Good Monday morning my fellow stampers. How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone get to go apple picking or pumpkin picking? The extent of my apple picking was going to Costco. It’s not looking too promising for me going this year.
For today, I made another thank you card. I need to send quite a few out in the next week or so, so I figured I’d better get busy making extra. My card design and colors were a challenge given to us by my upline. She’s doing a weekly challenge for our group. Here’s my card.
Here are the sketch and colors for our challenge.
I started by embossing a panel of Crumb Cake cardstock using the Layered Leaves 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On a panel of Shaded Spruce cardstock I stamped the large leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Gather Together Photopolymer Stamp Set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the image out using the Gathered Leaves Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a small piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the larger pumpkin image from the Gather Together stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink. I colored the pumpkin in using my Crumb Cake and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers and cut it out using my Gathered Leaves Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! New Wonders Cling Stamp Set in Shaded Spruce inside the pumpkin. I adhered the pumpkin to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added 2 large and 2 small Pearl Basic Jewels that I had colored using my Dark Shaded Spruce and Dark Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers.
On the inside I stamped the smaller pumpkin image from the Gather Together stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on the bottom of a Whisper White panel. I masked the smaller pumpkins and stamped the larger pumpkin image from the Gather Together stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink next to them. I colored all the pumpkins in using my Crumb Cake and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! A Big Thank You Photopolymer Stamp Set in Shaded Spruce Ink in the center of the Whisper White panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Shaded Spruce mat using Snail and then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped and colored the pumpkin images from the Gather Together stamp set on the envelope front the same as I did for the inside of the card. I stamped the large leaf image from the Gather Together stamp set in Shaded Spruce Ink on 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!!
