A golden-hued, fall-themed "thank you" card with a masculine bent.
Create a 3 3/8 x 5” card base from Sticks & Stones cardstock and accent the edges by running a Delicata Golden Glitz ink pad along the sides.
Cut a 2 7/8 x 4 1/4” piece of Storm cardstock and dry emboss a border around the outside edge. Stamp the sentiment toward the bottom (leaving room for the leaf) in Onyx Black VersaFine and heat emboss with clear powder.
Add three brads below the sentiment and edge the sides of the cardstock with Delicata Golden Glitz.
Mat with a 3 x 4 3/8” piece of Grand Canyon cardstock and adhere to the front of the prepared card with dimensional foam.
On a separate piece of Storm cardstock, stamp the leaf with Onyx Black VersaFine and heat emboss with Clear Embossing Powder.
Using a Brushstix, pull color from the individual segments of the Kaleidacolor Ink Pad and color the image. Continue coloring, from lighter to darker using a separate Brushstix for each color, until the desired shading has been achieved.
Trim the leaf and place on a protected surface. Thoroughly shake to mix Copper Sheer Shimmer Spritz. Apply a few drops to an InkBlusher and lightly pounce onto the leaf.
Attach the leaf to the front of the prepared card above the sentiment with dimensional foam.
