Field Journal For Thanksgiving

September 10, 2020 Filed Under: Gallery, Project Gallery

 

For this card, I didn’t pick the typical Thanksgiving stamp set. But the Field Journal Stamp set has so many images that will work well for Thanksgiving and Harvest cards. For me, Chipmunks remind me fall is here. Right now they are busy scurrying around eating as much as they can to get ready to hibernate for winter. This is the time of year I see them the most active and it is a sure sign fall is on the way!

The sentiment stamp is from the Gather Together Stamp set and all the others are from Field Journal. The images were all colored in using Stampin’ Blends. The beautiful background paper is believe it not, from the Halloween “Magic In This Night” DSP set.

Stampin’ Up! has made a lot of the DSP sets more versatile by giving you choices you can use for holidays beyond the one they were designed for. This design was perfect for a Thanksgiving card. With so many choices, holiday card making is easy!

Arrange A Wreath For Harvest Holidays

September 8, 2020 Filed Under: Gallery, Project Gallery

If you are looking for a versatile stamp set to buy now, look no further than Arrange A Wreath. From Thanksgiving to Christmas to Valentines Day and on to Eater plus more, Arrange A Wreath will be perfect for quick card making.

I wanted a simple card that would be easy to make multiples of for Thanksgiving card sending, so the combination of the wreath die cuts on a plaid background was perfect. I anchored the two die cut wreath styles with a bit of ribbon tied with linen thread. This gave the impression of a wreath on the wall.

The sentiment fit perfectly into a die from the Ornate Frames die set. I added the sentiment off to the side, much like you would see on a wreath. Then, I added a few enamel dots for berries. That was it and I was done!

Beautiful Autumn For The Season

August 26, 2020 Filed Under: Gallery, Project Gallery

 

Beautiful Autumn is beautifully simple stamp set. So, I decided to make a card and keep it simple but elegant. And, very much like its name, you can create simply wonderful designs using Beautiful Autumn. For this card, I used a speckled  and a stripe paper from the Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper Pack. The rustic look and the simplicity of these patterns are completely different from the reverse side of these papers, which feature beautiful copper and gold foil designs. Don’t you love it when you get such a versatile DSP set?

For my first ever card using Beautiful Autumn, I wanted to keep the design simple and let the gorgeous, large sentiment do most of the design work. The speckled background of the paper gave my simple stamping an artsy look and just a touch of ribbon, linen thread and a copper acorn embellishment finished off the card nicely.

For easy fall crafting using simple stamping techniques, look no further than the Gilded Autumn Suite. With the beautiful papers, the darling Autumn Punch pack and the rich ribbons and embellishments, fall crafting, decorating and gif giving will be a snap!  Look at all you can make using the product from this suite!
