I've decided that I really like this type of card with this central panel as you can make it look so varied by either stamping, adding die cuts, some dry embossing with a lovely folder and of course water colouring that you can see in the same type of card in my tantalizing stamper post.
This version is a card we made in my online class this week. I send kits to everyone and they follow along using what they have at home with the kit I have supplied. It's great fun and we have a lot of chatter and lots of giggles. We're always open to welcoming more people to the group as it's definitely a case of the more the merrier.
So I used the colours Terracotta Tile, Old Olive, Crushed Curry, Early Espresso and Soft Suede and stamped lots of images from the Stampin' Up! Beautiful Autumn set. To create the outer splatter patterns I used the corn grain stamp but used second and third generation ink and also used a couple of markers for ink splatter.
I also added a flourish of Bumblebee gingham ribbon prior to adding my simply stamped sentiment also in the set onto a stitched circle die cut.
The measurements for this particular card are as follows.
Card back in Terracotta Tile 14.8 x 10.5cm
Embossed layer in Vanilla 14.3 x 10 cm
Card fold in Terracotta Tile 28.9 x 7cm scored on the long side at 14.8cm
Stamped layer in Vanilla 14.3 x 6.5cm
The great thing is that you still have room to stamp inside and write sentiments. One of the card club ladies wasn't happy with her embossing layer so she moved the folded panel to one side and that looked great too. Here are most of the cards.
It's simple to do so I hope you'll have a go. Via my other share you can also link to Linda in my team to see where I got the idea and the beautiful version she did with Forever Fern.
Have a fabulous weekend and remember to ........
Keep safe and keep stamping.
