The multi-colored grains were created using the felt pad technique. If you don't remember it or don't have time to check it out on my Techniques page, you put a bit of several colors of reinkers onto a felt piece (make sure you have wax paper underneath) and use it as a stamp pad. With this particular use, make use your ink areas are touching each other so you get a good stamping. We also double stamped so we got some grains lighter than others.
Here's what you will need to duplicate this card:
Stamps: Wetlands
Inks: Early Espresso, Crumb Cake (reinker), Pumpkin Pie (reinker), Sahara Sand (reinker)
Paper: Early Espresso, Soft Suede, Very Vanilla
Other: Antique Brads, 3/8" Soft Suede Taffeta ribbon
Forever Stampin',

Love this card. Thank you for sharing. I am making it right at this moment. I had a very good friend pass away yesterday and I am making this for her husband. A great male card.
