Well Defined

The Well Defined stamp set is a bit different than or regular fare, it’s a sentiment set that is set up in a dictionary style look. This set includes all kinds of words for the fall and winter along with a nice to and from making it a great choice for tags also.

Check out this soft and lovely card made using the gratitude greeting from the set.

It’s got a soft and lovely feel to it and since it is using the Soft Succulent pattern from the Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper. The paper has a delicate font in the background talking about the things in nature, fall, and harvest to continue the theme.

Monochromatic cards like this are a lot of fun and can be very creative too. I think you’ll love the soft look of layering the and the Vellum card stock has been dry embossed with the Thanks folder from the set of 2 embossing folders. Not only does it add texture and interest it pairs up well with the sentiment that is highlight by the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. Don’t you love the way our products coordinate?

Welcoming Woods

This time of year the outdoors are calling and hiking, camping and spending the day in our North Georgia Mountains becomes extremely popular as the highways heading north are filled with campers, leaf watchers, and those seeking the peace and quiet of a day with nature. The Welcoming Woods stamp set (156550) evokes those kinds of images in my mind and since this set has all occasions sentients and year round options I think you’ll find this set a great one to team up with sets you might already have.

Check out this first card for fall and it’s striking colors.

A Blending Brush (153611) or Sponge Daubers (133773) were used to add color to this lovely image. A easy technique that packs a wallop! And this next card uses the set as a back drop for the Nature’s Beauty (150528) wildlife.

Embossed in White Embossing Powder (155554) it uses the snowflake pattern from the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper (155718) to set the winter scene.
