#TGIFC491: Sweater Weather

This week's challenge at TGIF Challenges is a theme challenge, perfect for the first week of fall!

 

I've paired a number of different products for my card this week - most notably the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder to mimic a sweater in the background, and the Autumn Leaves Dies to create falling leaves on my card.

 

I've also used our brand new Two Tone Cardstock. This cardstock is a lighter weight than our regular cardstock, and it is printed rather than dyed so the center is white when you tear it. One side is the regular shade of the color, and the opposite side is a slightly lighter shade. I've used Pool Party and Pumpkin Pie and die cut my leaves in both shades to add more interest to my card.

 

Here is a full list of products used on this card:

Stamps: Courage & Faith

Ink: Cajun Craze, Pool Party

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Cajun Craze, Two Tone Pool Party, Two Tone Pumpkin Pie, Halloween Spells DSP

Embellishments: Earth Tones Shimmer Gems, Natural Tones Linen Thread

Tools: Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder, Nested Essentials Dies, Autumn Leaves Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

Adhesives: Stampin' Seal+, Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots, Multipurpose Liquid Glue

 

Happy Stamping!

#TGIFC434: Give Thanks

There is a theme challenge at TGIF Challenges this week. Isn't this some pretty inspiration?

I pulled out some colors I saw in this graphic - Calypso Coral, Petal Pink, and Lost Lagoon - and paired them with the Courage & Faith stamp set. I also used the Nested Essentials Dies, along with the sentiment to fit the 'thanks' theme.

 

The Nested Essentials Dies coordinate so well with this stamp set! Several of the sentiments fit in this shape, and it's perfect if you're wanting a vertical sentiment. 

 

Here is a full list of products used on my card:

Stamps: Courage & Faith

Ink: Memento Black, Lost Lagoon

Stampin' Blends Markers: Calypso Coral, Petal Pink, Lost Lagoon

Paper: Lost Lagoon, Petal Pink, Basic White, Calypso Coral

Embellishments: Lost Lagoon 1/4" Bordered Ribbon, Baker's Twine Essentials Pack, Ombre Matte Decorative Dots

Tools: Versamark, Basics Embossing Powders, Heat Tool, Nested Essentials Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
