Get your Fab on with these bright bold fall colours: Calypso Coral, Secret Sea and Pool Party. These paper is so darling with autumn images. It cut a piece of 3" x 4" into 3 equal vertical strips then pieced them back together onto Cajun Craze leaving a wee bit of space between the strips. I'm puzzling all the time! Wishing you a fabulous day!
Time for another Halloween card! This time using the Rounded Rectangle punch on various patterns from the Frightfully Fun patterned paper. Those cut kitties and ghosts have stolen my heart. Did you know you can die cut your own "puffy" greetings and images? I did this by adding a small piece of our Foam Adhesive Sheet to the back of Basic Black cardstock then ran it through the Stampin' Cut and Emboss machine to die cut out the "Boo" salutation. Works perfectly with nice cuts and the negative pieces pull right out. Boo to you!
Learned the Zig Zag Strip paper piecing technique by Heidi Collins over at On Y Go Stamping. All the strips are the same length, with varying heights. Add them to one side (in this case the bottom edge) and trim then add the leftovers to the opposite side (in this case the top edge). With that, I added a greeting, bow and embellishments to finish the card. Enjoy!
Catching up on some "thinking of you" cards and what better way to send one than with florals. To make a whole bunch of these, I used the Artisan Sketched Garden patterned paper: it's all black and white floral images just waiting for colour to bring them to life! I use my Stampin' Blends in coordinating Hydrangea Hue, Peaceful Pine and Golden Glow to keep with an autumn theme. How would you add colour to yours?
Like the distressed look? Pair our two-tone cardstock with the sanding blocks. Two-tone cardstock has a white core so that when you lightly sand it - especially a raised embossed layer - your card instantly has more dimension with the white showing through. I'm loving these Simply Leaves stamps with coordinating punch for quick fall or masculine cards. Enjoy!
