The Greetery-Hint of Autumn Collection Reveal Day 2

Hi there! Today I’m back with The Greetery to help introduce more of the new Hint of Autumn Collection.

My first card features the Wild Wetlands die set. This is a showstopper! I used all solid colored cardstock and added some blending in like colors to add dimension. I adhered the wetlands cluster on a scalloped Rustic Cream mat using the Capsule Basics die set and adhered it to a Stardust base.

My next card showcases the Mushroom Meadow foil & stencil set. First I used the Mushroom Meadow foil plate with gold foil and then added color using the Mushroom Meadow stencil set. For the sentiment I used the Scripted Sentiments stamp & die.

Here is a video showing how I created this card.

My last card features the Autumn Herbarium stamp, stencil, die & embossing folder. First I stamped the leaves, then I blended the color. I die cut the leaves and then added them to the embossing folder for incredible texture. I added mats using the Capsule Basics die set and sentiments from the Thankful & Blessed set.

The Greetery-Hint of Autumn Collection Reveal Day 1

Hi there! Today I’m joining The Greetery to help introduce the new Hint of Autumn Collection.

My first card features the Thankful & Blessed Stamp + Stencil & Die set. I added the oval windows and panels using the Capsule Basics die set. Here I used Stardust, Cayenne, Dragonfruit and Latte ink onto a Rustic Cream cardstock for a colorful, fall color combination.

This next card will also have a video soon and is featuring the Capsule Cameos: Autumn stamp set. Here I did some fun inking and blending using Cayenne, Stardust, Eucalyptus, Rainforest & Lemongrass ink. Again, I created the window on a Cayenne panel using the Capsule Basics die set.

Rose Branch Thank You

Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project featuring the Rose Branch die, Nuvelli Script Thank You die and the A2 Arches die set.

SSS-Rose Branch, Nuvelli Script Thank You

I die cut the Rose Branch out of vellum and the Nuvelli Script Thank You out of Matte Gold. For the background I blended Limelicious, Seafoam and Cadette ink and framed everything using one of the A2 Arches dies.

SSS-Rose Branch, Nuvelli Script Thank You

I trimmed the Rose Branch die cut to tuck only two leaves at the bottom and three at the top to fit the frame and allow room for the sentiment.

There’s a brand new Happy Camper release coming tonight at Simon Says Stamp so stay tuned.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Thanks Always

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a card using the Thanks Always stamp, stencil and die set.

SSS-Thanks Always

To begin I stamped the large image using Latte ink. I just wanted to do something faint and wouldn’t rist smearing while blending the colors on each letter. Using the coordinating stencil, I blended color to each letter using Apple, Grapefruit, Sunbeam, Surf and Lilac. I used Copic markers to color the smaller foliage and critters and then die cut the whole thing using the coordinating die set.

SSS-Thanks Always

I added an embossed sentiment using the Thanks Always stamp set. Thank YOU for always stopping by & making me smile😊.

Ribbon Quilt

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a colorful card featuring the Ribbon Quilt die set. This die set turned out to be an unexpected favorite! It was a lot of die cutting and glueing but worth it to me. The Pawsitively Perfect Craft Glue has also been an unexpected favorite. It has been working like a charm ever since I opened it, and let me tell you, I am easily frustrated with adhesives. I consider myself to be and adhesive connoisseur:) This a good one!

SSS-Ribbon Quilt, CZ Hello

I love how you can fit so many colors on one card(this is my jam). There are a million different designs you could make with this die set and I love that. For the sentiment I used and oldie but a goodie, the CZ Hello die with vellum and matte gold.

SSS-Ribbon Quilt, CZ Hello

Summer is flying by and it has been hard to find time to craft while sharing my craft room with my son, who is visiting us from Germany. He is leaving soon and I’ll have the craft room all to myself, but then I’ll be sad that he is gone. All good problems to have I guess. Hope everyone is hanging in there and sending you all rainbow hugs and french fry wishes:) Thanks so much for stopping by!
