Happy Fall

  I love having seasonal cards in my stash. The inside is left blank so I can include a sentiment for whatever the reason I am sending a card - thank you, just a note and thinking of you to name a few. When I saw the "Ryan & Ainsley" stamp in the High Hopes line up I knew they would be perfect to not only help celebrate fall but to add to my stash. How cute are these two!?!! 

                                                       

I stamped these cuties on alcohol marker friendly paper, coloured them with Copic markers and cut them out using a circle die. I didn't colour the grass all the way down to the bottom of the circle so I cut the bottom of the circle off and mounted it on a piece of card stock. Patterned paper from the Fall pad from Echo Park worked perfectly for my card. After cutting a piece of the gingham paper to fit the card base, I cut a matching piece with a banner die. I didn't have the next size up to create a card stock banner to put it so I traced the outside of the banner die and cut it to size. 

Next, I cut a piece of flower paper to go in between the gingham layers and added it to matching card stock. I like putting the card stock behind each layer as I think it helps define each layer. I masked off the sentiment - it has a "y'a'll" at the end of it - with a post it note, inked and stamped it and added it to a piece of card stock. Some cotton lace ribbon and enamel dots finish off my card.

Little Nutty Buddy

 It’s Wednesday, and this week I'm sharing a card featuring Little Nutty Buddy - M150 from (High Hopes Rubber Stamps) with the sweet sentiment Happy Fall Y'all - G086 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps). My husband and I went on a wonderful nature walk this past weekend through the forest to see to falls. It was very beautiful seeing the fall colours and the little squirrels running around gathering acorns for their winter supply of food, just like little Nutty Buddy.

To create the card this week, I began with base card 5.25" x 4.25" from The Paper Studio - Primary Base Colours. I inked around all of the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Inks - Ground Espresso. The scalloped circles were die cut using my Cuttlebug and Spellbinders Nestabilities - Petite Scalloped Circles - Large. For the larger circle - AC Cardstock - Autumn was used and then inked around with the same ink used on the base card. The background acorn paper was die cut using My Creative Time - Rectangle Frame Dies. Both of the background papers are from Your Next Stamp - Fabulous Fall collection. I inked around the patterned die cuts with Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Spiced Marmalade.

The sentiment was stamped with Memento - Tuxedo Black ink and then Nellie Snellin Die - MFD 007 was used to cut it out. I then cut the border part of the die cut off and just left the oval centre. This was inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Spiced Marmalade. 2 Kraftin' Kimmie - Holiday Dots were added on both sides.

I stamped the main image onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using my MISTI and Memento - Tuxedo Black ink. It was coloured in with Copic Markers. Then I put it through my Brother Scan and Cut to create the thin white border around the image.

To assemble the card, I attached the main background and large scalloped circle directly to the base using 2-sided tape. The sentiment, smaller scalloped circle and image were popped up with 3M VHB - 2 sided tape.

Card Recipe:

Stamp: Little Nutty Buddy - M150 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps)

Sentiment: Happy Fall Y'all - G086 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps)

Inks: Memento - Tuxedo Black, Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Spiced Marmalade, Tim Holtz Distress Inks - Ground Espresso

Happy Fall Y'All

 It’s Wednesday, and this week I'm sharing a card featuring Fall Joy - T041 from (High Hopes Rubber Stamps) with the sweet sentiment Happy Fall Y'All - G290 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps). These racoons are having a blast playing in the leaves. We used to do that too when we were little. So much fun. I love seeing all of the beautiful fall colours. Such a wonderful time of the year.

To create the card this week, I stamped the main image and then coloured it in with Copic Markers. Using My Creative Time - Rectangle Frame Dies, My Creative Time - Rectangle Frame Layer Dies and my Cutttlebug, I die cut the main image and the background layers.

For the base card 5.25" x 4.25", I used The Paper Studio - Primary Base Colours. The backing behind the main images is from AC Cardstock - Autumn. I attached the main image to this piece using double-sided tape. The plaid paper is from PhotoPlay - Gnome for the Holidays Thanksgiving. Once this background paper was die-cut, all of the edges were inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Carved Pumpkin. This was then applied directly to the base with double-sided tape.

To complete the assembly, I added 3M VHB - 2 sided tape on the back of the first layers and popped them up onto the bottom 2 layers. The sentiment was stamped with Memento - Tuxedo Black in and I fussy cut around it. I ran this through my Xyron Create a Sticker and then layered it onto some Orange cardstock. Then I fussy cut around it again and ran it through my Xyron as well. Then I inked around the edges with the same Tim Holtz ink I used earlier. I placed it over the main image and used 2 very small pieces of 3M VHB - 2 sided tape where it went over the edges of the main image.

Card Recipe:

Stamp: Fall Joy - T041 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps)

Sentiment: Happy Fall Y'All - G290 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps)
