Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Happy August!! I can’t believe how fast this summer is going. Does anyone have plans this weekend? I’m working today, it’s the 1st and I have to get my bills out. The good news is I have off tomorrow and my boss said to take Monday and Tuesday off too, YAY!!! After working 2 weeks straight it is most welcomed to have off.
For today I have a quick and easy fall card for you using some of the new items coming in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog. Here’s today’s card.
My design is from Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge #344. Here is their sketch.
I started by adhering 2 panels of Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper to Copper Foil Sheet mats using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted panels to a Thick Very Vanilla card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Love of Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cherry Cobbler Ink between the matted panels.
On a panel of Cherry Cobbler cardstock, I stamped the large leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Gather Together Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cherry Cobbler Ink. I cut the leaf out using the Gathered Leaves Dies. The Gather Together stamp set and Gathered Leaves Dies are returning from last year. The best part about this is it is brought back at the bundle price saving you 10%. I cut Crushed Curry, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie leaves from the Stitched Leaves Dies. I adhered the leaves to the right of the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots. I tied a small bow from the 1/8″ Copper Grosgrain Ribbon, from the Basket Weave & Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack, and adhered it to the large leaf using a Glue Dot.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Love of Leaves stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink in the center of a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Gather Together stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink, stamping off 3 times, over the sentiment. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Very Vanilla card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope. I stamped the leaf image from the Gather Together stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink, stamping off twice, on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Gilded Autumn Specialty 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!!
