Good Tuesday morning everyone. Hope your week has started off well. For my card today I used the Country Home Photopolymer stamp set and Buffalo Check stamp set. I’m not much of a ‘country’ type person, but I’m really loving these sets. Once again I’ve used my Stampin’ Blends Markers. I just love coloring with them. I normally can’t color to save my life, but with these markers it seems really easy. Take a look. I’ve gone with some non traditional fall colors.
I started with a piece of Mango Melody cardstock and stamped it with the Buffalo Check stamp in Night of Navy Ink. I adhered it to a Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On a piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the Pitcher image from the Country Home Photopolymer stamp set in Tuxedo Black Momento Ink. I colored it in using my Night of Navy Stampin’ Blends Markers. Above the pitcher I stamped one of the floral images from the Country Home stamp set. I colored this in using my Blackberry Bliss, Mango Melody, Old Olive and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I used some Clear Wink of Stella on the white flowers to make them shimmer a little. I adhered the artwork panel first to a mat of Poppy Parade, using Snail, then to a mat of Night of Navy, using Snail again. I attached a small piece of 5/8″ Burlap Ribbon to the card front using Snail and adhered the matted artwork using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a small piece of Mango Melody cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Country Home stamp set in Night of Navy Ink and made a banner. I edged it with my Night of Navy Stampin’ Write Marker and adhered it to the left side of the card front using Snail.
On the inside I stamped the floral image on the bottom of Whisper White cardstock in Night of Navy Ink stamping off twice. I then stamped another one of the sentiments in Night of Navy Ink in the center. I adhered it to a Mango Melody Mat using Snail and adhered it to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card off I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope by stamping the floral image in Night of Navy Ink, stamping off once, on the front of the envelope. On the envelope flap I stamped the Buffalo Check image in Night of Navy Ink. Thank you for checking out my blog and I hope you will stop back again soon. Give this card a try, it was a pretty easy one. Happy Stamping!

Product List
I started with a piece of Cajun Craze cardstock for the card base. I stamped the small leaf image from Rooted in Nature in Cajun Craze Ink on the card front. I then adhered a piece of Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper to the right side of the card front using Snail.
On a piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the image of one of the trees. To get the 2 colors I colored the stamp using my Soft Suede and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Write Markers. I then sponged a little Mint Macaron on the bottom of the white paper to make it look like grass. Using Snail I adhered it to a Grapefruit Grove mat. I attached it to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a scrap of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the smaller leaf image 3 times, once each in Cajun Craze, Grapefruit Grove and Mint Macaron Inks. I then cut the leaf images out using the Nature’s Roots Framelit Dies with my Big Shot. I attached them to the top left of my center piece using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered a bow made from Linen Thread to the bottom of my 3 leaves using a Glue Dot.
On the inside Whisper White panel, I stamped the small leaf image multiple times using Cajun Craze, Grapefruit Grove and Mint Macaron Inks. Some of the images are full strength and some are stamped off. No sentiment was added so that the card could be used for any occasion. I adhered the panel using Snail to a Grapefruit Grove mat. Using Liquid Glue I adhered it to the card base.
To complete my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope by stamping the small leaf image in Cajun Craze, Grapefruit Grove and Mint Macaron Inks, stamping off once, around the edges of the envelope.
I started with a Grapefruit Grove card base. I adhered a piece of Share What You Love Designer Paper to the front using Snail.
On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the flower image from the Love What You Do Photopolymer Stamp Set in Old Olive Ink on the right side. I colored the flower in using my Grapefruit Grove Stampin’ Write Marker. I then stamped the sentiment in Old Olive Ink on the bottom left of the panel. Using Snail I adhered the artwork panel to a Grapefruit Grove mat. I added 3 Grapefruit Grove pearls from the Share What You Love Artisan Pearl pack. I attached it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope to complete my card. I stamped the flower image on the front of the envelope in Old Olive Ink. I then stamped the ink spot on each flower using Grapefruit Grove Ink, stamping off once.
I started with a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock for the card base and adhered a piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock using Liquid Glue.
I attached a strip of Natures Poem Designer Series Paper on the left side of the Very Vanilla using Snail. I added 3 Grapefruit Grove Pearls from the Share What you Love Artisan Pearl Pack to the top of the Designer Paper.
I stamped the Sentiment from Rooted in Nature in Tranquil Tide Ink on the Very Vanilla. On a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped the leaf from the Rooted in Nature in Grape Grove Ink and cut it out using the Nature’s Roots Framelit Dies with my Big Shot. I attached a bow made from Linen Thread on the stem of the leaf using a Glue Dot and adhered it above the sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On the inside I stamped the leaf again in Grapefruit Grove Ink, stamping off once in the center of the Very Vanilla cardstock. I adhered another strip from the Natures Poem Designer Paper on the left side using Snail. Again using Snail, I attached the Very Vanilla panel to a Tranquil Tide mat and adhered it to the card base using Liquid Glue. I don’t always stamp a sentiment on the inside until I’m ready to use my cards. I like to leave them blank so that I could use it for any occasion needed.
I started by stamping the Buffalo Check stamp in Tuxedo Black Momento Ink on Cherry Cobbler cardstock.
