3-ways Autumn cards

Lots of different ideas with these three cards.

The focus of my cards is threefold:

1. by creating small panels / tags / shapes you can use any stamp set on any sized card. You don’t always have to create a bouquet or a grouping or a scene. The panels help each image be on its own and we can use colors to tie them together.

2. two tone stamping - works great with solid stamped images and is a great way to not make them look flat. For this, ink the stamp set with your lightest color by using the ink pad, and then use spong daubers to ink the stamp with the darker ink. Unlike the edges of ink pads, the daubers will avoid any harsh lines.

3. (I ran out of time for this in my reels video) ink blending around the edges of a colored panel will help draw focus to your focal point. A few extra seconds can make a big difference. Try it out!

I hope you liked these ideas and try them in your cards too.

Enjoy!
