Instructions

Step 1: Using the Wendy Vecchi Stay-tion, hold down the Stark White Cardstock with the magnetic ruler. Stamp the “Thank You, Thanks and Thanks Lots” sentiments from It's the Little Things Stamp Set. Stamp them with Grey Tinted Embossing Ink, in rows working from the bottom up on the Cardstock.

Step 2: Finish stamping the Sentiments and fading off towards the top of the Cardstock. Then use White Embossing Powder and heat that until melted.

Step 3: Use the Non-Stick Craft Sheet on top of the Stay-tion for ink blending. Using non-traditional fall colors, start inking (with the Mini Ink Blending Tools) at the bottom of the stamped Cardstock with Seedless Preserves, then blend in Festive Berries.

Step 4: Next blend Worn Lipstick and Dried Marigold. Continue blending until there is a smooth transition between colors.

Step 5: Use a paper towel and gently wipe the ink from the embossed words. Then trim paper to slightly smaller than an A2 size card. Use twine and wrap around lower half of card panel a few times and glue in place with Multi Medium Matte Glue.

Step 6: Adhere Foil Die Cut with Foam Adhesive over the twine. Then adhere colored panel to an A2 size card base using Multi Medium Matte Glue.

Step 7: Add finishing touches with Liquid Pearls in: Orchid, Coral and Raspberry.
