Can you believe the change in the weather. I guess I'm going to have to retire my summer clothes. It hardly seems like I've worn them much this year. Oh well, there's more time for stamping.
The card above is one we will be doing in one of my clubs in September. I love the autumn colors. I was inspired by a card similar by Jennifer Weide to make this card. This is the new French Foliage Set from the Holiday Mini catalog. The cardstock is Cherry Cobbler, (yummy), early espresso, and very vanilla. Ink: More Mustard, Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso and Old Olive. I cut the oval from the Big Shot die, Frame Oval Scallop, and took the oval out and used it to mask off the center. I sponged crumb cake around the masking and then took it off. Then stamped the leaves and the sentiment in the center. This was a quick and easy card to make.
Another card we will be doing this month is from a splitcoast stampers idea. This one is done with the "Just Believe" stamp set. Both these cards are very simple but oh so pretty.
I used the oval from the above card to mask this one off as well. I sponged More Mustard and the bottom with Old Olive. The masking was removed and the image was stamped with Early Espresso. An 5/8" Old Olive Satin ribbon was wrapped around the top piece and topped with a border made from the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch out of Early Espresso Cardstock. The butterflys were cut out of a scrap of More Mustard with the "Beautiful Wings" die and ran through the Big Shot. I don't think there is a day that goes by that I don't use my Big Shot. I love, love, love it!!!
