For this one-layer card I used stamps from the beautiful autumn-themed stamp sheet that comes with the current issue of Creative Stamping. First I stamped a sentiment from the sheet, then (using faint pencil guidelines which I later erased because I'm a wimp) I stamped the four background squares by inking up my smallest square acrylic block with distress inks, spritzing it very lightly with water and stamping it down onto the card. I chose a berry silhouette stamp from the set and stamped it at a different angle on each square, then used a white gel pen to brighten the highlights on each berry.

Lovely! I always like colour on silhouettes on a card, Jo x
Ah this is super, what a great card, Hazelxx
Really lovely Jane!
I would have never guessed those squares were done with acrylic block stamping. Terrific job, Jane! And clever — not wimpy — to draw in guidelines with a pencil. Great colours and finishing touch with the white pen highlights. Thank you for joining us at Less is More. x
What an amazing card - I love the clean lines and absolute striking simplicity of this - it really is just gorgeous.
