Sparkle of the Season Thanksgiving

I love wreaths- I have a box of stamps and dies devoted to just wreaths.  

Basecard is pumpkin pie with a layer of  Soft Suede embossed with timber EF. the piece of green strip on the right is from Pattern Party DSP from the hostess purchase.  

The wreath was diecut in white and I colored it in with crumbcake stampin blends and so saffron, pear pizazz and pumpkin pie- then I cut some more leaves using pumpkin pie, old olive and saffron cardstock and added them on here and there. I took a strip of cumbcake Cardstock stip and stamped Grateful in Soft suede . This was an easy card I made as thank yous to my customers.

happy Thanksgiving everyone!

 

Merriest Moments easy class card.

 This was one of the cards we made for Stampin' with Lynda this month- base card is Thick basic white embossed with Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing folder.  I stamped a bunch of leaves from the Merriest Moments set using Mossy meadows and the flower with Poppy parade. Sentiment from the same set.

Mount the leaves with glue and dimensionals and flowers with dimensionals and a simple Christmas card in no time. 

My Favorite Nuts about Squirrel card I made

This is my favorite of all my Nuts about Squirrel card.

The bark embossing folder is so perfect  to create that tree look I had to use it on the early expresso CS. Then I used the timber folder with Crumbcake CS to create the wood grain on the inside of the hole.

the hole was created using the Layering diorama die but I placed the cutting plate on top part of the die to just shy of the bottom so it would not cut the bottom part because I wanted a flat straight bottom.

I stamped a gazillion acorns but they have the squirrel hand on it I cut the acorns out and rotated them when I put them in the tree so the hand part 

would be hidden - I forgot about the acorn punch in the autumn punch pak otherwise I would have used it. 

hand cut some leaves colored with pear pizazz and pumpkin pie, old olive.

Does he not look satisfied with all the acorns he has amassed for the winter?

Enjoy!

 

Another Nuts about Squirrel card with timber embossing folder

 alright- just one more - basecard is Old Olive with a layer of white embossed with timber EF - I stamped the branch and leaves after and was afraid it would not stamp but it did fine- rolled the leaves in pear pizazz then in pumpkin pie to get the varigated colors on the leaves.  the bottom squirrel I sort of missed the lining up so it was a little off but I colored it in and on a quick look hard to tell.  (Don't look too close!) The paper is from the Pattern Party DSP hostess pack that I colored in with a little watercolor brush using the color from the ink pad lid to create a really soft look.
