Stampin' Up! Leaf Collection Fall Card

Good day, folks.

We are a few days into fall officially and three months until Christmas!  Two of my favourite times of the year.  Today's project will be fall based and one I can't wait to try.  I am featuring the Leaf Collection background stamp using some fall colours and then heat embossing.  

Using the Real Red, Daffodil Delight and Cajun Craze ink pads and the Blending Brushes, apply ink where you want the colours to be.  I start off the paper and in a circular motion.  You can see that I layered, red, then cajun and daffodil last.  Then I stamped using Versamark, sprinkled on the White Embossing Powder and heat set with my Stampin' Heat tool. It needed to be trimmed just a bit and then adhered to the card front. 

I also added a bit of the Cajun Craze to the insert using a Blending Brush, then stamped the sentiment using Memento and finally added to the inside of the card base.

Next, I punched my scrap of Crushed Curry cardstock, stamped my sentiment using Memento and added a few dimensionals to the back.  I added some of the Natural tones linen thread to the front of the card, then layered the punched sentiment over top.

A few of the Rhinestone Basic Jewels finished off the card front and voila!

Stampin' Up! Winter Meadow Christmas Card

Image
 Good Day Everyone!  I thought this card layout was very interesting.  While it does seem to be a fairly simple card to create, if you try to mass produce or swap out dsp, you can get a bit lost in the cuts.  Please don't shy away from this though, it really is a creative way to mix and match your dsp.  If you don't have dsp, you could easily make your own and then cut.  I watched a video on you tube from another demonstrator to make sure I did the cuts correctly.  In the end, it isn't about measuring at all, but making sure the stack you use are always lined up. Using three different pieces of dsp that measure 4 x 5 1/4, stack them all on top of each other.  Remember, however you have them stacked will be the layout when you swap them out.  Now you can create three different cards all from these pieces and simply shuffling them between the three card bases. Place the three pieces on your trimmer, and cut from the top left, over about 1 3/4 or 2 " from the left.  Cut i

Stampin' Up! Splendid Autumn Sympathy Card

Image
Today's card was inspired by a sketch seen on facebook from an American Demonstrator.  I was intrigued by the cool way to use some of our beautiful designer series paper and the best part is, you don't need a huge piece! I am attending a Stampin' Up! event this weekend and we were asked to bring a few projects to share and this is one of my projects. Fall isn't officially here yet, but once school starts up and the leaves start to fall off the trees, it's pretty close.  The Splendid Autumn designer series paper is gorgeous, the beautiful rich colours are simply stunning.   The cardbase and matte layer are Wild Wheat and the cardstock that the dsp is mounted on is Crushed Curry.  Simply cut the pieces and adhere together and then adhere to the card front.  I stamped using Memento onto a strip of Basic White cardstock which was then mounted on to another piece of Crushed Curry.  This was then popped up using Stampin' Dimensionals after the length of 2023-2025 In C
