Good Tuesday morning my fellow stampers. Welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Fall Frenzy”. We can interpret this however we want. Here’s my card for today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Pretty Pumpkins Cling Stamp Set along with the Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper for my card today.
I started by adhering a Harvest Meadow DSP card front to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Crumb Cake card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the trio pumpkin image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Old Olive & Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I embossed the panel using my Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder and adhered the embossed panel to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal. On a small panel of Crumb Cake cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I made a multiloop bow using Linen Thread and adhered it to the card front using a Glue Dot. I added a few Pumpkin Pie Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the artwork.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf images from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink above and below the sentiment. I colored the leaves in using my Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the trio pumpkin image from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image in using my Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Old Olive & Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of Harvest Meadow DSP to the envelope flap.
