First Day Of Fall

  Happy first day of fall! Fall means cooler temperatures, pumpkin patches and corn mazes to run through and October and Thanksgiving are just around the corner. To help ring in a new season I have chosen to use "Country Harvest" from High Hopes Rubber Stamps a gorgeous fall stamp and I think perfect for a Thanksgiving card too!

After stamping and colouring the stamp with copic markers, I used a stitched edge die to cut an the bottom of the stamp. The stitches don't show but I wanted a clean curve edge for my design. I wanted to keep the patterned paper for the background and card design simple to keep the focus on the stamp so I chose a simple wood grain paper and put it on a 6x6 card base. After cutting the curve edge I mounted it on matching card stock and cut the edge again. To add a bit of colour I added some pieces of gingham patterned paper. A sentiment, twine and enamel dots finish off the card.

Country Harvest

Good morning High Hopes Stamps friends, 

 I have a Fall slimline card to share today!

I started with a slimline card base that measures 4'' wide by 8" tall. I stamped "Country Harvest"  and coloured with alcohol markers, then I fussy cut it. I add glossy accent to a few of the apples. I also used a white gel pen to add details. After my images were dry I pop "Country Harvest" with foam tape. Used dies from my stash to created my background. The paper is Spiced Pumpkin from Craft Smart. To finish the front of my card I added some white glitter stickers and generously adhesive gold sequins.

Here is the inside!

For the inside I stamped this adorable sentiment "Bold Have A Blessed Season" over white cardstock and die cut it with a stackable circle die. Used the same pattern paper from the front. To finish my slimline card I adhesive more sequins. This was a fun card to created, hope you have enjoy it.

Thank you for visit my blog today!

Have a BLESS day.

Happy Tuesday HH Followers!

Fall themed cards are happening over on the High Hopes and One Crazy Stamper Blogs for August! I think this rubber stamp from High Hopes has to be one of my favourites! "Country Harvest" just about sums up Fall for me! Pumpkins, hay, picking apples (for pie?) all done in those gorgeous Fall colours! If you choose, you can even stamp something onto the little wooden sign! 

I love the layered look of the cardstock that is cut with a Stitched Scallop die. The cardstock matches perfectly with the paper I used from the Doodle Bug "Happy Harvest" 6x6 collection. All the pumpkins have some glitter pen added to them. A simple designed card today finished off with some ribbon and a leaf gem sticker.

Copics Used:

Apples: R37, R59, R89/ YG03, YG25

Pumpkins: YR0000, YR000/ YR15, YR16, YR18/ YR04, YR07, YR09/ YR23, YR24, YR27

Country Harvest!

 Happy Tuesday!
We are still celebrating a Fall/ Halloween theme over on the High Hopes Blog. Today I am sharing with you a card I made using the "Country Harvest" stamp!

I love the little Fall theme of this stamp and it was so fun to colour! I added some brown mesh type ribbon, a leafy flourish and some flowers to finish off my card. In the middle of the flowers I used some YNS gumdrops. I also added Clear Wink of Stella glitter pen to the apples and pumpkins.

The little wooden sign comes blank and I added the "Fall" using a stamp from my stash. The Hello is die cut from some MFT cork sheets. I cut out two and glued them together for added dimension.

Here you can see the popped up dimensions to my card.

Country Harvest

Howdy - MichelleO here and today I am in the fall feeling, maybe it because it is getting time for a little Thanksgiving here. And this image is a wonderful Fall image!

Country Harvest -

Such a fun image to color! I colored with my Copics (colors below)  Now this is a really large image and I thought it needed an easel card to show it off the most possible.  So I found some fall papers from Graphic 45 and created an easel card with some kraft card stock and pretty fall papers. I sewed down all the layers and then added some Martha Stewart border punches. A little wood fence and grass.

Close up of the image -

And then for that great sentiment that works so well for those Fall Cards - Bold Have a Blessed Season sentiment.

And here are the Copic colors used -
