the month! You can find more ideas
HERE! The card base here is Cherry Cobbler and she stamped everything on Whisper White. Her ink colors were Cherry Cobbler, Smoky Slate, & Garden Green.
This last card made by Barbara. She used Good Tidings. This is such a pretty stamp set. It's what we call a two step stamp set, just like Painted Harvest. Barbara told me to create the holly branch it took about 6 stamps & inks! It's absolutely beautiful! I really love these holiday colors. So to start off with, she used Whisper White for her base and for the stamp layer. She embossed Old Olive with the Holly Embossing Folder. The other layer of card stock is Cherry Cobbler. All the inks she used were: Cherry Cobbler, Rose Red, Old Olive, Pear Pizzazz, Early Espresso, Soft Suede. She has Basic Black, but I really don't see it.
Everyone used the Large Letter Framelits to die cut the letters. To pop up the letters you can use either our dimensionals or the the foam adhesive strips. I've done it with the dimensionals but I must say the strips do really give it a lot more dimension!
Thanks for stopping by. I'd love to hear your comments! If you need help with anything, please
