Sheltering Tree - Stampin' Up!

Sheltering Tree is a versatile stamp set that can be adapted for any season.  Here it is in the fall colours of Cajun Craze and Delightful Dijon.  The gorgeous Dotted Lace Trim was used for an accent.

This was actually the first one I did using the Very Vanilla Satin Ribbon.  The Striped Satin Ribbon was the intended ribbon but I did not have any.

Here's a view of the inside.

Flower Shop - And 15% off Stamps Sale - Stampin' Up!

The warm weather seems to be behind us, but today is a bright, beautiful, sunny day!  So this cheerful card seems a perfect fit for today.

I needed a quick and easy card because I had to make multiples.  This one fit the bill.  I used the still current Flower Shop and Six-Sided Sampler stamp sets with the retired Quatrafancy Designer Series Paper.

Added a partial stamped image to tie the front and inside together.  The centre of my flowers are the White Perfect Accents.  I had a stash of the little green leaves from a project I did several years ago, which made the card some together quickly.

Made 17 of these cards!

Tin of Cards with Autumn Traditions - Stampin' Up!

There is only a little bit of stamping on this card and it is the little doodling line and the sentiment.  That's it!  They are both from the Tin of Cards which has a project kit and the co-ordinating stamp set to go with it.

Now, my Designer Series Paper is called Autumn Traditions and it is retired.  The green strip is the reverse side of this sheet of paper.  I do love when I can use up some old "not current" product.  The Wisteria Wonder Baker's Twine is also retired.

Credit:  I CASED this card from Mary Fish.  The design and stamp set are the same; I changed the colours and paper.

I was making multiples so I wanted to keep it simple with just the addition of the "doodle" on the inside.  I think I am going to try and remember this design for future pieces of paper that could be considered the focal point.

I think it's a very sweet card and suitable for September!

Below are the current products that I used on this card, along with the Tin of Cards project kit.

Woodland Embossing Folder - Stampin' Up!

Such a lovely embossing folder!  This card was created by using Heat & Stick Embossing Powder and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.  I originally used a Christmas sentiment but wanted to make one also into a winter birthday card.

This folder has been used with fall colours as well as beautiful winter scenes.  It is certainly an especially popular folder...you won't regret getting this one!

Credit:  This card was CASED from Jenny Day.  Such a fun technique Jenny!

Summer Silhouettes - Stampin' Up!

Thought I would turn Summer Silhouettes into Fall Silhouettes by using Tangerine Tango.  My background is made with Versa Mark Ink and the (retired) Sanded Background stamp.  My bow is also retired copper chord.

The sentiment is from Six-Sided Sampler.

I added just a little bit of stamping to the left corner of the inside of the card to finish it off.

Credit:  The focal image is inspired/cased from a card by Dawn Olchefske.  I just changed the colour, layout/design.  

Thanks so much for stamping by!

  Here are the current products I used to create this card.  Six-Sided Sampler isn't included in the list below because I forgot to add it and don't know how to edit the list!

Remarkable You - Stampin' Up!

Remarkable You - this set comes in a two set package with 6 wonderful large images!  Four are graphic and two are sentiments.  My flower was stamped with Staz On ink onto Shimmery White card stock and coloured with an aqua painter and Watermelon Wonder Ink.

I used the new Thick Whisper White card stock as my base.  No need for layering to give stability.  The front woodgrain accent on the front of the card is the from Color Me Irrisistible Specialty Designer Series Paper.  I used the Watermelon Wonder ink with a sponge to give it colour and then cut off a thin strip to use on the inside.

This photo shows the inside a litter better.

I used the circle dies to mount the flower on and one of the splatter images for Gorgeous Grunge as a little bit of background accent.

My card was inspired by another demo's card!!  (However, when I went to find my inspiration I couldn't find it).  So, here is a shout out to all the demos that share their ideas.
