I have a super simple, quick card to share with you today. It takes very little time to make, yet, I think the effect really makes it pop.
I used the wheat image from the Autumn Blessings set. Let me tell you, if you haven't snatched up this set yet, you're missing out. It has to be one of my favorites, for three reasons: 1. It's charming and rustic (right up my alley) 2. It's so versatile. It has detailed and simple images. There are no limits. 3. It has Fall images...hello...that is the absolute best season ever!! okay.... 4. There's a milk can in it. I am married to a dairy farmer after all. ;)
Anyway, all I did to make this card, was stamp the wheat, with Versamark, onto Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock, and embossed it with Clear EP. I then inked up the whole panel with 3 different Ranger Distress Inks: Wild Honey (the whole panel), Vintage Photo (Up to and covering a little of the wheat), and Walnut Stain (Just around the edges). I then matted my main panel with Espresso Truffle from the Color Made Easy ~ Rich Browns set. Lastly I inked up the sentiment using Rich Cocoa and Tuxedo Black Memento inks. Easy Peasy. I thought the sentiment fit perfectly with the plain wheat image.
