Gathered Wheat & More

With the cooler mornings and the hay rolls dotting the fields I think of the fall harvest. So today I’m sharing some lovely cards with you made with sets from our Mini Catalog for the fall. My first swap card that I’m sharing with you uses the Gathered Wheat stamp set (159841) from page 51 of the Mini.

This stamp set not only has a coordinating die set (159842) it also contains some wonderful sentiments that can be used for different occasions.

These next two cards use the Hello Harvest Bundle (159644) from page 50 of the Mini. This first card is a fun easel fold and uses Stampin’ Blends to add color to the images.

And this next fun fold card teams up the die with the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder (159847) and Stitched Greenery Die (155451). Don’t you love how all our products work together?

The beautiful gold foil pumpkin has an embossed design that is built into the die and it picks up the foiling from the Festive Foils Specialty (159536) paper. Beautiful, right? And this final card is another fun fold.

This card uses the Good Feelings stamp set (158737) and the Celebrate Everything Designer Series Paper (Host 159913)

So simple, but a bright and cheerful thank you card.

Feeling a bit more like fall? Well ready or not here it comes, this year fall equinox falls on Thursday the 22nd.

Hello Harvest & Back Stage Swapping Fun!

Today’s cards are all swaps that I received during the New Orleans Back Stage event last month. What fun I had swapping during the event. I cant wait to share them with you this week, so stop back by to see more fun swaps!

This first group of cards is made with the Hello Harvest Bundle (159644) and the Rustic Harvest Suite (159648) of products. The colors are rich and will be found in our landscape over the next few weeks as the days shorten. The yellows have already started popping up here in North Georgia.

And if you haven’t already seen the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder (159847) you’ll want to be sure to check it out. I almost missed it in the Mini (page 53).

It’s been used to add texture to these first three cards.

And this next card is made with the Soft Seedlings stamp set (159905).

It’s got a fun soft look to it – water drops have been added after the leaves have been stamped using our Water Painter (151298). And this final fall card uses the die cut image from the Perched in a Tree Bundle (159799). While it is currently on back order it will be available to order again around the 26th of September, in plenty of time to start creating for the holiday season!

How about a little Halloween fun? Here are two cards made with the Best Witches (159860) and Bewitching stamp sets (159855).

The Witch Hat Builder Punch (159856) is so much fun.

Stop back by again tomorrow when I’ll be sharing more fun swaps with you!

Gingham fun with Cottage Wreaths

Gingham, flannel, and fall. Is there a more cozy combo as the weather cools and the colors change? Well if you like gingham too, you’ll enjoy the Gingham Cottage Suite of products (159663).

This suite is filled with welcoming wreaths and wonderful images that will work not only for fall but winter too! Check out these lovely cards made using the Cottage Wreaths Bundle (159659) along with autumn colors and images.

This first card uses simple stamping to create the wreath using Crushed Curry and Pumpkin Pie Classic Inks and then adds layers of die cut pieces to add texture. The stitched edge and Elegant Faceted Gems (152464) adds a bit more interest to this project. And this next card uses the die cut wreath.

The bolder gingham pattern sets the color pallet and the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder (149643) adds a bit of texture to the back ground.

Hello Harvest!

Today’s cards all use the Hello Harvest Bundle (159644) from our Mini Catalog. This bundle is part of the Rustic Harvest Suite Collection (159648) and contains all kinds of wonderful choices for your fall crafting needs.

The sentiments are not just for fall, but are all occasions sentiments that can be used for all kinds of things, which makes it a great value too.

Ready to see those cards? I’ll start with this first one that uses the lovely leaf from the Leaf Label & Amber Gem Combo Pack (159969).

Stampin’ Blends were used to color the flowers and a bit of Natural Woven Ribbon (159611) adds some texture to the project. This next card uses those lovely Amber Gems (159969) along with dry embossing done with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder (158804).

Can you see the embossed detail that is on the stem of the pumpkin? I love the fact that the Rustic Pumpkin Dies (159643) also have dies that cut and emboss as the same time like this. And finally the last card today has a big bold feel with the Stampin’ Blends pumpkin and choice of background pattern.

Don’t you love all these patterns from the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper (159633)?

Soft Seedlings

The evenings are getting cooler and it won’t be long before the days are noticeably shorter, fall is right around the corner. While I’ll miss the pace summer and it’s warm sunny days I always enjoy, today’s project is inspired by those fall colors we’ll be seeing soon.

The Soft Seedlings stamp set (159905) from our Mini Catalog was used to create this lovely card.

This set with it’s lovely font and sentiments is perfect for techniques with its Distinktive images.

For this card a bit of color has been added to the stem with an Early Espresso Stampin’ Write Marker and then Cajun Craze has been added to the leaves and seeds using a Sponge Dauber. After that another Sponge Dauber added a bit of Early Espresso to the tips for a bit more color giving it an Autumn feel. Our Layering Diorama Dies (155565) were used to layer the image and the Stylish Shapes Dies (159183) with their fun stitched edges were used to pop up the sentiment. Interest was added to the background layer with the seeding images and a bit more sponging to add a bit of interest.

So what do you think? Do the colors used for this card evoke the feel of fall to you?

Lots of Leaves

Today’s post will be a quick one I’ve got a full day that will end with getting to watch my daughter’s band doing their Journey show at an exhibition. So without further ado….

Today’s card highlights the lovely Lots of Leaves stamp set. This set is one I couldn’t resist with the large bold images and coordinating dies.

Originally I thought this would be a great for making masculine cards and then I looked at the sentiments closer. The sentiments are lovely don’t you think? Something for every occasion, making this set a year round one simply by changing up the colors.

The images as you can see have a wonderful shading to them adding depth and texture. And the dies are great since you can use them in to create positive image projects like this or use the left over negative image to create even more projects. And you’re going to love the stitching on the outside of the negative images!
