Falling for Leaves

Grateful Leaf

Welcome to the Create with Connie and Mary Thursday challenge!

Here is our newest color challenge –

Great colors to create this –

I was so excited to play around with the tree looking stamp from Winter Woods stamps set. I repeated the inking and stamping of this set to create the background. Very simple! But, very pretty.

The leaves were framelit cut and layered on one another.

The tied twine was the finishing touch to this!

The other Design Team members at Create with Connie and Mary created some really nice designs using these colors. Check them out!

Create a card and show it off on our Facebook page!

Happy Tuesday! It’s time to share a creation designer for Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

Optional Theme : Fall Favorites

Not too hard since fall is my favorite time of the year!

I love this new Falling for Leaves bundle! I paired it with the Country Lane Designer Series Paper.

This bundle has beautiful stamps and the coordinating dies are wonderful! I’ve already gotten lots of use from them!

This paper is quite shimmery! It’s just beautiful!!! The sentiment strip is Shimmery White card stock to match the paper! It’s also a bit softer white than Whisper White.

Here is the sketch we are working with for the next to weeks at Try Stampin’ on Tuesday –

Welcome back for the last of three posts today for Three Post Saturday! I’ve shared fall cards today for all three postings!

I’m hopping with –

Theme this month is Fall.

Not hard for me at all!

I used the Falling for Leaves Bundle again!

I started with stamping the sentiment first.

I placed the (outer) leaf framelit on the card stock in various places around the sentiment and cut it out. I popped that up on Dimensionals on the Old Olive card base.

I then took four colors and cut the detailed leaf out. I placed those in the leaf. I trimmed the excess. Very simple. Very stunning!

Please check out my two other cards after you’ve hopped along here!

Blogging Friends Blog Hop – September

September 1, 2018 · 4 Comments

Welcome to the second of three posts today for Three Post Saturday! I’ll be sharing fall cards today for all the postings.

This monthly blog hop is for Blogging friends Blog Hop as you can see –

We have a photo inspiration this month –

So pretty! And, fall, my favorite time of the year!

I used the same stamp set and framelits as I had earlier, the Falling for Leaves Bundle –

This is a really pretty bundle! So many neat pieces in the thinlits.

I started with stamping the large leaf randomly on the Soft Sea Foam layer (a favorite of mine).

I stamped another one on Crushed Curry, cutting it out.

The sentiment was stamped and the borders were cut, then placed on a strip of Merry Merlot. An additional borders was cut using the border thinlits that was included!

I added the twine and twigs and that was it! I’d love to hear what you think!

Check out all three of my fall cards today as well as check out the rest of us on the hop today!
