Photograph

I like the faux vintage photo technique. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Guy Greetings

Paper:

   Pecan Pie A-2

   Basic Black 5-3/8 x 4-1/8, 2-5/8 x 3-5/8

   Going Places DSP 5-1/4 x 4

   Glossy White 2-1/2 x 3-1/2

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Pecan Pie

   Crumb Cake

   Cinnamon Cider

   Jet Black StazOn

Technique:

   Faux Vintage Photos

   Antique Corners & Sliders

   Masking Paper

   Sponge

   Tissue

   Glue Dots

   Adhesive

First, I masked about 1/4" on all four sides of a glossy white panel, using Masking Paper. This created the border around the photograph.

I then stamped my image, using Jet Black StazOn ink. Allowed the ink to dry. 

Next, I sponged on shades of browns. I used Crumb Cake, Cinnamon Cider, and Pecan Pie. 

Let the panel dry completely.

I then wiped the panel with a bit of tissue to pick up any ink before it smudged. 

Next, I carefully removed the masking paper. I left the border as is, but you can deckle the edges, tear it, or add a few spots. I added some photo corners from my stash, using a glue dot for each one.

I then adhered it to a Basic Black matte.

I adhered the Going Places DSP panel onto a Basic Black matte, and then onto a Pecan Pie card front.

Next, I added the vintage photo panel onto the top half of the card front. I used liquid adhesive, but you can also use dimensionals or your favorite adhesive.

I then stamped the sentiment on the lower half of the card front. I stamped directly onto the DSP, but you can also choose to add a tag or decorative die cut. I did not want to draw the attention away from the photograph.

Lastly, I added a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

I began with the 3-1/4 x 3-3/4" Whisper White panel. Using my markers, I colored the "E" clear block: Pineapple Punch, Highland Heather, and Granny Apple Green.

I sprayed the block and my white panel with water.

I stamped the panel with the clear block. I held it in place for a bit while the ink transferred to the panel.

I then set it aside to dry.

Next, I dry embossed the Granny Apple Green panel using the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.

I adhered some Jute Ribbon to the bottom of the panel. I did wrap it to the back and adhered it. Next time, I will just cut a strip for the front: 4".

I then grabbed the 1/2 x 2 1/2 inch strip and punched the left side of the tag using the banners pick a punch. 

I then stamped my sentiment, and finished the tag by punching the right side of the tag. 

I adhered this panel onto the card front.

I then stamped on my dry watercolor panel, using the trees from the Campology stamp set and my Mossy Meadow ink. This is a great group of trees. I adhered this panel onto the Pineapple Punch panel.

This was then added to the upper part of the Granny Apple Green embossed panel.

Lastly, I added the photo corners with glue dots, and the Whisper White panel to the inside of the card.
