Stampendous/Dreamweaver Thursday - All-In-Ones

All-in-Ones are clever stamps designed by Fran Seiford, Stampendous' Owner and Founder.  These stamps have a focal image, a background, a frame, and a phrase for the holidays all in one stamp!  The creative possibilities are limitless.  So now you get what all-in-ones are!

Here's my fun, fall themed card today:

I adore this Pumpkin Kisses image and it fits right in with my love of fall.  The mosaic swirl background was pasted a few weeks ago with the intention of using it here today.  I really like Dreamweaver's Orange Paste as it's more of a rust color.  I also combined Dreamweaver Metallic Copper Paste in between the orange paste on my paste spreader just to see what would happen when I pulled it down over the stencil.  

In order to show you the copper and orange paste result, the pumpkin image was full of glare, but it's worth it to see how cool this looks.  I'm sure I can play some more with combining the pastes and getting even more copper highlights.

Here's a close up of the image that is basically paper pieced after everything was colored, cut out and edged with Vintage Sepia and a finger dauber.  The panel behind the image was a handy dandy piece from my Dreamweaver scrap drawer!  It's so fun to create seasonal backgrounds and then they're ready whenever you need it.  The image was stamped with Versafine Toffee on watercolor paper and stamped a second time with Versafine Vintage Sepia on the background paper.  I used my new favorite Zig Clean Brush markers to color the stamped areas.  Every piece was fussy cut out.  The scarecrow has foam tape behind it and then the acetate frame is glued to the bottom of the scarecrow.  Narrow little strips of foam mounting tape were cut and laid along the remaining edge of the frame.  The bird body was cut out and foam taped onto the background.  Pumpkin Kisses was adhered flat onto the background.

The frame was then ready to mount onto the stenciled background.  Ribbon was wrapped around the stenciled panel and tied in a double bow.  The framed pumpkin was affixed to the stenciled panel with Beacon 3-1 glue.  A piece of Core'dinations was cut 5-1/2 x 4-1/4 and sanded and edge distressed to reveal the orange core and then was mounted to the stenciled panel.  Buttons were affixed with Glue Dots for added interest.
