Good Thursday morning stamping friends and 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 Mary’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Sketch Challenge. 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 using this week’s sketch.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive More Than Autumn Bundle along with the Gathering Together Specialty Designer Series Paper (available Sept 3), Stylish Shapes Dies and Gold Foil for my card today.
This is our sketch for this week
Adhere a panel of Gathering Together DSP to a Cajun Craze mat with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to an Early Espresso card base with Stampin’ Seal. Using the largest circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies, cut a panel of Basic Beige. Adhere a panel of Gathering Together DSP to the back of the circle. Adhere the circle to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a panel of Basic Beige, stamp the cup, donut and cinnamon stick images from the Stampin’ Up! More Than Autumn Photopolymer Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink. Stamp the apple image from the More Than Autumn stamp set on the cup band in Early Espresso Ink. Color the images with Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green, Pecan Pie, Real Red, Medium and Medium Light Stampin’ Blends Markers. Cut all the images out using the More Than Autumn Dies.
Arrange the die cuts on the circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots. Using the More Than Autumn Dies, cut the leaf die 2 times each from panels of Basic Beige, Cajun Craze and Gold Foil. Mix the leaf veins and solid leaf sections. Adhere the leaves to the circle using Liquid Glue. Add a Cajun Craze & Gold Dot (available Sept 3) to the circle.
Stamp the sentiments from the More Than Autumn stamp set on a panel of Basic White in Cajun Craze and Early Espresso Ink. Adhere panels of Gathering Together DSP to the sides of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Cajun Craze mat the to the inside of the Early Espresso card base.
Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete your card. Stamp the cup, cinnamon sticks, apples and donut images from the More Than Autumn stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the envelope front. Color images the same as for the card. Adhere a panel of Gathering Together DSP to the envelope flap.

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS: ZZDPZRSF
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 2024 – 2025 Annual Catalog, January – April 2025 Mini Catalog or from the Online Exclusives!

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.
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:
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….
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.
