Stamping With Friends September Blog Hop Blogger's Choice - Annual Catalog

Welcome to the Stamping With Friends September Blog Hop as we explore the wonderful products in the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog with a Blogger's Choice theme. We will be sharing our projects and ideas to help inspire you to create your own beautiful projects with these amazing products.

Summer is almost over and we begin the transition to a new season. For my card design today, I wanted to create a card that showcased the beautiful Nature's Harvest stamp set and coordinating Harvest Dies, to create a design that shows that transition into Fall. The colors I chose to use are Old Olive, Cajun Craze and Whisper White and I added texture using the Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder to add a rustic feel to the design. The background paper is a design from the Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper, which is a Host Reward you can earn for Free with a qualifying order or party. This design works well for a variety of occasions and by changing the color combination, you can personalize the look and feel of the card.

This pretty card design is a wonderful combination of color and texture and I love how it all came together. For the background, I used a piece of the Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper to add some contrast and texture to the design. The Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder was used to add texture to the tags and the side panel on the card front and I added Pear Pizzazz Classic ink to the embossed Basic White tag to give it some soft color using a Sponge Dauber. For the Old Olive side panel, I sponged the embossed areas with Old Olive Classic ink to bring out the texture and add dimension to the design. The tags were tied together using a piece of the Gold Satin Edged Ribbon and the Party Parakeet Metallic Woven Ribbon to step up the card design. The floral image was colored with Stampin' Blends Markers and die cut with the Harvest Dies. For a touch of bling, I added Gold Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots to finish off the design.
