Warmest Thanks - Hero Arts

Warmest Thanks

Hello there, Michelle here, today I have a card to share using the new Autumn Wreath set that was released as an add-on to the September 2019 My Monthly Hero Kit. I thought the image would work well for an autumnal thank you card.

I started off by stamping the main wreath image from the Autumn Wreath stamp set on to a 4.25" x 4.25" white cardstock panel using Intens-ified Black Ink. This was then coloured using Copic Markers. I stamped the individual acorn, pine cone and mushroom on to more white cardstock and coloured these with Copic Markers also.

They were die-cut out using the Autumn Wreath Frame Cuts. I adhered the wreath panel on to a white 4.5" x 4.5" card base using foam tape. I then added the acorn, pine cone and mushroom on top with thin foam tape, in the bottom left corner.

I took the sentiment from the Thank You Messages set and stamped this on Pitch Black Premium Cardstock using Clear Embossing & Watermark Ink. I applied White Detail Embossing Powder and heat set. This was then cut in to a strip and added to the card with more foam tape. I added a bow of black twine in the bottom left and then finished with a few clear gems around the sentiment.

Thank you so much for stopping by today, happy stamping!
