Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Cabin Seasonal Wreath for The Card Concepts

Posted on by
6

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already and on our way to the weekend. I hope you are starting to make some plans.

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo is Peace On Earth.  Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Cabin ClingStamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season Bundle for my Clean and Simple card. I was inspired by the gorgeous wreath in the photo.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our Challenge #165. How are you inspired by this photo?

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Peaceful Cabin stamp set in Versamark Ink on the bottom of an In Good Taste Designer Series Paper card front. I immediately sprinkled it with my Gold Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered the card front to a Basic White Thick card base.

Using my Seasonal Swirls Dies, I cut 2 of the wreaths out, 1 in Evening Evergreen and 1 in Soft Succulent. On a panel of Crumb Cake cardstock I stamped the small pinecone image from the Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season Photopolymer Stamp Set in Crumb Cake Ink multiple times. I cut the images out using my Seasonal Swirls Dies. I cut 3 sets of holly from a panel of Gold & Rose Gold Metallic Paper and multiple berries from a scrap of Real Red cardstock. I adhered the pinecones, holly and berries to the wreaths using Glue Dots and Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the wreath to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I tied a bow using the Real Red 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon and adhered it to the top of the wreath using a Glue Dot leaving long tails. I twisted the tails of the bow and tacked them in a couple places using Glue Dots. I added a few Wonderful Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Evergreen Elegance Cling Stamp Set in Crumb Cake Ink. I stamped the pine boughs image from the Evergreen Elegance stamp set above and below the sentiment in Evening Evergreen Ink. I adhered the pinecones and holly & berries I had cut to the boughs. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Real Red mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope. I stamped the pine boughs image from the Evergreen Elegance stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink above and below where I’d be writing the address on the envelope front and on the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals for The Card Concepts.

Posted on by

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already and on our way to the weekend. I hope you are starting to make some plans.

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo is Rustic Holiday.  Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Petals Photopolymer Stamp Set for my Mixed Media card. I was inspired by the Poinsettias in the photo along with the colors.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our Challenge #164. How are you inspired by this photo?

I started by embossing a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered a panel of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper to the panel and then adhered the layered panel to a Thick Very Vanilla card base.

On a panel on Cherry Cobbler cardstock I stamped the poinsettia images from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set in Versamark Ink. I stamped 1 large, 1 medium and 2 small. I immediately sprinkled them with my Gold Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the images out using my Poinsettia Dies. On a panel of Garden Green cardstock I cut 2 of the largest poinsettias dies and embossing die using my Poinsettia Dies. I adhered the large and medium flowers together using a small amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue making sure the petals alternated. I adhered the 2 small flowers together using a tiny amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue making sure the petal alternated. I adhered the layered small flowers to the large layered petals using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered 1 of the large Garden Green flowers to the back of the layered Cherry Cobbler flower using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut apart the other Garden Green flower using my Paper Snips and adhered the leaves where I thought they should go using Glue Dots. I adhered the layered flowers to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Pearl Basic Jewels in the center of the flower.

I cut a few of the sprigs dies from the Poinsettia Dies out of a panel of Gold Metallic Paper. I adhered them under the flower. On a strip of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink. I tied a small bow using the Gold Simply Elegant Trim and adhered it to the card front using a Glue Dot. I adhered the sentiment over the bow using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock. I had cut 4 of the tiny poinsettias from the Poinsettia Dies from the panel of Cherry Cobbler cardstock. I adhered them together alternating petals using Glue Dots and adhered them on either side of the sentiment using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a Pearl Basic Jewel to the center. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat and then to the inside of the Thick Very Vanilla card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the poinsettia image from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of In Good Taste DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Words of Cheer for Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Posted on by

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends! Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. I hope everyone is doing well today. If you are hopping over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Theme Challenge. I can’t wait to see what everyone has created this week. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here is my card using this weeks Theme.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Words of Cheer Bundle for my card today.

Our theme this week is ‘Christmas’.

My colors are from Colours & Sketches Challenge #444.

I started by embossing a panel of Shaded Spruce cardstock using the Wintry 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Real Red card front. I adhered the card front to a Thick Basic White card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the large floral image from the Stampin’ Up! Words of Cheer Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Real Red and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Pear Pizzazz Stampin’ Write Marker. I cut the image out using my Christmas Cheer Dies. I adhered the die cut image to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

From a panel of Basic White cardstock I cut the detailed word image using my Christmas Cheer Dies. From a panel of Real Red cardstock I cut the letters from the Christmas Cheer Dies. I adhered the letters to the detailed word die using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Words of Cheer stamp set in Real Red Ink and cut the sentiment out using my Ornate Frames Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Shaded Spruce Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front and a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the center of the flowers.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Words of Cheer stamp set in Real Red Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the large floral image from the Words of Cheer stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel and colored it in the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Real Red mat and then to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the large floral image from the Words of Cheer stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and colored it in the same as I did for the card. I embossed a panel of Shaded Spruce card stock using the Wintry 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Pumpkins in Very Vanilla for The Card Concepts

Posted on by
4

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already and on our way to the weekend. I hope you are starting to make some plans.

