WT437 ~ Rustic Layers ~

Good morning!  I have a couple of simple note cards to share using a couple of new releases from North Coast Stampers.  Both cards also fit perfectly with this week's Ways to Use It Challenge at Split Coast Stampers.  The object...  to use layers... 

Both images were stamped on Kraft paper with sepia ink and then layered on DP and three layers of card stock.

Here's the first card I created featuring a beautiful summer scene ....

 

 

Doesn't it look like the gazebo in the middle of your town square?  I added a bit of gingham DP for a country feel with a quatrefoil die cut panel on top.  I colored the image with Copics and inks using a punched scallop to create sponged "clouds."  I added a dab of Flower Soft where the original design called for flowers.  And just for a bit of punch, I added a few blossoms and paper punched sprigs in the corner.  I think I can smell that rose! 

 

Now on to card number 2...

 

 

I used the same technique on this one.  I colored with both Copics and ink. A few die cut vines, paper punched flowers with beads and a tiny lady bug adorn the side.  The lady bug was a brad I snipped and repurposed for this project.  The main CS layer is gray with white layering and some fun denim DP.  This image reminds me of the tobacco barn at the old home place.  I miss it so much!
