This stamp is from Country Morning, a Hostess Level 1 set. It’s really not my typical “style” but I told myself I would try to use it and branch out a little bit.
I did some tearing/distressing on this card (something I NEVER do) because it’s a rustic image. The base is Creamy Caramel card stock, layered with Bravo Burgundy and Mellow Moss. The Mellow Moss was sponged with Mellow Moss ink and torn along the bottom edge. The Bravo Burgundy layer was embossed using the Sizzix Textured Impressions Wedding Set #2 (see link here). Then, I used my sanding block to distress the raised image a bit.
The rooster image was stamped on Naturals White card stock (another one I never seem to use) in Stazon Brown ink. I watercolore the image using my Aquapainter and ink pads. To finish off the layer, I tore the edges and sponged them with Creamy Caramel ink. I attached it to the card using dimensionals.
At the bottom of the card, I added the sentiment from the stamp set, stamped on Whisper White card stock with Basic Brown ink.
