Stampin Up Pals paper arts color Challenge #263

Yup, another card using this awesome stamp. You'd think there wasn't any other stamp in the set, but there are. The leaves you see stamped under the large one are in the set and there are some sentiments and a couple more sizes and shapes of leaves.

The corners are done using a new corner punch, it has three sides, this is one.  I stamped on vellum using the new Archival Basic black SU ink from the new Holiday catalog. Ordering from that starts on Sept 1.

On the back side I sponged my colors, because I put it over a busy background I also cut the leaf out of Whisper White and put them together.  I used glue dots, often they can be used so they don't show on the vellum.

Here are this weeks colors:

Love, love, love this color combo.  Come on over and play.

Stampin Up PP color challenge #257, Sneak Peek for 2015 Holiday Catalog

Ok so I might, just might have gotten a wee bit too grungy with this, think? It just looked to "clean" before However, you can see the beauty of theses leaves. New for fall in the Holiday catty. I had to have this set right off the bat!   Strangely enough, I am not a fall or leaf kinda person, but these had that gorgeous stained glass look and spoke to me.  I'm sure you will be seeing them a lot.

I used the new SU Archival Black ink.  TIP: Be sure you have Staz On cleaner before you use this or the new Archival Basic Gray ink, then rub a good amount on the stamp to clean, do not use water until you are fairly sure it's completely clean, then rinse.  It may still stain a little. But honestly it doesn't look bad and of course will not come off on other projects you use the stamp on.

After stamping and using the die for this leaf, I just sponged on the colors for the challenge.
I also sponged the Boho embossed piece just a little bit. Here is the colors for the challenge.

And go here to play.
