Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. Today starts the BIG Last Chance Product Sale. You’re going to want to RUN not walk to get those items from the September-December 2023 Mini Catalog before they are gone for good.

Today’s card is one that was designed by a team member Pete that came to the retreat with us. It’s a beautiful fall card, but unfortunately the DSP is no longer available. You can make this into a beautiful spring card by using the Meandering Meadow DSP or a winter card by using the One Horse Open Sleigh DSP. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Bundle along with the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder and the All About Autumn Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a panel of Copper Clay using the Leaf Fall 3D EF. I adhered the embossed panel to the left side of the Copper Clay card front using Liquid Glue. I adhered a strip of Rose Gold Spec Paper to the Copper Clay card front using Liquid Glue. I adhered the panel of All About Autumn DSP to the card front overlapping the Rose Gold strip, using Stampin’ Seal.

From scraps of the All About Autumn DSP, I cut some of the leaves using the Autumn Leaves Dies. I adhered the leaves to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Very Vanilla, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pretty Peacock Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Autumn Leaves Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Blooming Pearl to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiments from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. I adhered a strip of All About Autumn DSP to the bottom of the panel. I cut a couple leaves from scraps of All About Autumn DSP and adhered them to the top of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Copper Clay mat then to the inside of the Copper Clay card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of All About Autumn DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaf Fall for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We are already halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend. It’s amazing how quickly you can get back into the routine after being away for a few days.

Today’s card is for the inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. We are doing month-long challenges now, so you have all month to enter multiple times.  The inspiration photo #201 is Fall Leaves. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Fall 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Bundle along with the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder and All About Autumn 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper. I was inspired by the overall theme of the photo for my Free Style Collage card today.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 201.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Fall 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Very Vanilla card front using the Leaf Fall EF. I wrapped a piece of Copper Clay 3/8″ Textured Ribbon around the bottom of the panel and adhered it on the back using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the card front to a Very Vanilla Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Fall 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I had a whole stack of scraps from the All About Autumn DSP, so I cut the elm, maple and oak leaves using the Autumn Leaves Dies. This is a great way to used up some of those scraps.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Fall 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Very Vanilla, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with Copper Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I randomly adhered the die cut leaves under the sentiment using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Glue Dots. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Speckled Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Fall 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiments from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Copper Clay Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. I adhered 2 strips of the All About Autumn DSP to the top and bottom of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Copper Clay mat then to the inside of the Very Vanilla Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Fall 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the All About Autumn DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Season of Chic Double Z Fold

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. Does anyone have any plans? It’s supposed to be a beautiful day here in NJ with temperatures in the low 80’s today. I’ll be at work all day, but hopefully it’ll still be nice when I get out so I can go walking.

I pulled out one of my favorite sets from the Annual Catalog for today’s card. If you’d like to see a quick video how I made my card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin’ Up! Go To Greetings Autumn

Good Monday morning stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? Was anyone able to enjoy some beautiful fall weather? Yesterday was a beautiful day here in NJ, but very windy. I went out for multiple walks throughout the day. It seemed like every time I had time to go work on cards, Coraline needed to go out and wanted a walk.

I have a quick card for you today using multiple different products. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made the card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Go To Greetings Autumn 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Go To Greetings Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Bundle, All About Autumn 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and Deckled Rectangle Dies for my card today.

My design is from Sunday Stamps Challenge #320, Frame It.

Stampin' Up! Go To Greetings Autumn 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of All About Autumn DSP to a Very Vanilla Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut another panel of All About Autumn DSP using the 4th from the largest Deckled Rectangle Dies. I cut a panel of Very Vanilla using the 2nd largest Deckled Rectangle Dies.

Stampin' Up! Go To Greetings Autumn 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the die cut panel of DSP to the Very Vanilla mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the framed panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Go To Greetings Autumn 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a strip of Very Vanilla, I stamped the sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with Copper Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I cut the ends on an angle using Paper Snips and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut the small maple and oak leave dies from the Autumn Leaves Dies from panels of All About Autumn DSP. I adhered the leaves under the sentiment using Glue Dots. I added a few Adhesive Backed Speckled Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Go To Greetings Autumn 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set in Copper Clay Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. I adhered a panel of All About Autumn DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Copper Clay mat then to the inside of the Very Vanilla Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Go To Greetings Autumn 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the oak leaf image from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Copper Clay Ink on the envelope front, stamping off 2 times on scrap paper. I stamped the leaf veins from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Copper Clay Ink over the solid images. I adhered a panel of All About Autumn DSP to the envelope flap.

