Hey There,
I’m on the Stampin’ Up! Thailand Trip right now and off the grid and will not be back until the 17th, so in my absence I decided to share some of my favorite card tutorials from the past with you. This one is from 2010.
Now on with today’s free tutorial. . . . . . .please note some of these supplies are retired but you can switch them out with current products.

On a 4″ square piece of Whisper White card stock stamp the plant from the Stampin’ Up! Pocket Silhouettes set by first loading the stamp with Versamark and then loading it with Basic Black ink before stamping it. Stamped it twice and then heat embossed the images using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.
Over stamped the embossed images with the same stamp by loading it with Versamark and then Old Olive ink before stamping it. Heat embossed the Old Olive images with clear embossing powder and a heat gun.
Stamped another stamp from the Stampin’ Up! set Pocket Silhouettes by first loading the stamp with Versamark and then Really Rust ink before stamping it. Heat embossed the Really Rust images using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.
Stamped the Tree from the Stampin’ Up! Thoughts & Prayers by first loading the stamp with Versamark and then Old Olive ink, tapped a bit of Basic Black ink on the Trunk of the tree and then stamped it. Heat embossed the tree image using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.
Now that my images are heat embossed the will resist ink so I can now put in my background.
Brayered Tempting Turquoise ink from the at the top of the card stock.
Brayered Lovely Lilack ink at the top of the card stock, not covering the Tempting Turquoise ink entirely.
Used two post it notes and mask the sky and the left side of the card stock in order to put in a wall. Sponged Basic Gray ink in the unmasked area.
Removed the masks and wiped the ink off of my embossed images.
Put a post it note mask at the top of the wall and sponged a little Old Olive ink in for grass.
Added White Gel Pen highlights to the leaves of the tree and plants.
Sponged Elegant Eggplant ink around the edges of the card stock.
Stamped the Stampin’ Up! Thanks image from the set Thank You Kindly using Basic Black ink.
Added White Gel Pen highlights to the sentiment.
Added a few random dots in the sky for stars.
Out lined some of the branches to give the tree a bit more dimension.
Added Old Olive, Lovely Lilac and Elegant Eggplant Panels, Elegant Eggplant Ribbon and a couple of Clear Circle Rhinestone Brads.
Here is the finished card measuring 5.5″ square.
