Pumpkin Girl

Today I made two cards that feature a Pumpkin girl from the stamp set, Seasons of Fun, a set from a few years ago.  For Halloween this year, my g-baby will be dressing up like a pumpkin and I wanted to send her a fun Halloween card.

For this card, I used Copper Clay for the background cardstock and added some All About Autumn designer papers to it.  These papers have been out of stock for a while and I wish that had ordered more at the beginning of the season!  I just love them so much.  

I added the little Pumpkin girl, colored her in using Stamping Blends and Wink of Stella to make her shine.  I added the little dog from Seasons of Fun and some cut-out leaves for embellishment.  The saying is from Pick of the Patch stamp set, in the current Mini Catalog.  I think she looks so sweet skating across this card. :)

For my next card, I started with Pumpkin Pie cardstock and added a designer sheet from Let's Go Fishing papers.  I liked the addition of the new color, Pebbled Path and I cut out a couple of tags using the same two colors.  

This time, I cut out the image of the Pumpkin girl and added Happy Halloween and a little pumpkin from the Pick of the Patch set.  

Which of the two cards do you like best?  I had fun playing with some fall stamps and papers today.

All About Autumn


 In this week's Stamp Class, I used the fall papers from All About Autumn.  They are so rich in color and so pretty featuring beautiful photos and gold-trimmed papers.  For this first card, I copied the idea from Mary Knabe.  I like the way the designer paper is sliced for the look of this card.  I added some rainbow trim die cuts in gold to add a bit more pizazz to the card.  I used gold sequin ribbon for the bow.

For the second card, I copied the idea from Mary Witt from Pinterest.  I love how the paper is cut into a circle for just a peak of the fall papers.  I added burlap ribbon and some leaf cut outs from Colorful Season dies.  The new Distressed Tile embossing folder is featured on the front layer.

This is the first time that I've used these new colors - Pecan Pie and Copper Clay.  I love their rich tones.  

For this Moody Mauve card, I cut 3 sheets of designer paper to make the collage background.  I found this card idea from Pattystamps.  The saying is from Painted Harvest, a set from a couple of years sgo.

And, last, but not least is this sweet little card that features a bird from Bird's Eye View set.  Doesn't he look great sitting on the bookshelf?  I want to give this card to a friend of mine who lends me books to read.  :)  I got this idea from Susan Molly.

When I ordered this paper, I didn't notice that it comes in 6" squares, so not enough paper to present an entire class.  I am waiting for it to come back in stock so that I can order some more!  It's great fall paper for your crafting needs.
