This morning I was in the mood to create something a little different and this is what I came up with. I found myself pulling out set after set of stamps and combined them to create this little cologe.
Before I start the tutorial I need to announce the lucky blog candy winner who won the Stampin’ Up stamp set “Forest Friends”.
The winner is. . . . . . .. . .. . . . . .

Stamped the leaves from the Stampin’ Up set Autumn Days by first loading the stamp with Versamark and then loading the stamp with Dusty Durango Ink before stamping it on a 4″ square piece of Very Vanilla card stock. Heat embossed the images using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.
Stamped the Flourish from the Stampin’ Up set Friends 24-7 down the right side of the card stock with Sahara Sand ink stamping off once each time I inked the the stamp.
Stamped the branch from the Stampin’ Up set Bird on a Branch using Creamy Caramel ink.
Masked the sides of the card stock using post it notes.
Stamped the Stampin’ Up Background stamp En Francais using Sahara Sand ink in the unmasked area of the card stock.
Unmasked.
Stamped the tower using Sahara Sand ink.
Colored in a couple of sections of the tower using a Sahara Sand marker.
Drew in a branch and connected the two leaves using a Basic Black marker.
Stamped Lightly the Stampin’ Up Background stamp Sanded using Creamy Caramel ink.
Sponged Creamy Caramel ink around the edges of the card stock.
Sponged Basic Gray ink around the edges.
Cut a 5 1/8″ square piece of Sahara sand card stock and stamp just the tip of the Flourish using Sahara Sand ink all around the edge.
Added a Dusty Durango Panel under my main image panel, adhered them to the Sahara Sand panel. Punched 4 small Photo Corners out of Dusty Durango card stock and adhered them to the sides of the main image panel.
Cut the tips off of the photo corners so they were even with the Sahara Sand panel.
Sponged Basic Gray ink around the card stock panel.
Added a 5.25″ square piece of Dusty Durango as the last layer.
Using the Mat Pack and a piercing tool, pierced holes above the corners of the main image panel and then connected the wholes with a Creamy Caramel marker to create Faux Stitching.
Added Gold brads to the main image panel corners.
Here is the finished card measuring 5.25″ square.
Have a very happy Monday!
Until my next post. . . . . .
Hugs,
Michelle
