Card Club Project – Fences!
I absolutely LOVE the new stamp Hardwood. It's just da bomb!! Can be used in SO many ways. We made these "fence" cards for one of our club projects for April. I saw the idea on Patty Bennett's blog and just had to share with my club members.

To make this card, I stamped the Hardwood Background stamp twice on Crumb Cake. I then cut the "boards" apart. With one you will have six boards which will fit vertical. Then I cut two more off the 2nd piece of Crumb Cake and used them for the horizontal pieces. I sponged them first and then spread them out on the card base to line them up – then applied them.
Here's another fence card – I didn't cut it apart, but instead stamped with Early Espresso ink on Early Espresso card stock and then used the Triangle punch to punch out the top! Neat, eh?
