CASE'ing myself

We're still away enjoying some family fun at Great Wolf Lodge, but while we're gone I thought I'd share a project I did where I CASE'd my own design.  Check it out:

Fall-themed Thinking of You card featuring the Happy Scenes stamp set.
Now, you may recall a video I did a couple of weeks ago on the Emerging Colours Technique where I die-cut a leaf window.  I liked that idea so much I used it again! Here, I die-cut the leaf using the Leaflets Framelits from a piece of Kraft card stock.  I then embossed the panel using the Woodland TIEF.

The image in the window is stamped using the new Basic Black Archival ink and coloured using Stampin' Write Markers, sponging the sky with a dauber and Soft Sky ink.  I layered the panel on a mat of Pumpkin Pie card stock and then adhered it to a Kraft card base.  I added a scrap of Burlap trim and some gold metallic thread, as well as one of the Into the Woods Elements...I love that cute li'l acorn!  The sentiment is stamped in Basic Black and punched with the Washi Label punch.

On the inside I stamped the fall scene image again and coloured it as I did on the front.
