09.21.2024…..Happy Saturday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I’m sharing a card that I created for this month’s Stampin’ Fancy Friday challenge! It’s an “Earthy Tones” challenge! Our team members each created a fancy card or project using earthy colors! It could be an Autumn inspired, new twist on Christmas, masculine themed, etc.
I love everything about Autumn, so I was super excited about this Earth Tones Challenge. To create the leaves, I used Blending Brushes to add Copper Clay and Wild Wheat to Basic White Thick Cardstock. I then splattered water droplets with a Water Painter, added some speckling, and cut them out with one of the Autumn Leaves Dies. For the eucalyptus, I used the same technique, along with Pecan Pie, Pebbled Path, and one of the Textured Florals Dies. I also used the Citrus Blooms Dies, Timber 3D Embossing Folder, Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems, and Country Woods DSP.
Be sure to join us to see what our Stampin’ Fancy Friday team created. We have a total of 24 amazing projects to share this month, and each using their own unique interpretation of the challenge!

09.20.2024…..Happy Friday, my stampin’ friends! It’s already time for another TGIF Challenge! We are so glad you are joining us this week’s theme challenge…..Sweater Weather! Theme challenges are one of my faves, and are always a great way to get that creativity flowing.
Our “Sweater Weather” theme inspired me to create this cozy card, using the More Than Autumn Bundle. Apple cider and apple picking always reminds me of fall, so this bundle was just perfect to use for this card.
Hope this card inspires you to create a colorful, cozy card using this week’s challenge!
09.15.2024…..Happy Monday, my stampin’ friends! For our Stamping Sunday Blog Hop this month, it is all about fun folds…..be it simple or avid card. This theme was such a great source of inspiration for me, and I hope it is for all of you, too!
For my card, I decided to create a diagonal Z-fold card (with a pocket for a gift card and/or note) using Basic White Thick Cardstock base. The background for each of the panels was created with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper. I also used the Flowers of Beauty Dies, Unbounded Love Dies, Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder, Linen Thread, Tinsel Gems Three-Pack, and Tinsel Gems Four-Pack.