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo is Beautiful Bounty.  Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Pretty Pumpkins Bundle for my Freestyle Collage card. I was inspired mostly by the cream colored pumpkins along with the other colors in the photo.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our Challenge #163. How are you inspired by this photo?

I started by stamping the pumpkin trio image from the Stampin’ Up! Pretty Pumpkins Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock. I colored one of the pumpkins and the leaves using my Mint Macaron and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the leaf pumpkin image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Versamark Ink on the Very Vanilla panel and immediately sprinkled it with my White Embossing Powder. I set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the 2 pumpkin images along with the other detailed pumpkin images out using my Detailed Pumpkins Dies.

On a panel of Mint Macaron cardstock, I stamped the leafy vine image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink twice. I cut the 2 images out along with the detailed leaf dies using my Detailed Pumpkin Dies.

I arranged the pumpkins and leaves on a panel of Very Vanilla cardstock adhering them using Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and fussy cut it using my Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the top of the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Thick Very Vanilla card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the Black & White 1/4″ Gingham Ribbon and adhered it by the sentiment using a Glue Dot. I added a few Pumpkin Pie Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla detailed pumpkin to the side of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Cajun Craze mat and then to the inside of the Thick Very Vanilla card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the pumpkin trio image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and colored it the same as I did for my card. I stamped the pumpkin leafy vine image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope flap and colored them in using my Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Christmas Season Birthday Card

Posted on by
6

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. Happy Halloween!!!! Are you ready for your trick or treaters? We don’t usually get many, last year we got 5. Maybe we’ll be surprised this year and get a few more. My husband loves Halloween and decorates the outside music and all.

Today’s card is one that we made back in August during one of our Mystery Stamping meetings. My upline Jaimie designed the card and we had to pick the colors and stamp set we wanted to use. I liked this design so much I had to make it again using a different stamp set, DSP and colors. I think I may even have the ladies make this card at my next class. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Season Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Moments Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

My colors are from Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge #375.

I started by randomly stamping the images from the Christmas Season stamp set in Misty Moonlight, Rich Razzleberry and Smoky Slate Inks, stamping off once, on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I embossed the panel using my Painted Textures 3D Embossing Folder.

I cut the artwork into 1″ strips using my Paper Trimmer and adhered them to the Basic White mat, leaving a tiny space between the strips, using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Rich Razzleberry mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered a panel of Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper to a Basic White mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Misty Moonlight card base. I adhered the layered artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Rich Razzleberry cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the  Peaceful Moments stamp set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment out using my Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I colored a length of  3/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon using my Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Marker and adhered it to the top of the artwork using a tiny amount of Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the images from the Christmas Season stamp set in Misty Moonlight, Rich Razzleberry and Smoky Slate Inks, stamping off once, on the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Rich Razzleberry mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope . I stamped the images from the Christmas Season stamp set on the envelope front in Misty Moonlight, Rich Razzleberry and Smoky Slate Inks, stamping off once. I adhered a panel of the Pattern Party Host DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Joyful Life Thank You

Posted on by

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Are you ready for the last week of October, YIKES!! This month flew by.

I have a quick card for you today using another one of my favorite sets from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Joyful Life Cling Stamp Set along with the Neutrals 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My design is from Inspire. Create. Challenge # 102.

I started by adhering a panel of the Neutrals DSP to a Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using my Layering Circles Dies, I cut one of the solid circles and the coordinating scalloped circle from a panel of Basic White cardstock. On the solid circle I stamped the pig and leaf images from the Joyful Life stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink to the left of the circle. I colored the images in using my Blackberry Bliss, Bronze, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Night of Navy, Old Olive, Petal Pink, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the solid circle to the scalloped circle using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Inspired Thoughts Cling Stamp Set in Night of Navy Ink. I cut the strip into a banner using my Paper Snips. I adhered a piece of the 3/8″ Denim Ribbon to the card front. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Night of Navy Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Joyful Life stamp set on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I adhered a strip of the Neutrals DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Night of Navy mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the pig and leaf images from the Joyful Life stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of the Neutrals DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Jar of Flowers Wreath for The Card Concepts.

Posted on by
6

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We’re halfway through the week and the weekend is right around the corner.

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo is Fall Fun.  Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Jar of Flowers Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season Bundle and some new Heart & Home Designer Series Paper (coming in the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog) for my Clean & Layered card. I was inspired by the beautiful fall colors along with the sunflowers in the vase and the apples.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge #162.  How are you inspired by this photo?

