“Gratitude Card”
Variation #1: I substituted smaller rectangles (stamped & punched) in place of the heart squares in the card sketch. I also stamped on the card base with some watermark ink for a tone-on-tone background.
Variation #2: My sentiment was stamped. The word “gratitude” was heat embossed with some tinsel powder and the words beneath it were stamped with dark brown ink.
Variation #3: I added a narrower piece of pattern paper under my rectangles and tied a ribbon in a knot just above the sentiment.
Other tips: I created the stamped rectangles by layering multiple stamped images. Some were stamped with full ink, some with second/third generation inking to create depth. I also layered several colors of ink with the stamps and also along the edges with the foam blending tool.
