Now let’s start today’s tutorial. . . .

Supplies:

Cut a large Circle out of Whisper White card stock the Clear Circle die and the Big Shot Machine.

Brayered Tempting Turquoise ink at the top of the card stock.

Brayered Soft Suede ink at the bottom of the card stock.

Stamped the Always Thankful stamp using Jet Black StazOn ink.

Masked the top of the card stock using a post it note and sponged Soft Suede ink at the post it note edge to create a field line.

Keep moving the post it note mask down a bit and sponge to create the rest of the field lines.

Colored the pumpkins in using a More Mustard marker.

Colored the squash and corn in using a Daffodil Delight marker.

Colored the bottom of the pumpkins in using a Pumpkin Pie Marker.

Colored the leaves and stems in using an Old Olive marker.

Colored in the wheel using Sahara Sand marker.

Colored the wood handles in using a Crumb Cake Marker.

Added White Gel Pen to the flowers and Silver Gel pen to the center of the wheel.

Colored the Wheel Barrel in using a Real Red marker.  Added Cherry Cobbler marker to the bottom of the wheel barrel.

Added Cajun Craze marker to the very bottoms of the pumpkins.

Added Chocolate Chip marker to the bottom of the wood rails, the wheel barrel and the ground.

Using the Spritzer and a Chocolate Chip marker, added speckles to the ground area.

Embossed a 6.25″ x 2″ piece of Soft Suede Card stock using the Big Shot Machine and the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.

Inked up the Fancy Fan Letterpress with Cherry Cobbler ink and put a 4.75″ x 6.25″ piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock on top of it.  You can run this through the Big Shot Machine, but I wanted it to be a little lighter in color so I just used my Brayer and rolled over the back side of the card stock to transfer the color onto it.

Assembled the card by adding a 5″ x 6.5″ piece of Soft Suede card stock, Whisper White Ribbon, silver brads and Jumbo Grommet.

Here is the finished card measuring 5″ x 6.5″

May your day be full of Blue skies and soft breezes.

Until my next post. . . . .
