Who is ready for day two of the Imagine Crafts & Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps Hop?? I know I am super excited to share a really fun and easy technique with you, using some amazing products from Imagine Crafts and fantastic stamps from Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps. I mean really, the detail on these stamps is AMAZING!! And the Versafine Clair Ink is perfect to bring out all of those super fine lines! Watch the video tutorial down below to see all the details on this easy technique.
I started by cutting an A2 sized kraft panel and creating an A2 side folding card base. I will be stamping with my MISTI to make this technique work. On the kraft panel I would stamp an image with the Versafine Clair ink and then switch out the panel for the card base and stamp the same image in the exact same spot with Versamark Ink. Then I heat embossed the stamped image on the card base with gold embossing powder. I repeated this several times, until both the card base and panel were covered with the leaf images.
I cut down the kraft panel by taking a 1/2″ off of each of the longer sides, this way when I adhered it over the card base the cut images would line up perfectly and the I would have some images that were both heat embossed and stamped with a colored ink! I added a bit of shimmer to the kraft panel, a sentiment to the front, and a few enamel accents then moved on to the inside of the card!
The inside was super quick and easy, but be sure to watch the video above to see how I fixed a mistake I made on the inside! All I did was bring in a thinking of you sentiment, which I stamped with the Fallen Leaves Versafine Clair ink. Then I used the Chianti and Twilight inks to stamp a few of the leaves as well!
Be sure to continue hopping today! Here’s the full list!! Be sure to head both the Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps Blog as well as the Imagine Crafts Blog for all the details on the prizes!!
Above is a super simplified run down. Be sure to watch the full video tutorial for so many tips and tricks to make this technique work! And if you are interested in any of the supplies I used on my card today, you can find them all linked down below! Until next time, Happy Crafting!!

Beautiful card. I love that technique, it looks awesome. Btw, in the word Chianti, the Ch sounds like a K. Remember in Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal Lecter said he ate a man’s liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti…lol. A little Halloween trivia to brighten your day!

What a beautiful card! Love how you also stamped inside the card. I believe stamping inside brings the card up a few notches. So many time people forget about the inside.