I started by adhering a panel of the gorgeous new Heart & Home DSP to an Old Olive mat. I adhered the layered panel to a Cajun Craze card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sunflower image from the Jar of Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock and colored the image in using my Bumblebee and Early Espresso Stampin’ Write Markers. I fussy cut the sunflowers using my Paper Snips. Using the Festive Finishes Dies, I cut multiple apples from a panel of Cajun Craze cardstock.

I cut the leaf wreath from a panel of Old Olive cardstock using my Seasonal Swirls Dies. I cut the swirly wreath from a panel of Early Espresso cardstock using the Painted Labels Dies. I didn’t want the solid center in the swirly wreath so I used the circle that fit the best from the Layering Circles Dies and cut it out. I layered the wreaths together the way I liked and adhered them to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals where I would be putting the flowers and the apples. I made a multi loop bow from a length of Linen Thread and adhered it to the wreath. I adhered the sunflowers over the bow and the apples randomly on the wreath. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Free As A Bird Cling Stamp Set in Cajun Craze Ink and cut it into a banner using my Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment tucking it under the flowers.

On the inside I stamped the swirly wreath from the Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of The Season Photopolymer Stamp Set in Old Olive Ink, stamping off once, on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink in the center of the wreath. I randomly stamped the trio leaves image from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set in Bumblebee and Old Olive Inks and adhered a few more of the apples I had cut out from the Festive Finishes Dies. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Early Espresso mat and then to the inside of the Cajun Craze card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the trio leaf image from the Sparkle of The Season stamp set in Bumblebee, Cajun Craze and Old Olive Inks on the bottom of the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Heart & Home DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Sending Hugs

Posted on by
10

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Hope it was a good one for you.

I played with a bundle from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog for today’s card. I’ve had this set, but just finally put some ink on it. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sending Hugs Bundle along with the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from the Just Add Ink Colour Challenge #575.

I started by adhering a panel of Pansy Petals DSP to a Soft Succulent mat off centering it. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the large image from the Stampin’ Up! Sending Hugs Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Polished Pink and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. From a panel of Gold Foil Paper, I adhered a piece of the Foam Adhesive Sheet to the back and cut the ‘HUGS’ sentiment using my Layering Hugs Dies. I also cut from the Gold Foil Paper 3 of the flowers and 3 of the leaves using the Layering Hugs Dies. I adhered the ‘HUGS’ to the card front over the stamped image. I adhered the flowers and leaves to the artwork. I adhered the Basic White panel to the card front.

On a scrap of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Sending Hugs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and cut it out using my Layering Hugs Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Create With Friends Photopolymer Stamp Set in Polished Pink and Soft Succulent Inks. I stamped the flower image from the Sending Hugs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink next to the sentiment and colored it in using my Polished Pink and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Soft Succulent mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the flower image from the Sending Hugs stamp set twice on the envelope front and colored it in using my Polished Pink and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Pansy Petals DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Joyful Life CAS

Posted on by
14

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is your weekend going? Is anyone doing anything adventurous and fun?

I used another one of my favorite sets today for a CAS card. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Joyful Life Cling Stamp Set along with the Brights 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and the Regals 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #440.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #506.

I started by embossing a Basic White card front using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered 2 strips of the Brights DSP in Poppy Parade and Pacific Point and 1 strip of the Garden Green Regals DSP to the card front on an angle. I adhered the card front to a Thick Basic White card base.

Using my Layering Circle Dies I cut the 3rd largest circle and the coordinating scallop circle from a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the image from the Joyful Life stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the circle. I colored the image in using my Crumb Cake, Ivory, Poppy Parade and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers and my Garden Green Stampin’ Write Marker. On a scrap of the Pacific Point Brights DSP I stamped the same image from the Joyful Life stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and fussy cut the apron out using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the stamped image. I adhered the circle to the scalloped circle and then to the card front.

On a scrap of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Joyful Life stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink and fussy cut it using my Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the top of the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin‘ Up! Sunny Sentiments Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered 2 strips of the Garden Green Regals DSP to the corners of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Garden Green mat and then to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Brights DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Pumpkins for The Card Concepts

Posted on by
8

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We’re halfway through the week and the weekend is right around the corner.

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo is Harvest Adventures.  This was one of the first layered designs I made when I first started making cards 16+ years ago and I still love it. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Pretty Pumpkins Cling Stamp Set along with the Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper for my Clean and Layered card. I was inspired by the colors, pumpkins and the baskets for my card.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge #160.  How are you inspired by this photo?

I started by embossing an Old Olive card front using the Checks & Dots Embossing Folder. I adhered the panel to the front of an Old Olive card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered a panel of Harvest Meadow DSP to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Sahara Sand mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the trio pumpkin image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set above the image in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I embossed the panel using my Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the artwork to a Cajun Craze mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and then to a Sahara Sand mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Pumpkin Pie Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the pumpkin vine image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel and colored it in using my Daffodil Delight and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Sahara Sand mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the inside of the Old Olive card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the trio of pumpkins image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them in the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Harvest Meadow DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
