The card for today is one that is an easy layout. A little stamping and some strips of DSP can create a pretty card for any occasion. The one I have made is a more masculine Thanks. I hope you will give this layout a try.

STAMPS

These two stamps are from the same great stamp set. It is the Textured Notes stamp set. And it includes Dies that can be bundled. I know you are familiar with them if you follow me, because I use those Dies regularly. They are the rectangles that all have a different edge detail. So this is an amazing stamp bundle to have in your stash.

The sentiment is stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I had to make sure it would fit on my already cut paper as it is pretty long. Luckily it was a fit! The leaf is one stamp that I have repeated three times. It is stamped using Cajun Craze Ink. I stamped it full strength on the right, again in the center, and yet again on the left. Because this is a deep color of ink, there is still plenty of color left on that third stamping. Not all ink will look this well, but I love how this one turned out.

PAPERS

These gorgeous DSP strips are from the Woven Textures Designer Series Paper. They are part of the Suite of products that include the stamp bundle above. These are Onliine Exclusives. To pair with the DSP colors, I pulled all shades of brown to decide on the best combination. Pecan Pie won as the card base. Early Espresso is the layer, with Crumb Cake for the top layer. I thought about embossing that one, but then thought the strips would be enough.

The focal layers are Pecan Pie again, and then Basic Beige. I do love Basic Beige. It seems to pair well with most colors and pick up their color a little. Plus it was light enough to do the three stamping technique with no difficulty on the color.

EXTRAS

The Extra I used is what I thought would match great with the colors. Sadly, it is a discontinued item. I used the Adhesive Back Swirl Dots. However, any tan or brown embellishment would work. And you can color a pearl or rhinestone with Stampin’ Blends.
