Stampin' Up! Only Challenges #288: Autumn, Fall, Thanksgiving with Sparkle of the Season Bundle + Masking Technique

Hello there! Thank you for joining me today for Stampin’ Up! Only Challenges 288, #SUOC288, where we have an autumnal theme of Fall or Thanksgiving, and hope that you join us!

My original plan for this bundle was to feature 3 projects of Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Instead, I decided to break my leg on September 26 and missed featuring the Halloween card, but will be showcasing a Christmas card with this bundle on Thursday.

As always, your shopping Supplies and Instructions, including measurements, are below.

I started out with an A2 Early Espresso card base. I cut a piece of Bumblebee and Mossy Meadow Beauty of the Earth DSP and adhered this to the card base centered left and right, top to bottom, with full-size Black Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I cut a piece of Basic White Regular CS to 3-3/4 x 4-3/4. My Bumblebee leaf accent stamp lightly inked up with Old Olive ink around the edges was planned around my sentiment mat and panel. I used my Ornate Frame die to cut a piece of masking paper that I adhered to the image panel where I wanted the focus point. I inked up the leaf image with Bumblebee and Old Olive using Clear Block B to impress the image around the mask, as shown below.

This is what the image panel looks like when I pull the masking paper off.

I then stamped the sentiment onto Crumb Cake CS with Early Espresso ink and cut from the Ornate Frames Die. The sentiment to the image panel with Black Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Two large Gold Holly Leaves were adhered to the image panel with Mini Glue Dots with a bow tied in Linen Thread adhered to the center of the leaves with a glue dot.

The image panel was adhered to the Beauty of the Earth DSP mat with Black Stampin’ Dimensionals for even more dimension and texture.

The inside of the card is much like the front of the card with detail and dimension.

I hope you enjoyed today’s project. Thank you for stopping by for a visit and have a great day! Don’t forget to join our challenge today.
