Amber Autumn - Grateful For You

Hello Stampers,
For today's card, I was looking to make a masculine looking card to go with the die-cut I started days ago. Do you have a hard time with masculine type cards like I do?

I found a card template from Jackie Bolhuis that I though would be a good layout for what I wanted. I started the card by stamping the acorn stamp from the Amber Autumn Stamp Set using Memento Black Ink onto Very Vanilla Cardstock, coloring it with Mossy Meadow, Pecan Pie & Early Espresso Stampin' Blends Combo Packs before die-cutting it out. I started building my card with a Very Vanilla Cardstock base followed by a layer of Autumn Toile DSP. The next 2 layers were Pecan Pie Cardstock that I stamped the acorn stamp all over using Early Espresso Ink, then layered it on top of a Mossy Meadow Cardstock layer. For the circle, I used Early Espresso Cardstock with the 2 3/8" Circle Punch before embossing it with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder, then layering my die-cut piece on top of that. For the sentiment, I used one from the set stamping it on Very Vanilla Cardstock with Early Espresso Ink then using Stampin' Dimensionals to pop it off the card. Finally, I finished the card using Neutral Sequins.

Amber Autumn - Autumn Wishes again

Hello Stampers,
I had to play around with Amber Autumn bundle again for today's card. I'm so ready for fall & ready to put the triple digits to rest for this year.

I used the Amber Autumn Dies which has a background die in it & used the 2025-27 In Color DSP (Timid Tiger) then added it to a Timid Tiger Cardstock layer. The one thing I always seem to forget when using the intricate dies is to add the Adhesive Sheets to the back, this time was no different.
This layer was then added to a Basic White Cardstock base. I used the Amber Autumn Stamp Set to stamp the pumpkins onto Basic White Cardstock using Memento Black Ink then coloring with Timid Tiger, Darling Duckling, Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, Mossy Meadow, Cajun Craze, Blackberry Bliss & the retired Wild Wheat Stampin' Blends Combo Packs. For the sentiment, I used the Timid Tiger Ink Pad to stamp onto Basic White Cardstock, then used the Modern Oval Punch. I added a few Delightful Decorative Dots to finish the card.

Amber Autumn - Autumn Wishes

Hello Stampers,
Today's card is a fun fold card featuring a stamp set & DSP that goes live tomorrow. Our weather is being kind to us this week & staying below the triple digits so hopefully, yesterday was the last day of those.

I started with a card front layer of Early Espresso Cardstock, then added 2 strips of Autumn Toile DSP to each side before adding the middle piece that makes it a fun fold. For the middle, I added another piece of the DSP before adding the focal point from the Amber Autumn Stamp Set that was stamped onto Gray Granite Cardstock using Early Espresso Ink, then colored in used Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, Pecan Pie & Darling Duckling Stampin' Blends Combo Packs before I die-cut it using the Amber Autumn Dies. The sentiment was also stamped onto Gray Granite Cardstock & stamped with Early Espresso Ink, before being popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals. I added a few Neutral Sequins to finish the front of the card.


For the inside, I stamped another of the sentiments in the set using Early Espresso Ink with Gray Granite Cardstock, then added a piece of the DSP to the bottom to finish the card.

Thankful Garden - You Make A Difference

Hello Stampers,
Today's card was inspired by this week's Just Us Girls challenge #790 using stencils. I don't tend to use these a lot, because they are tucked away & usually forgotten so thought this would be a great time to brush the dust off & make a card with one of the stencils.

I started with a Basic White Cardstock layer, then used the Thankful Garden Decorative Masks along with the Blending Brushes to add Bubble Bath, Fresh Freesia, Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist & Old Olive Inks layer by layer. This was then added to a layer of Berry Burst Cardstock before attaching it to a Bubble Bath Cardstock base. I used the Berry Burst Ink Pad to stamp one of the sentiments in the Thankful Garden Stamp Set to Fresh Freesia Cardstock, cut banner ends on both sides then used Stampin' Dimensionals to add it to the card. Lastly, I added a few Purple Sequins (Fresh Freesia) to add a bit of bling to finish the card.
