Brayered Daffodil Delight ink at the top of a 3.5″ x 7″ piece of Whisper White card stock.

Brayered Lucky Limeade at the bottom of the card stock.

Brayered Old Olive ink at the bottom of the card stock, not covering the Lucky Limeade ink entirely.

Brayered Always Artichoke ink at the bottom of the card stock not covering the Old Olive ink entirely.

Stamped deer by loading the stamp with Soft Suede ink and then sponging Early Espresso ink at the bottom of the deer stamp before stamping to create a shadow on the bottom half of the deer.

Stamped the bird using Cherry Cobbler ink.

Using the edge of the Always Artichoke ink pad used the direct to paper method to put in some grasses.  This is an upward stroke.

Adhered a 3.75″ x 8.75″ Old Olive panel to a 4″ x 9″ Basic Black panel and then put two lines of pierced holes across the bottom and top of the Old Olive panel.

Added White gel pen lines from one pierced whole to the next to create some faux stitching.

Added a 3 5/8″ x 7 1/8″ Basic Black panel underneith the main image panel.  Also added some Summer Starfruit Ribbon.

Assembled the card and added Basic Black brads.

Here is the finished card measuring 4″ x 9″.  This size card fits into a #10 size office envelope.   🙂

May your day be filled with golden light.
