November 2018 Card Kit – More Card Kit Inspiration with Kristina Werner!
Hi all! Kristina Werner here. Have you all seen the November 2018 Card Kit? It’s packed with fun autumn themed products and stamps. Today I thought I’d show you an easy and simple, colorful stamped card using the stamp set in the kit, Thanks and Leaves.
I first stamped a couple of the greetings from the stamp set and heat embossed them using gold embossing powder. Then, I stamped the leaves from the stamp set around the greetings, starting from the bottom. I changed colors of ink multiple times in order to create bands of color moving up the card.
The five Distress Oxide inks I used are:
- Walnut Stain Distress Oxide Ink
- Forest Moss Distress Oxide Ink
- Fired Brick Distress Oxide Ink
- Rusty Hinge Distress Oxide Ink
- Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Ink
I then adhered the stamped piece to a 7×5 card base made out of Desert Storm cardstock.
Thanks for stopping by today! You can grab the November 2018 Card Kit here, or subscribe to this kit and future kits here. :)
