Amber Autumn Birthday Greetings

Good morning,

We're back with another card using pieces that were already colored, just waiting for a home.  Today is the acorn piece from the Amber Autumn Bundle.

This card starts with Basic Beige cardstock for the cardbase and then a piece of Gathering Together Speciality Designer Series Paper as the cardfront which was matted with Crushed Curry Cardstock.  I added another piece of the DSP across the center as a belly band and matted it with Early Espresso cardstock.  Around this piece I did wrap some Old Olive Twine from the Early Espresso & Old Olive Linen Thread Pack and tied a bow.

The main stamped piece was stamped on Basic White cardstock and after coloring it in with Stampin' Blends cut it out using the coordinating Amber Autumn Dies before attaching with dimensionals.

The greeting is from the Coneflower Celebrations stamp set and was stamped in Cajun Craze ink on Basic Beige cardstock before cutting it out with the Stitched Rectangle Dies.  The final touch was to add a few Streaked Dots as accents.

This card is definitely leaning more towards the masculine side which is perfect since I have lots of guys in my life that I enjoy celebrating their special days!

30 Day Gratitude Challenge 2025: Day 23

Good morning,

I'm so excited I have a day jam packed with crafting goodness as I get ready for this years December Daily project and we have prep day, can't wait!  Before all that fun begins I did want to share today's gratitude card and decided to go for an everyday card.

For this card I started with Crumb Cake cardstock for the cardbase and then added a piece of DSP from the Country Woods Designer Series paper pack and matted with Basic Black cardstock.

I used the Coneflower Celebrations Bundle for all the stamping.  After stamping all the flower pieces and coloring them with my Stampin' Blends I used the coordinating dies to cut them out.

The greeting is from the same stamp set and was stamped directly on the DSP.  A bow tied with Linen Thread is the perfect accent!

I love how realistic this flower looks and it really pops against the wood background.

30 Day Gratitude Challenge 2025: Day 3

Good morning,

It was a wonderful weekend and the definitely feeling like we are in the holiday season, which I love.  For today's gratitude card I wanted to share a fun one that brings back fun summer memories which uses the Adventure Together Bundle.

I started with Summer Splash cardstock for the cardbase and then added a piece of Smoky Slate cardstock that was embossed with the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder.

I used the Adventure Together Bundle to stamp and cut out the camper, tree, firepit, and chair, all of which were colored with Stampin' Blends.  As a backdrop for this scene I cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock using the Spotlight on Nature Dies.  All the pieces were popped up with dimensionals.

To finish the card I added the greeting which is from the Coneflower Celebrations stamp set and was stamped in Melon Mambo ink on Basic White cardstock.

This card is so fun and cheery, it just makes me smile.
