The wonderful Hint of Autumn release from The Greetery recently landed in the store, and let's just say I made the most of my birthday gift voucher!
For my card today, I'm featuring one of the sets that was at the top of my wish list.
As many of you will know, I absolutely love layering stencils, especially those with a real wow factor, and the Mushroom Meadow stencil set has just that.
There are six steps (with a handy colour guide included with the stencils), plus for those who have a foiling system, the corresponding Mushroom Meadow hot foil plate will take this design to the next level.
I always find the guide images included with The Greetery's layering products so helpful for getting to know your way around the set, so I picked some colours that were roughly similar to blend on Ivory cardstock.
I wanted to combine the Mushroom Meadow background with a bold card base. So I grabbed The Greetery's Capsule Basics dies (also new in this release) and cut the stencilled panel with the largest capsule die, and mounted it on the largest scallop capsule die for extra pop.
For my sentiment, I grabbed the new Oblong Octagon Labels stamps and dies and opted for the smallest label in the set stamped on rustic cream cardstock. I added the folksy accent from the Capsule Collection Floral Borders stamp set and then added Red Gold paint from the Gansai Tambi Starry Colors watercolour set around the edge.
I finished off the card with a few more paint flicks at the bottom of the card.
And there we go!
I have a little off-cut of the Mushroom Meadow background left over, so I may well make another card with it.
Until next time, happy crafting!
