#GDP261: Fall Friendship Card

Today's card was inspired by the color challenge at Global Design Project this week.

I used the Love of Leaves Bundle and a few supporting products to create my card. This bundle caught my eye right away because of the stitching. Stitched dies are my favorite!

 

All of the details on this card really make it special:

• A watercolor wash in Mint Macaron ink, with a few speckles of Cajun Craze
• A sprinkling of the Artistry Blooms Sequins
• A leaf from the In Good Taste Elements
• A piece of Embroidered Ribbon

I just love how all of Stampin' Up!'s products coordinate so well together!

 

Here is a full list of supplies:

Stamps: Love of Leaves

Ink: Cajun Craze, Mint Macaron

Paper: Mint Macaron, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White, Shimmery White

Embellishments: Artistry Blooms Sequins, In Good Taste Elements, 3/8" Embroidered Ribbon

Happy Stamping!

Beautiful Autumn Card & Card Club Sneak Peek

Hello! Did you have a good Labor Day weekend? My kids had both Friday and Monday off of school, and we worked on building furniture (new beds for the boys) and moving things around so that eventually my 2-year-old can move into the toddler bed and out of her crib. We're procrastinating on that step and if you've ever had a toddler you know how fun (or not!) it is to keep them in a bed they can climb right out of! 

I have a new card to share with you today. I wasn't able to get much crafting done over the weekend, but this card was brewing in my mind and so it went together quickly this afternoon.

 

 

I used the Beautiful Autumn Bundle, the Gilded Autumn Specialty DSP, and a few embellishments from the Annual Catalog. I fussy cut some of the gold and copper leaves from the paper - isn't it pretty?

 

If you like this card, you may also like my monthly card club kit this month. I am featuring the same bundle and paper, and you'll create a set of pretty notecards. 

 

If you're interested in the club, you can find out more and sign up here.

#tgifc269: Wildly Grateful

Today's card was inspired by the challenge over at TGIF Challenges, as well as a sample in the catalog. Here's the challenge:

And here's the catalog sample:

Want to see my take on it?

I stamped images from the Lovely You stamp set in Night of Navy, Gray Granite, Mango Melody, and Petal Pink ink to make my background paper. A few extra elements finished off the card:

• Elegant Faceted Gems
• Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack (gold thread)
• In Good Taste Elements

I just love all the coordination that Stampin' Up! provides - don't you think the In Good Taste Elements match up perfectly with the images in the Lovely You stamp set?

Ink: Night of Navy, Gray Granite, Mango Melody, Petal Pink
Paper: Gray Granite, Night of Navy, Whisper White, Petal Pink
