Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Leaves for The Card Concepts

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. After taking a summer break, we’re back. Our 1st inspiration photo is Colorful Fall. Here is my card that I was inspired by the photo.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Leaves Bundle and the Stampin’ Up! Love of Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today. I was inspired by the beautiful colors of the leaves for my clean and layered card.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concept and join us for our challenge #159. How are you inspired by this photo.

I started by randomly stamping the leaf images from the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Leaves Cling Stamp Set in Bumblebee, Cherry Cobbler and Fresh Freesia Inks on a Basic White panel. I stamped the splotch image from the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink randomly on the panel.

I embossed the panel using my Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the panel to a Thick Basic White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Using my Intricate Leaves Dies I cut 1 branch from a panel of Soft Suede cardstock and 3 leaves from panels of Bumblebee, Cherry Cobbler and Fresh Freesia cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Love of Leaves stamp set on a panel of Basic White cardstock in soft Succulent Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Hippo & Friends Dies.

I arranges the branch and leaves on the sentiment die cut and adhered them using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Glue Dots. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small knot using the 3/8″ Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon and adhered it to the stems using a Glue Dot. I added a few Brushed Metallic Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Love of Leaves stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaves from the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set in Bumblebee, Cherry Cobbler and Fresh Freesia Ink around the top of the panel. I stamped the splotch image from the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink, stamping off once, around the sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I stamped the leaves and splotch images from the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set in Bumblebee, Cherry Cobbler, Fresh Freesia and Soft Succulent Inks on the envelope front and 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! Nothing’s Better Than Coffee for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend.

I’m very excited today to be a part of the Design Team for The Card Concepts. I was so honored when they asked me to join their team. The Card Concepts is a 2 week Inspirational Challenge. Here is my card for today.

This challenge is Winter Warmth.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concept to join us and play along.

I was inspired by the entire photo from the cappuccino, colors and the snowflakes.

I started by adhering a panel of Whisper White cardstock to an Adhesive Sheet and cut multiple snowflakes out using my So Many Snowflakes Dies. I adhered the snowflakes to a 4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″ panel of Whisper White cardstock then cut it down to a 4″ X 5 1/4″ panel.

On thin stirps of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Nothing’s Better Than Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cinnamon Cider Ink. On another panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the coffee cup image from the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink 3 times and colored them in using my Cinnamon Cider and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images out using my Love You More Than Dies. I cut the ‘coffee’ sentiment out of a panel of Cinnamon Cider cardstock that I had adhered to a Foam Adhesive Sheet using my Love You More Than Dies.

I adhered the thin sentiment strips to Real Red mats using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the ‘coffee’ sentiment to the card front. I adhered the 3 cups of coffee to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a Cinnamon Cider mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the coffee cum image from the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel and colored them in using my Cinnamon Cider and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered 2 of the smallest snowflakes I cut from the So Many Snowflakes Dies on either side of the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Cinnamon Cider mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Real Red card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the coffee cup image from the Nothing’s Better Than stamp set 3 times across the bottom of the envelope front and colored the images in using my Cinnamon Cider and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Cinnamon Cider 2020-2022 In-Color Designer Series Paper 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!!
