Sapphire ink was used with the December Word Puzzle on Willow cardstock. I know, it's odd to have the green with the purple and blue - those are tertiary colors.
Not that fast! Before you adhere any cardstock, you're going to take your sanding kit and sand the paper to reveal the white core. Don't worry about the stamped words, you can sand them too. By doing so, you bring in some white to soften the intensity of color (especially the Willow paper) and marry the white from the cardstock.
Gold Foil Tape separates the Sapphire and Willow papers. And if you can see them, there are 3 Dream Big Glitter Gems on top of the Foil Tape.
This second card also comes from Originals (retiring at the end of the month). Buckle (page 82), I think, was the perfect choice for this card.
The colors are Poppy, Ruby, Fern, Canary, and New England Ivy.
Before I continue, I'd like to point out what NOT to do. And that is not pay attention to your drawn lines. I'm sure you see my line to the left of "Holidays" is slanted. Well,that's because I didn't pay enough attention. Had I paid attention, the line would be straight and higher in the corner.
Now that that rant is over, on with how the card was made. : )
Enchantment Fundamentals - New England Ivy is the background paper for this card. The trees were stamped with Fern (the outside two) and New England Ivy. The stars were stamped with Canary (there are three stars). Then the stars were stamped on scratch paper and then colored in with Pastel Green. Two were cut out and then glued onto the focal. The trees were 3D Foam Tape raised on Ruby cardstock. The two buckle parts are Poppy cardstock. I distressed them with the direct to paper technique - love that look.
"Happy" is stamped in Ruby and "Holidays" in New England Ivy. As I mentioned earlier, I drew a line with the Journaling Pen around the base of the card as well as the focal trees. The card was finished off with the Green Triangular Gems (I thought they looked like trees).
