Thankful Friends - High Hopes Stamps

We just celebrated our Canadian Thanksgiving and it was a beautiful weekend to do so!

I made this card using High Hopes Thankful Friends and the stamp can be found here!

I tried to add some Fall elements like burlap, twine, and colourful leaves along with Fall colours.  

Coloured with Copics and a little touch of  airbrushing was added to the sky.

I picked this pumpkin up on a drive just North of the City.  I love it!! It called a "Warty" pumpkin  which I've newer seen before! 

|Thanks for peeking. Hope you enjoy the rest of the week!

Guard Duty Rudy!

Are you stuffed?

So are you full to the brim? It was Thanksgiving this past weekend for us Canadians and we spent it up at the cottage doing nothing but eating LOL. I'm stuffed and probably don't have to eat all week now! For my post today I am sharing with you two cards using the adorable High Hopes Stamp called "Guard Duty Rudy".

I chose papers from the new Echo Park The Story of Fall 6x6 collection! The papers in this collection are beautiful, I almost wanted to hoard them rather than use them (LOL). I inked all the edges of my paper with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Vintage Photo.

MichelleO here and this week I pulled out one really cute High Hope Stamp, Harvest Mice.

Coloring cute mice is so much fun - coloring yes... finding in the house no. LOL I colored with Copics, and matched up some older papers from My Minds Eye Out and About collection. Love that the papers have some bling sparkle to them. I sewed down all the layers

Inside I used the same papers and added the sentiment  "Large Script Thank You" it is one of my favorite sentiments -

Fall Fun!

 Happy Terrific Tuesday!

Thanks for stopping by today to see my Fall card using the oh so adorable High Hopes stamp called "Tommy's Fall Fun".  Fall is my favourite time of the year and this image reminds me of when my girls were small and loved to play in the leaves!

I absolutely love the new Doodlebug Fall Friends collection. The colours are so rich and the patterns so cute! I made this A2 card and kept it fairly simple in design. I've always been so inspired by crafters that sew on their cards! I decided to give it a try this time and couldn't believe how easy it was. I was always afraid to sew on my cards but after this....look out sewing machine here I come!

The inside sentiment is also from HH and is called "One Of Those Days".

Copics used:

Skin: E000, E01, E31, R20

Pants & hair: E34, E35, E37

Top: R35, R37, R39, B04, B06

Leaves: Y23, Y26/ YR02, YR04/ E31, E33/ YG91, YG93
