FOR ALL THINGS



You may have realized by now that For All Things, Stamp Set is one of my favorites this year for Fall.  I have used it quite often.  Isn't it wonderful when you purchase a stamp set and can use it often.  Sometimes I feel I don't use my sets enough but not in the case of this one.  Card stock includes Mossy Meadow a 2014- 2015 In Color and Cajun Craze plus Very Vanilla.  Inks include, Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow and markers of Early Expresso and Sahara Sand.  Some of our new Fall Washi Tape was used too.

GRATEFUL for YOU



This is a card I made for my Hostess Club members and as a swap with fellow demos.  I just love the Wondrous Wreath Stamp Set.  You can use this set all year round.  I decided to make a fall card with it and of course I wanted to use Blackberry Bliss.  If you have followed my blog you know I love this deep rich color which is part of the 2014-2015 In Colors Stampin' Up! has out right now.   The Designer Series Paper I used is actually the Halloween paper.  Because there are two sides to all our designer series paper it gives us so many extra options.  This wood look doesn't have a thing to do with Halloween but could if you so desired to use it that way.  I used a little of our Washi Tape to hold my wreath up over my wood.  The sentiment comes from the stamp set, For All Things.  The ribbon is Blackberry Bliss.  Blow is the inside of my card.  Again I used our DSP.

Pumpkins Everywhere


Hi Stampers,
The above card is done by Sue Lepako, a fellow demo who lives close to me in Pennsylvania.  Sue used the Scattered Seasonal Saying as a background for her pumpkins.  BTW, pumpkins are on every home porch or steps here in Pennsylvania right now.  Sue used daubers to ink her pumpkins and give them that home grown look.  The Stamp Set is the cute one, Fall Fest.  It is full of ghosts, leaves and faces for the pumpkins if you so desire.  This card was done for a Club Sue had and also for the swap we do as demos each month.



I like the way Sue added just one more pumpkin on the inside.  Hope it gives you an idea for a card too.  Remember CASE means copy and share everything.  Take care.

Four Feathers because Three



My card today is using the Stamp Set, Four Feathers.  For this card, I actually only used three feathers.  (smiling)  Who would have ever thought feathers would become so popular.  My colors for this card are Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, Old Olive, and Very Vanilla.  Seems I have been using these colors allot this fall.  Some of that may have to do with Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper, Color Me Autumn, because they include all those shades.  I think this piece of Designer Series Paper looks like Indian Corn.  My Uncle Jake always gave me Indian Corn from his garden in the Fall.  



This is the inside of my card where I simply stamped a branch from the Stamp Set For All Things in Cajun Craze.  I hope you like this card.

Witches and Goblins and Spooks Oh My!


Good day Everyone,  This little card is one I made for some of the grandchildren.  This one is being sent to China since two of our boys are in China with their parents for the next 18 months or so.  Because it is going to a foreign country I did not put any embellishments that might cause the card to be stuck in the process.  I therefore used our black marker to draw the eyes and keep our little ghost flat.  I did tie a small ribbon on it and hope that doesn't cause a problem.

I used Stampin' Up! designer series paper.  I could have stamped the little guy from the Stamp Set Fall Fest but decided instead to use our newest glimmer paper and just cut him out using the framelits that coordinate with the stamp set.  I used Tangerine Tango and Crushed Curry cardstock.  Hope you like him.

FOR ALL THINGS


This Hello Fall card is made by Angie Feathers, a member of my downline.  Angie's idea was to use some of our Burlap Ribbon as a burlap bag.  Isn't this cute how she has used the stamps from For All Things to really  set off the burlap.  And of course, Stampin' Up! markers come in handy on the two colored acorns.  Not much card stock used in this card but it doesn't need it since the focus is on the bag.  Thanks Angie for a nice fall card.

Flower Patch and Masking Technique


During my Club in September we worked on the technique of Masking.  I choose the Set Flower Patch to make the card.  The inks used were all Fall colors, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, and lastly Blackberry Bliss (which I love).  The Crushed Curry flower and the Blackberry Bliss one are both showing as if they are half hiding behind the large Pumpkin Pie flower.
My Card Stock is Blackberry Bliss and Pumpkin Pie and of course Whisper White.  The ribbon is retired.  We punched out a butterfly from the fall designer series paper, Color Me Autumn. Finally, we had to add just a touch of bling.  A couple rhinestones on two flowers and the butterfly.
