I used the Heartland and All Wired Up stamp sets, along with the Layering Ovals Dies, to create this “just a note” card. Silver embossing powder gives dimension to the chicken wire. And silver Metallic Pearls look like metal studs or nail heads. This tiny bit of silver “bling” balances the muted tones of this rural themed card.

Here’s what I did:
Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:
- Pear Pizzazz card stock (CS) cut to 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, then scored in half at 4-1/4″
- Crumb Cake CS layer cut to 5″ x 3-3/4″
- Pear Pizzazz CS strip cut to 4″ x 3/4″
- Very Vanilla CS cut to 5-1/4″ x 4″ for the inside of the card base
- scrap of CS (can be any color) cut to 4″ x 2-3/4″, for masking
Stamped with the All Wired Up background stamp:
- first in Versamark ink onto the front of the card base, then heat embossed in silver
- second in Versamark ink onto the Crumb Cake CS layer, then heat embossed in silver
- third in black Stazon ink onto the Very Vanilla CS for the inside of the card base, after laying the 4″ x 2-3/4″ CS scrap on the center to mask it (discarded the CS scrap after stamping)
Stamped with the Heartland stamp set:
- tractor scene in black Stazon ink onto a scrap of Very Vanilla CS
- sentiment in black Stazon ink onto the right end of the Pear Pizzazz CS strip
Cut using the Layering Ovals Dies:
- tractor scene
Colored using Stampin’ Blends Markers:
- truck in Dark Real Red
- tires in Dark Smoky Slate
- ground in Light Crumb Cake, and shadows in Dark Crumb Cake
- sky in Light Balmy Blue
- dog in Dark Daffodil Delight, then went over it in Light Crumb Cake to tone down the yellow
Assembled the card:
- burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
- Crumb Cake CS layer glued onto the front of the card base
- 2 pieces of overlapping Burlap Ribbon adhered onto the Crumb Cake CS layer using Tear & Tape
