2019 Thanksgiving Mini's Part 2


Here are the rest of the mini Thanksgiving cards I've been working on.  

These all required hand-made greetings/focals - and all were made using two stamp sets (JustRite Antique Autumn Tags One and Autumn Vintage Labels Three) and the matching dies (if applicable).  Papers were from a variety of sources - DCWV mat stacks, papers from cardmaking magazines, and color me paper.  Sequins, and brads from my stash. 


Sometimes, to get the right color, I had to stamp with 2 different inks - one on top of the other.  I also did some coloring with water brush & ink, as well as with my Scroll & Brush markers.


The first card uses color me paper - which was colored using gelatos - scribbling directly on & using finger/baby wipe to blend.  After stamping the tag for the last one, I heat embossed it with clear embossing powder to keep it from smearing because it didn't want to dry very fast!
