I created a card using the Craft Consortium Metal Textures paper, Simon Says Counting Blessings 6" x 8" and CZ Designs Small Thanks 3" x 4" stamp sets and Red Maple Wafer die set included in the kit along with Simon Says Leafy Wreath Embossing Folder from the Sugar and Spice release.I trimmed one of the Craft Consortium Metal Textures 6" x 6" papers to 4" x 5.1/4",embossed using the Leafty Wreath Embossing Folder, sanded over the detail to reveal the white core of the paper and fussy cut around the inside to create an aperture.I fixed the panel to an A2 card blank, scored and folded from the Simon Says Ivory cardstock included in the kit.I inked the wheat sheaf image from the Counting Blessing stamp set with Vintage Photo Distress Archival ink, stamped twice on to the Ivory cardstock, fussy cut the original wheat sheaf and the second image to make individual wheat sheaf stems. I applied a coat of Distress Collage Medium on the aperture to hold Tim Holtz/Idea-ology Mummy Cloth in place and added the wheat sheaf sprig popped up on Simon Says Thin Foam Squares.I die-cut the Thanks shadow from Ivory cardstock and the word from the remaining patterned paper, layered and fixed in place with Simon Says Thin Foam Squares. I added 3 individual wheat stems to balance out the arrangement.To finish I inked the sentiment from CZ Designs Small Thanks stamp set with Vintage Photo Distress Archival ink on to a strip of Ivory cardstock and fixed in place with Simon Says Thin Foam Squares.In the meantime, have fun with whatever you're making.



Beautiful card as always Kath. x
