Welcome Fall

Hi Everyone;

I can’t wait for Fall to come.  It is one of my favourite seasons, and it is colourful with the leaves changing colours, the abundance of pumpkins, Thanksgiving and Halloween.

For today’s card, I have used the Wagon Full of Blessings from High Hopes Stamps.  This is a CAS card.  A small piece of Design Paper was used, so that there would be room to add some stenciling on the Kraft cardstock.  I used Nuvo Embellishment Mousse in Orange Blush and Inka Gold in Jade to add colour to The Autumn Delight Stickable Stencil from BoBunny.  When I opened the Inka Gold, it had harden over time, so I spritz some water on it which made it usable again. The same can be done with the Nuvo Embellishment Mousse.

The image was coloured with Copic Markers, and some ribbon and enamel dots were added to finish it off.

Supplies used:

  • Stamps:  Wagon Full of Blessings, Welcome Fall (High Hopes Stamps)
  • Ink:  Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black

Leaves are Falling….Autumn’s Calling

Welcome Everyone;

Now that summer is half over, this means that the start of school and fall is just around the corner.  Fall is my second favourite season.  There is something about seeing all the harvests as well as the leaves changing their colours.  Tommy’s Fall Fun reminds me of the times when I would kick the  leaves around as a child.

After stamping the image, I coloured Tommy with Copic Markers.  The sentiment came from a piece of design paper that I have. Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens were used to add some glitter to the leaves on the design paper.

Merry Christmas

Welcome OCS and HH Fans;

I really like it when a stamp can be used in more than one way.  For today’s post, I have not just one card, but two using the Three Pane Christmas  stamp from High Hopes Stamps.  Polar White Flower Soft was added to Santa’s hat.

The first card is a CAS layout.  After the image was stamped, I coloured it with Copic Markers.

The second card, is a completely different layout. I ran the Holiday Magic Embossing Folder through my die cutting machine before adding silver foil using the GoPress Machine.  It was cut at an angle and a piece was added to the top and bottom.  The bottom half doesn’t show up well in the photo.

Supplies used:

  • Stamps:  Three Pane Christmas, Merry Christmas (High Hopes Stamps)

‘Twas the Night Before Christmas!

Welcome OCS and HH Fans;

As we are halfway through the year, now is the time to get a start on Christmas cards.  The Design Teams Divas on the High Hopes and One Crazy Stamper Blogs will be sharing “Christmas in July” inspiration to you all month!

For my first Christmas card, I used this cute stamp called Here Comes Santa from High Hopes Stamps.  It is a CAS card as the design paper was a perfect match for it.  The paper is from  Echo Park’s ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas which was released last year, which I thought matched perfectly.  It is also my favourite Christmas poem.

I coloured the image with  copic markers and used some Prismacolor pencils to add some shading.

The image was fuzzy cut and three light bulbs were added as embellishments.  Nuvo’s Snow Glow Sparkle Dust was used to add some glitter to Santa.  The Sparkle & Cheer sentiment was added to the inside of the card.
