Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I have the next few days off from work, so I’m doing a happy dance. Plans are to get my daughter’s room painted today and tomorrow, then Tuesday put everything back in place. We’ll see what happens.

I have a clean and simple card for you today doing the Double Time Technique. All I used was Stamps, Ink and Paper, just the basics. Here’s my card for today.

I lightly adhered a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock to a Very Vanilla card base making sure it was centered. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cajun Craze Ink in the center of the panel.

I first stamped all the outlines of the leaves from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and Shaded Spruce Inks randomly around the panel. I stamped all the fill images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in the leaves, all stamped off once, in Bumblebee, Just Jade and Real Red Inks. I stamped the wheat image from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink.

I carefully removed the Very Vanilla panel and adhered it to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted panel, making sure to line up all the leaves and stems, to the Very Vanilla card base using Stampin’ Seal.

On the inside is stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink in the center of a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the outline leave images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and Shaded Spruce Inks. I stamped the leaf fill images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set, all stamped off once, in Bumblebee, Just Jade and Real Red Inks. I stamped the wheat image from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Very Vanilla card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope. I stamped the outline leaf images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie and Shaded Spruce Inks on the envelope front and flap. I stamped the leaf fill images from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set, all stamped off once, in Bumblebee, Just Jade and Real Red Inks. I stamped the wheat image from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