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Abundant Beauty

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. Here we are again, halfway through the work week and on our way to the weekend.

Today’s card is the type I don’t usually make. CAS with no layers. I don’t remember the last time I made one of these. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Abundant Beauty 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks along with the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Bundle for my card today.

I played along with The Paper Players Challenge #662.

I also joined in with Aud Sentiments Challenge #306, Ink Blending and/or a Fall/Thanksgiving + a Sentiment.

I entered my card in CAS of Friday Challenge #268 Autumn.

The last one I joined in with is Inspire. Create. Challenge #153 Theme Challenge Autumn/Halloween.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Abundant Beauty 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by using Post-It Note Tape and making the edges of a Very Vanilla card base. I placed the Abundant Beauty Decorative Mask over the card base and secured it with tape so it wouldn’t move.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Abundant Beauty 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started with my Small Blending Brush and Crushed Curry Ink, adding ink all over the card base. I then added some Pumpkin Pie Ink using my Small Blending Brush going more around the edges. I added a small amount of Cajun Craze Ink with my Small Blending Brush next. Lastly, I added Old Olive Ink using the Small Blending Brush just in a few places. I removed the Abundant Beauty Decorative Mask and the tape from the edges of the card base.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Abundant Beauty 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Very Vanilla, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cajun Craze Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the maple leaf die from the Autumn Leaves Dies. I adhered a piece of Black & Very Vanilla 3/8″ Large Check Ribbon to the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Speckled Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Abundant Beauty 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. Using the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks and Small Blending Brushes, I added some leaves in the corners of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to the inside of the Very Vanilla Thick card base.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Abundant Beauty 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I used the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks and Small Blending Brushes to add leaves to the envelope front and flap.

Stampin’ Up! Rustic Crate for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you, I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Theme Challenge. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card using this week’s theme.

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Rustic Crate Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! So Sincere Cling Stamp Set, All About Autumn 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

This is our theme for this week.

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by embossing a Pretty Peacock card front using the Distressed Tile EF. I adhered the card front to a Gray Granite card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut 3 panels of All About Autumn DSP on an angle and adhered them to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Very Vanilla, I stamped the pumpkin/sunflower image from the Stampin’ Up! Rustic Crate Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Calypso Coral, Copper Clay, Crumb Cake, Lemon Lolly, Moody Mauve, Pecan Pie and Pretty Peacock Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the Rustic Crate Dies. I adhered the image to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a double bow using Linen Thread and adhered it to the card front using a Glue Dot.

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Moody Mauve, I cut the sentiment using the Rustic Crate Dies and adhered it to the card front. I added a few 2023-2025 In-Color Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the So Sincere stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. I adhered a strip of All About Autumn DSP to the side of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Pretty Peacock mat then to the inside of the Gray Granite card base.

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To complete my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the pumpkin/sunflower image from the Rustic Crate stamp set in tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope flap and colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of All About Autumn DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Rustic Crate Hello 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Around The Bend Fall Thank You

Good Sunday morning stamping friends, Happy October. I can’t believe it’s October already. It’s warming up here in NJ for the next few days so it kind of feels like we should be back to August. I’m guessing this is our Indian summer that we get every year. I hope your weekend is going well. I’ll be at work all day today getting the bills ready to mail out.

I have a quick card for you today playing with products from the Annual Catalog that I haven’t played with in a while. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Around The Bend 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Around The Bend Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Around The Bend Dies, All About Autumn 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Around The Bend 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by cutting a panel of all About Autumn DSP using the Around The Bend Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Around The Bend stamp set on the bottom of a Very Vanilla panel in Copper Clay Ink.

Stampin' Up! Around The Bend 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I embossed the Very Vanilla panel using the Leaf Fall EF. I adhered the die cut DSP” to the top of the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered panel to a Mossy Meadow mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Around The Bend 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I wrapped a piece of Very Vanilla Baker’s Twine from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack around the layered panel twice and ties a bow. I adhered the layered panel to a Copper Clay card base using Stampin’ Dimensonals. I added a few Adhesive Backed Speckled Dots to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Around The Bend 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Around The Bend stamp set in Copper Clay Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. Using the scraps that came off the bottom of the die cut card front, I cut the leaves from Around The Bend Dies and adhered them to the top of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Mossy Meadow mat then to the inside of the Copper Clay card base.

