Time to Be Grateful

Hello and Welcome! Here today with a card for Thanksgiving using Stamp Simply's Fall and Winter Seasonal Wreath stamp and die sets. So fun to play with as Stamp Simply has two stamp and die sets that cover all four seasons-- Fall and Winter Seasonal Wreaths and Spring and Summer Seasonal Wreaths. Both stamp sets have matching die sets that are sold separately.

I began by stamping the images with Memento Rich Cocoa ink and coloring with Copic Sketch markers. The wreath was die cut with a circle die and the pumpkins were die cut with the Fall and Winter Seasonal Wreath die. 

The sentiment from the Fall and Winter stamp set was stamped with Versafine Clair Acorn ink, then die cut with a Stamp Simply Fishtail Sentiment banner die.

Autumn Wreath

 


Hello! The Autumn colors have been wonderful but are almost finished in our area. I wanted to keep it going with this pretty wreath die set from Simon Says Stamp Fall Wreath Wafer Dies.  



I began by spritzing watercolor paper with Ranger Distress Ink spray and Distress Oxide Ink sprays in warm colors. After the page dried, I die cut the wreath shapes out...there are two dies to make the entire circle. I die cut each shape twice. Love the clean cut and embossed areas on the leaves...the die does all of the work for you!



The background of the card is a panel embossed with Stampin' Up's Damask Designs Embossing Folder.  The pretty "Blessings" sentiment is from Stamp Simply's Fall and Winter Seasonal Wreaths, cut with one of their Fishtail Sentiment Banner dies.

Once the ink spray sheet dries, this card is very quick to put together.

Enjoy the fabulous colors of Fall and see you on Friday!

Thanks for stopping by!

Pumpkin Patch

 


Welcome to the pumpkin patch! Here today with a fun pumpkin card featuring stamps and dies from Stamp Simply.

I began by stamping the pumpkin from Stamp Simply's Welcome Fall stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink (similar here) onto creamy cardstock.

After coloring it with Copic Sketch markers, I die cut it with the Stamp Simply Welcome Fall Pumpkin die.


I then stamped the background seed packet image onto some pretty pale orange gingham decorator paper using Stamp Simply's Vintage Seed Packet stamp set. Simple, but fun!

A trio of enamel dots from my stash finish this quick card.

Hey Pumpkin!

 

Welcome! Here today with a fun Stamp Simply card using their Boho Pumpkin stamp and die sets. I always love to paper piece images, and this one was done so using three different prints of retired decorator paper. 

Simply stamp the main image onto a piece of creamy cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink (similar) for the base; color the leaves and stems that are not going to be paper pieced with Copic Sketch markers. Go ahead and die cut the image at the point.  

Stamp the image onto three different pieces of decorator paper, then fussy cut the different pumpkins out. Glue them into place on the base image.

A Flat Oval Stitched die adds interest in the background that is layered with another piece of the retired designer paper.




The sentiment is made up of words from the Boho Pumpkins set, stamped then die cut with a Stamp Simply Fishtail Banner Sentiment die. A corduroy button with piece of May Art's Burlap String adds the final touch.


A fun card and simple to make!

Autumn




Happy Friday! Loving the changing of the leaves and cooler temperatures...Autumn is HERE!

My card today features stamps, dies, and products from Stamp Simply. The leafy oak leaf image is from their Give Thanks stamp and die sets, along with the "Autumn" die from the Boho Pumpkins die set.



I began by stenciling a background panel on rusty cardstock. I used Tim Holtz Layering Stencil in Tiles, stenciling it it Versamark Watermark ink. A chocolate brown panel and touches of cream make up the remainder of the background panel.

The oak leaf from the Give Thanks stamp set was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink (similar), then colored with Copic Sketch markers. It was then die cut with the Give Thanks die.

The "Autumn" sentiment die is from the Boho Leaves die set, cut with the chocolate cardstock in three layers and glued together for added dimension.

I hope that you have a wonderful Fall weekend and have a chance to be outdoors. Thanks for stopping by!
