Create With Stamping Friends Creatively Simple 271

Grateful Hearts Theme!

Hello blog readers and welcome to Create With Stamping Friends Creatively Simple! It’s time for another simple card using this month’s theme:

Although it’s the month of November, I’m still using leaves on some of my cards. The Lustrous Leaves Bundle is part of our new Hot Foiling System and I used the Gold Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls on the leaves. The foiling is fabulous!

You can see close-up photos of the gold on each leaf and I also used a layer of the Moonlit Flora Designer Paper cut at an angle:

Stampin’ Up! Products Used:

• Stamps: Scalloped Blooms
• Inks: Old Olive
• Cardstock: Cajun Craze, Old Olive, Calypso Coral, Golden Glow, Soft Sea Foam, Basic White
• Designer Paper: Moonlit Flora
• Tools & Accessories: Hot Foiling System, Lustrous Leaves Hot Foil Dies, Lustrous Leaves Decorative Masks, Blending Brushes, Stampin’ Dimensionals

Card Recipe:

• Card Base: Cajun Craze Cardstock 11 x 4-1/4. Score and fold at 5-1/2.
• Layer 2: Basic White Cardstock 5-1/4 x 4. Glue to card base.
• Layer 3: Moonlit Flora Designer Paper 4 x 4. Cut diagonally. Glue one piece to the bottom of the white layer (save the other piece for another card).
• Leaves: Use the hot foiling products to foil & cut 6 leaves with Cajun Craze, Old Olive, Calypso Coral, Golden Glow, Soft Sea Foam Cardstocks (tip: complete 5 leaves in each color to have on hand for future projects). Glue the two leaves on both ends flat and the oher 4 leaves with Stampin’ Dimensionals over the angled area of the designer paper.
