Celebrate with Pumpkins and Sunflowers

 

I made a couple of these to use as fall birthday cards.  This is the free mini stamp set we got for participating in the Sept swap at Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co.  I may make a few more of these, but I don't have any more pumpkin charms.  Maybe I can substitute a pumpkin button...that might be cute. 

Here's the details for the card:

Stamps:  Pumpkins and Sunflowers, Birthday mini stamp set (sentiment)
Paper:  Snow Storm Smooth, Dark Chocolate Bar by MFP, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie
Ink:  Momento Tuxedo Black, Old Olive
Misc:  Embossing Folder, Pumpkin Charm, Ribbon, Spectrum Noir Pens

I hope you're having a wonderful weekend!  Thanks so much for stopping by. 

Happy Stamping!

Speedy Fox & Friends Blog Challenge

Our blog challenge for you this week is to use pumpkins on your card.  I not only have pumpkins in my image, but I had this wonderful pumpkin charm that I found in my stash!  I used the "Autumn Glory" stamp set again this week by Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co. I used 2 different ribbons on my card today too.  I had some really pretty orange sheer ribbon, and put the 1/4" grossgrain ribbon on top of it.  I like the way it came out. 

Stamps:  Autumn Glory
Paper:  Corn Husk, Orange from my stash, DSP
Ink:  Soft Suede
Misc:  Copies, nesties, ribbon, charm

I hope that you will play along with us this week.  Have a wonderful day!

A Friendly Snowman and Falling Leaves

Yesterday's Inspiration Challenge site over on SCS was Pier One Imports.  There was so much inspiration to be found there!!!!  My first card is my cute little snow fellow from Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co.  I really love this stamp set.  I'm going to use it for some of my open house invitations.  Here's the details:

Stamps:  Snow Gifts
Paper:  Snow Storm Smooth, Aged Berry, Imaginisce "Christmas Cottage" paper pad
Ink:  Palette Noir Black
Misc:  Copics, ribbon, snowman charm, star stick pin

For my 2nd card, I used my Art Philosophy cartridge and the leaf stamp from the stamp set "Celebrations" from Close to My Heart.  I love how this card turned out.  I made more of them to use for my masculine birthday cards next month.  I used VersaMark ink to stamp my background, then cut out the leaves and stamped them. 

Stamps:  Celebrations
Paper:  from my stash
Ink:  Tangerine Tango, So Saffron, Garden Green, VersaMark
Misc:  Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend.  It's been glorious here in Northern Virginia! 

My dear MIL comes today, so I don't know how much I'll get to post for the next week.

Happy Stamping!
