Start off with a Bermuda Bay card base (5 1/2 x 8 1/2, scored at 4 1/4). Layer a 5 1/4 x 4 piece of Early Espresso and then add a 5 x 3 3/4 piece of Wood Textures Designer Series Paper.
Stamp the Sentiment (from Perennial Birthday) in Bermuda Bay and the Rooster in Memento Black Ink. Then color using Stampinâ Blends (Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie) The hill was colored with Light Crumb Cake.
I wanted to stamp the grasses around the rooster without getting it on the rooster so I used the Masking Technique. To do this, stamp the image on a Post-It Note and cut around it. I cut close just at the bottom but didnât do much with the top because I wasnât going to stamp to high over the rooster. Adhere the Post-It Note over the stamped rooster.
Stamp the grasses with Crumb Cake Ink. I stamped direct and then without re-inking stamped again to get different shades. Lift off the Post-It Note and you will see the rooster is clean, it was protected from the ink.
I wanted to add some gems to the card so I colored 3 Rhinestone Basic Jewels with the Bronze Stampinâ Blends Marker. These were added to the top left corner.
