Autumn Smiles

 Hi friends! Today I'm popping in to share a card featuring the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps October Stamp of the Month, My Thoughts of You. I'm absolutely smitten with the big uplifting sentiments in this lovely set! It's a definite must have in my book. Be prepared to see a lot of it on my upcoming cards!


For today's card, I started by masking off  the edges of a panel of white cardstock, then ink blending crackling campire and wild honey over an Autumn Layering Stencil. Once the blending on the leaves were how I liked them, I decided to add a touch of texture.  So with the stencil still in place, I used the Embossing Dabber to add just a bit of embossing ink to the bottoms of each leaf, then removed the stencil and sprinkled crackling campfire embossing glaze  over it and heat set. Such a nice subtle texture to it!

Next I embossed the smile sentiment from My Thoughts of You with copper embossing powder in the center of the panel.  I blended antique linen and gathered twigs inks around the edges of the stamped panel and then layered on a foam sheet over a kraft card base also blended with brown inks.

I love how these big, beautiful sentiments can make sending encouragement cards super quick and easy!
