Sweet Saturday with Home To Roost



Just a Note Card Tutorial
A little stamping and a little coloring, and this card is done.  The Home To Roost Stamp Set is a perfect addition to with two images and four sentiments that are perfect for every day occasions.  And, it's a Sale-a-Bration item, which means you can get it FREE with any $50 purchase.  I love how the images look like they are built with brush strokes, which gives a watercolor or sketched appearance.  It is perfect for adding touches of color, especially with Stampin' Blends.  Who do you know that could use "Just a Note" now and then?

Just a Note Card Tutorial
Home To Roost Stamp Set

Measurements:

Base: Whisper White Thick Cardstock, 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", score and fold at 4 1/4"
Layer 1: Merry Merlot Cardstock,
Layering Square Framelit, 2 3/8"
Layer 2:  Whisper White Cardstock, Stitched Shapes Framelit, 2 1/4"


Instructions:

1.  Stamp wheat image repeatedly across Base, stamp a second time without reinking each time you stamp, stamping the second images slightly higher on the Base so they look farther back.  Stamp in Crushed Curry Ink.

2.  Stamp "Just a Note" sentiment on the lower left corner of the Base in Merry Merlot Ink.

3.  Stamp rooster image onto Layer 2 using Crumb Cake Ink.  Color rooster using Stampin' Blends in light/dark in Cherry Cobbler, Mango Melody, Shaded Spruce, and Crumb Cake.  Be sure to put this Layer onto a scrap paper as the Blends will bleed through to layers below!  (I colored the tail with Shaded Spruce and Crumb Cake, the ground with Crumb Cake, lower body with Crumb Cake and the head and chest with Cherry Cobbler and Mango Melody)

4.  Adhere the Layer 2 to Layer 1 using Snail.

5.  Adhere Layers to Base over the stamped wheat on the Base on the right side using Dimensionals.
