Nature’s Root Thank You Card
Welcome to Mitosu Crafts UK, thanks for stopping by. It’s Jay Soriano here with a Thank You card idea for The Spot creative challenge using Nature’s Root Dies from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue.
The Spot Creative Challenge
The Spot design team creates Stampin Up inspirations for a weekly card making challenge every Tuesday. It’s a Colour Challenge this week which looks autumnal to me which is why I chose Nature’s Root Dies.
Tone On Tone Smooshing
I have never done tone on tone smooshing before but I’m glad I tried it for this card. It added a subtle texture to the layer which I love. Plus it’s so easy to do too! Start off by inking up an acrylic block with Blackberry Bliss ink, spritz with a little water then stamp on the Blackberry Bliss card layer then you’re done. Easy right?! I left this to dry which gave me time to work on the rest of the elements.
Nature’s Root Embossed Die Cut Leaves
The Nature’s Root Dies set has a couple of embossing dies, creating the impressions on the cardstock for the leaves’ details. I die cut the leaves first on Thick Whisper White then embossed with the dies. This makes it easier to realign the dies and the embossing to be more prominent.
Mint Macaron ink was sponged in different areas of the leaves followed by Cinnamon Cider all over for a more autumnal look.
I distressed the layer using Paper Snips and added the 2 small leaves. I wrapped Linen Thread 3 times then adhered on the Mint Macaron tent fold cardbase. The larger leaf was added using Mini Dimensionals and Linen Thread bow with Mini Glue Dot.
Thank You For All You Do
This sentiment comes from Rooted In Nature stamp set which coordinates with Nature’s Root Dies. It’s also perfect for the Stampin Glam Squad tutorial bundle for this month, with the theme of ‘Thank You For Your Service’. I only remembered this until after I created my 2 projects using Arrange A Wreath Bundle though.
To finish, I used the clear gems from Flowers For Every Season Gems pack and stitched Gold Foil accents.
