Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend already. I’ve got less than 3 weeks before I leave on a family vacation. I am so looking forward to the vacation and going away with my family.
Who out there likes Hot Apple Cider and Apple Cider Donuts? I always look forward to going apple picking in the fall not only for the fresh apples, but to get some apple cider donuts at the end. Anyone who knows me, knows I do not like donuts, and they don’t like me. There’s something about apple cider donuts that I love, and they like me too. Today’s card really got me in the mood for those donuts. This bundle from the mini catalog caught my eye the day I got to view the catalog and was the first one on my list to get. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! More Than Autumn Bundle along with the Greetings of the Season Dies and Iconic Celebrations 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.
My design came from Sunday Stamps Challenge #344 – Put A Bow On It.
Adhere a panel of Iconic Celebrations DSP to a Real Red mat using Stampin’ Seal. Wrap a piece of the Pecan Pie 3/8″ Center Striped Ribbon around the layered panel and adhere it on the back using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to a Pecan Pie card base using Liquid Glue.
Using the largest Greetings of the Season Dies, cut a panel of Basic Beige. Stamp the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! More Than Autumn Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pecan Pie Ink on the bottom of the tag. From a panel of Iconic Celebrations DSP, cut the cup die from the More Than Autumn Dies. Stamp the center of the cup image from the More Than Autumn stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on a scrap of Basic Beige. Stamp the apple image from the More Than Autumn stamp set in Tuxedo black Ink on the cup band. Color the image using Granny Apple Green and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. Cut the band using Paper Snips. Adhere the band to the die cut cup using Glue Dots. Adhere the cup to the tag using Glue Dots. Adhere the tag to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a panel of Basic White, stamp the donut image from the More Than Autumn stamp set in Versamark Ink. Sprinkle the image with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. Using the Small Blending Brush, add Pecan Pie Ink to the donut. Wipe with a tissue to remove the excess ink from the embossed areas. Stamp the cinnamon stick image from the More Than Autumn stamp set in Pecan Pie on the panel. Color the image using Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. Cut the donut and cinnamon stick using the More Than Autumn Dies. Adhere the donut to the tag using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the cinnamon stick using a tiny amount of Liquid Glue. Add a few Pecan Pie Ribboned Adhesive-Backed Dots to the tag. Tie a small bow using the Pecan Pie 3/8″ Center Striped Ribbon and adhere it to the top of the tag using a Glue Dot.
Stamp the sentiments from More Than Autumn stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. Stamp the cup and cinnamon stick images from the More Than Autumn stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the bottom of the panel. Stamp the apple from the More Than Autumn stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the cup band. Color the image using Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green, Pecan Pie and Real Red Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere the Basic Beige panel to a Real Red mat then to the inside of the Pecan Pie card base.
To finish the card, decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope. Stamp the cup and cinnamon stick image from the More Than Autumn stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on the envelope front. Stamp the apple on the band in Tuxedo Black Ink. Color the image the same as for the card. Adhere a panel of Iconic Celebrations DSP to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
