Simple Sunday - Colorful Seasons Falling Leaves - Three Ways!!

Welcome to another Simple Sunday.  It is my favorite day to stamp!! We have finally had some Fall weather in my part of Texas, granted it only lasted for one day.  I am sure we will have more real soon.  To celebrate I made another simply stamped falling leaves cards.  This time I used the fabulous Colorful Seasons stamp set.  If you want a set that covers all the seasons this is it.  Snow flakes, leaves, branches, flowers, beach chairs, etc.  It inspires relaxation. This project was inspired by Linda Callahan's card created in 2017.


Card Recipe:
  • Stamp Set: Colorful Seasons
  • Paper: Old Olive 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4", Very Vanilla 4" x 5 1/4"
  • Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Sahara Sand, Old Olive, Crushed Curry 
  • Tools: Stampin' Spritzer,  Old Olive Stampin' Write Marker
  • Stamping instructions:
    • Stamp sentiment in lower left corner with Sahara Sand.
    • Use Cajun Craze for small solid leaf, stamping off and spritzing before stamping.
    • Stamp large leaf with Cajun Craze, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie, lightly spritzing before stamping onto cardstock. 
    • Once all the leaves are stamped Old Olive Stampin' Writer to flick ink onto the card front.  I love a speckled card. 
    • All done.  An easy card for a Sunday. 




Tip:  My first attempt at this card just stamped the leaves and found them a bit boring.  Then I made a second card with the die cut leaves and that was a bit bold.  So the third card I made I spritzed the inked stamp and that was the result I like.  So if you want to give your stamped image a bolder look adding a little mist does the trick.





Colorful Seasons stamp set is timeless, along with the Seasonal Layers Dies it is a great addition to your crafting collection.  Be sure to put it in your cart today.

Today it is time for another International Blog Hop with a bunch of my card making friends.  Today it is all about the bird, the Free as a Bird stamp set and the Bird Ballad DSP.  I enjoy having birds in my yard at the feeders and water bath, so this is the perfect set for me.  In this part of Texas we have beautiful birds all year long. I just love their joyful noise.

Card Measurements:
Basic Gray card base 4 1/4" x 11", score and fold at 5 1/2",  3" x 3 1/2" (layer)
Calypso Coral layer 4" x 5 1/4",  3" x 3" (circle die cut)

Bird Ballad DSP  2" x 5 1/4" (strip) , 3" x 3 1/2" (layer)



TIP: Stamp the bird on Whisper White and die cut with a circle.  Die cut the same size circle in Calypso Coral and cut in half the adhere to back of the stamped Whisper White circle.

World Card Making Day - Come to Gather Thank-you!!


Welcome crafty friends!!  It is world Card Making Day and time for another Stamping with the Stars Inspiration Hop.  Today my card is a simple "no stamping" Thank-you card using the ever sooooo beautiful Come to Gather Designer Series Paper and the Thank-You die.

Card Measurement:
Sahara Sand card base 4 1/4" x 11", score and fold at 5 1/2"
Pretty Peacock layer 4 1/8" x 5 3/8"
Come to Gather DSP 4 1/16" x 5 5/16" 


Tip: Cut the two of the Thank-You Die, one in Pretty Peacock and a second in Sahara Sand.  Carefully glue them together using the Multipurpose Liquid Glue or the Fine Tip Glue Pen.  Tis gives the die cut more bulk and makes is stand out a bit more on the card front.




I hope you have enjoyed this card today, it will be featured in my next Coffee and Cards class on 17 October.  If you would to attend please contact me for details.
