What’s black and white, and Cinnamon Cider all over? Today’s Global Design Project! This week is a fun color challenge; black and white, and a color of your choice. I chose Cinnamon Cider for my Fall card with Stitched Leaves. Aren’t the leaves pretty, cut from Expressions in Ink Designer Paper? And, I love that there are dies to “emboss” the stitching.
Pumpkin & Leaves
After cutting the leaves, I stamped a pumpkin, from the Pretty Pumpkins Stamp Set, in Stazon Black Ink on Thick Basic White Cardstock, and used a Detailed Pumpkins Die for cutting. The background is a layer of Basic White Cardstock, cut with the largest Ornate Layers Die, and embossed with the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder.
Prior to embossing the layer, I stamped the sentiment in Cinnamon Cider Ink. “So thankful for you” is from the Pretty Pumpkins Stamp Set. The layer is glued to a Cinnamon Cider card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
Did you notice the cute tie on the pumpkin? It is Black & White Gingham Trim, colored with a Cinnamon Cider Stampin’ Blend. Stampin’ Blends have alcohol content, making them great coloring tools for ribbon, because they dry quickly.
