Here's another card made from Anna Wight's newest release of Fall stamp sets for Whipper Snapper. I used her Give Thanks cling set.
I began by stamping the tree with Tsukineko Memento Rich Cocoa ink onto Neenah Natural White cardstock. Then I cut the image with Spellbinders new Labels 2 die (due to begin shipping next month). While the image was still in the die, I airbrushed it with Copic G24 Sketch marker. I didn't want to worry with trying to make a mask and cutting out all those little leaves, so I used Copic Colorless Blender marker to remove any green airbrushing that got onto any leaves and then colored them back in with the markers and glitter pens shown below:
I cut a mat of BasicGrey Mellow paper, sanded the edges and layered it behind the tree image. It is popped up on dimensional foam tape on a card base of My Mind's Eye Out & About Card Pack (Michael's, also sanded the edges).
Then I had fun with stamping a sentiment from the same Give Thanks set with Black StazOn onto natural twill (Stampin' Up). The twill was tied up with a Making Memores aged copper brad.
I like my stamp sets to be versatile, so as you can see, this set could very easily be used for other seasons just by changing the leaf colors. There's also a cute row of apples and other "non-Thanksgiving" sentiments you could use throughout the year.
I hope you are enjoying your weekend. I have a bunch of last-of-the-month design work to catch up on and I'll try to share some new artwork next week!