Stampin' Up! Around The Bend 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf image from Around The Bend stamp set in Copper Clay Ink on the envelope front, stamping off on scrap paper once. I adhered a panel of All About Autumn DSP to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Easel Fold

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. It’s still raining here in NJ. Yesterday was pretty bad with flooding. It took my husband well over an hour to get home because of all the roads closed because of floods. We’re expecting more rain today, but tomorrow it’s supposed to be up in the 80’s again until Wednesday with no rain. Hopefully it will help to dry things up a little and turn the rest of my tomoatoes red.

Today’s card idea I got from a team member of mine Rosie Kean. She made a similar card a few weeks back and I really liked it. I used a couple different techniques on the card using the Blending Brushes and Baby Wipe Technique which is one of my favorites to use in the fall. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made the card, Click Here to see my Instagram Reel. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Easel 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Bundle along with the Aspen Trees Dies, Timber 3D Embossing Folder and Online Exclusive Naturally Gilded Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Easel 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by cutting a Basic White card front using the Aspen Trees Dies. I then embossed the panel using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. I took a panel of the Naturally Gilded DSP and using my Blending Brushes added Crushed Curry and Pumpkin Pie Inks. I adhered the panel to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the Crushed Curry easel card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Easel 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

I adhered the die cut embossed card front to the layered panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Using the Autumn Leaves Dies, I cut the maple leaf from a panel of Cajun Craze, Oak leaf from a panel of Crushed Curry and Elm leaves from a panel of Pumpkin Pie.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Easel 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

I took 2 folded baby wipes and put them in an empty stamp case. I added drops of Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie from Stampin’ Ink Refills. I love this technique for the fall because every leaf comes out different. I inked the large maple leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Photopolymer Stamp Set and stamped it on a panel of Basic White. I cut the leaf out using the Autumn Leave Dies and the leaf veins from a panel of Oxidized Copper paper and adhered it to the stamped leaf. I adhered the leaf to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the oak and elm leaves to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few silver Naturals Adhesive Backed Sequins to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Autumn Leaves Easel 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Cajun Craze Ink. I stamped 2 maple leaves from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in the top corners of the panel using the same inked baby wipes. You can see how each leaf stamps differently. I stamped the leaf veins from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on top of the stamped leaves. I adhered a strip of the Naturally Gilded DSP to the bottom of the panel, which I had brushed Crushed Curry and Pumpkin Pie Inks on with my Blending Brushes. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Cajun Craze mat then to the inside of the Crushed Curry card base. I added the small die cut maple leaf on the bottom of the panel, where I wanted the easel to stop, using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the maple leaf from the Autumn Leaves stamp set on the envelope front and flap using the same inked up baby wipes. Once again you can see how every leaf is different. I stamped the leaf veins from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink over the stamped leaf.

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog!  Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

  1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
  2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

Stampin’ Up! Framed Foliage

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and heading to the weekend and the end of the month. Another month gone already.

I have another quick card for you today using a host exclusive set. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made the card, click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Framed Foliage 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Host Exclusive Framed Foliage Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! fruitful Blessings Cling Stamp Set, Gorgeously Made Dies and All About Autumn 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Stampin' Up! Framed Foliage 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by adhering a panel of All About Autumn DSP to a Cajun Craze mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Gray Granite card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Framed Foliage 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, I stamped the fall image from the Framed Foliage stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using Cajun Craze, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Petal Pink, Pumpkin Pie, Real red and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the bottom of the panel using the torn edge die from the Gorgeously Made Dies. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Framed Foliage 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a strip of Cajun Craze, I stamped the sentiment from the Fruitful Blessings stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment out using the Gorgeously Made Dies. I adhered a piece of Linen Thread to the center of the artwork using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentient over the Linen Thread using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rustic Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Fruitful Blessings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic white. I stamped the acorn/leaf image from the Fruitful Blessings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel and colored it with Crumb Cake and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a strip of All About Autumn DSP to the side of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Cajun Craze mat then to the inside of the Gray Granite card base.

Stampin' Up! Framed Foliage 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the acorn/leaf image and acorn image from the Fruitful Blessings stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the images with Crumb Cake and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of All About Autumn DSP to the envelope flap.
