Hello friends! Welcome another fun blog hop, this time the My Sweet Petunia and Right at Home Design Team are teaming up to share with you amazing creation using products from both companies! 
And we also have amazing giveaways, we will draw 2 lucky winners from all the comments from the hop, so please leave a comment on every blog to be eligible win one of two prizes: Winner's choice of an original or mini MISTI, and a prize package from Right at Home (Sunflower stamp set, Harvest Blessings stamp set (new release) and two Distress Oxide Inks: Cracked Pistachio and Peeled Paint).

Deadline for comments is September 8th at noon Central, and winners will be posted on the My Sweet Petunia and  Right at Home blogs on Tuesday September 12th

If you arrive here from Maria's blog, you are in the right place, if not start at Nicole's, so you don't miss out any of the participant blog.

I have two projects for you today, I even took pictures of the process from this card (click on the pictures fro a larger version), so let's get started.
Background piece:
  • Start stamping the leaves from "Fall Leaves" set on a piece of watercolor paper, ink them up with Memento Rich Cocoa for the outlines and then the solid images with Wild Honey Distress Ink and Memento Tangelo.For the small outlines use Memento Love Letters, Memento Pistachio, Memento Dandelion.
Embossed Leaves
  • Stamp the outline leaves on a piece of watercolor paper. Apply white embossing powder and heat set.
  • After that, add little bits of Color Burst (Sepia, Yellow Ochre, Terra Verte, Tangerine), mist water. Let it air dry or speed the process with a heat gun. Cut them out or die-cut. 
  •  After that, cover all the leaves with Versamark Watermark and Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel, this will give your leaves a shiny and kinda frosty look (If you don't have UTEE, you can use clear embossing powder for a similar look)
  • Finally, stamp the sentiment from Script Greetings set on a piece of clear vellum  in Vintage Mahogany Embossing powder (Recollections), then add stitches. Adhere the card panel to a 5.5" x 5.5" white card base. Add the embossed leaves to the side. Embellish with silver thread.

This is the final card.

This second card was a lot easier and faster to make. I usually don't make OLC, but these images were calling for one {wink, wink}
Here I stamped the images ink Memento Love Letter, Memento Angel Pink, Memento Pistachio, Memento Bamboo Leaves, Memento Tangelo, Memento Dandelion, Memento Gray Flannel, Memento  Rich Cocoa, SU Coastal Cabana and Delizata Golden Glitz. Sentiment was stamped in Jet Black ink and finally added clear and blue rhinestones.



Here is the list of all the participants:
