Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Color Challenge Week 43 - Petal Pink

Welcome to week 43 of the Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Color Challenge. It's hard to believe we only have a few more weeks left with just a handful of colors to complete the challenge. This week we are showcasing Petal Pink, one of my favorite pinks and one that I use a lot for so many occasions. I hope that my card design will help inspire you to give Petal Pink a second look and maybe you will love it as much as I do.

For this week's card design, I wanted to create a Fall themed design with a bit of a twist. Petal Pink has a slightly orange tint to it which works well for this season and I thought it was a softer tone than the usual Pumpkin Pie that we often associate with Fall. I love hot cocoa and I thought it would be perfect to use for my card design. For this card design, I paired the new More Than Autumn Bundle with the Country Lace Designer Series Paper to create a yummy card that shows just how much I love the recipient of this card.

More Than Autumn Bundle (item #164076)

Stylish Shapes Dies (item #159183)

Country Lace Designer Series Paper (item #163415)

Small Heart die cut with the More Than Autumn Dies

Pecan Pie Cardstock

Hot Cocoa die cut with the More Than Autumn Dies

Basic White Cardstock

Card Front - 5" x 3 3/4"

For today's card design, I chose to pair Petal Pink with Pecan Pie to create a warm, welcoming design. I thought that Pecan Pie was the perfect color to represent hot cocoa and used the Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends Combo Pack to color the cup image to give it that rich cocoa feel. Instead of stamped the hot cocoa sentiment, I chose to use the detailed dies from the More Than Autumn Bundle to die cut the sentiment from Pecan Pie cardstock and I love the way it pops on the Petal Pink designer series paper. I wanted to keep the layer out pretty simple and let the focal image and sentiments tell the story. I love the subtle texture that the designer series paper adds to the background without being overwhelming. To complete the card design, I added two of the Adhesive Backed Swirl Dots, that just happen to be Petal Pink, for a subtle touch of bling. For some people, Pumpkin Spice Lattes are there thing, but for me it is Hot Cocoa all the way. So whoever receives this beautiful card, they will know just how much I love them.

Ink. Stamp. Share. August Monthly Blog Hop July-December 2021 Mini Catalog

Welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Monthly Blog Hop and this month we are showcasing products from the new July-December 2021 Mini Catalog. You will be visiting with talented Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as they share their ideas and projects to help inspire you. There are so many amazing new products to help you get ready for the upcoming seasons and holidays.

The July-December 2021 Mini Catalog is one of my favorites because it is full of wonderful products to help us create for the holidays and the upcoming Autumn and Winter seasons. Soon the leaves will be changing here in Colorado and I love the warm, earthy colors of Fall. Today I am sharing this beautiful Fall themed card featuring the Gorgeous Leaves Bundle paired with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder, which adds amazing texture to the background. While I created this card design with Thanksgiving in mind, it could be used for a variety of occasions and would make a great masculine card design.

The secret to this Fall card is the texture and layers that help to build the design. I used the new Timber 3D Embossing Folder from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog to add texture to the Cinnamon Cider card front layer and attached it to the Soft Suede card base. For the Very Vanilla scalloped rectangle, I stamped the background using the large and small dotty background images. I used Cinnamon Cider Classic ink for the large image in the center and then layered the smaller image with Pear Pizzazz and Soft Suede Classic inks to create a colorful background design. I stamped the sentiment from the Through It Together stamp set with Soft Suede Classic ink, towards to the bottom of the rectangle. I attached the scalloped rectangle to the center of the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals. To create the focal design, I attached a piece of the Fine Art Ribbon to the scalloped rectangle, in a zig zag pattern, over the stamped background. I added the three leaves on top of the ribbon, layering them so that the stems intertwined at the base. I added a small bow created with Linen Thread to the base of the stems with a Mini Glue Dot. Despite all the layering, this card design is relatively flat and is suitable for mailing without extra postage. I love how this card design captures the feeling of Autumn.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I hope that my card design will help inspire you to create your own beautiful Fall projects to welcome the new season. There are so many wonderful options to explore in the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog.

The Joy Of Sets October Blog Hop Harvest Time

It's time to hop along with The Joy Of Sets October Blog Hop as we showcase Harvest Time for this month's theme. We will be sharing ideas and projects to inspire you to create your own Autumn and Harvest themed projects to celebrate the new season.

When I think of Fall I think the changing leaves and fields of pumpkins that are common here in Colorado at this time of year. I decided to create a card design that reflected both of these things using the beautiful Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper combined with the Beautiful Autumn stamp set, both from the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog. I love the Gold Foil detail in this pretty paper and the warm colors that are perfect for this season.

Products Used:

Beautiful Autumn stamp set

Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper

Brushed Metallic cardstock

Cajun Craze cardstock

Very Vanilla cardstock

Layering Circles Dies

Gathered Leaves Dies

Gold Glitter Enamel Dots

Gold Embossing Powder

Measurements:

Cajun Craze cardstock card base - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"

(Scored 4 1/4")

Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper layer

5 1/4" x 4"

Very Vanilla cardstock for Circle die cut

Brushed Metallic cardstock (gold)

for Circle die cut and detailed leaf die cut

This card design is simple to create but has a beautiful, elegant look to it. The Brushed Metallic cardstock coordinates with the foil details in the background paper and really steps up the design. The detailed leaf was die cut with one of the leaf dies from the Gathered Leaves Dies and I die cut it from the center of the Brushed Metallic cardstock circle to save on cardstock. The sentiment is from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set and has been heat embossed with Gold Embossing Powder to coordinate with the rest of the design. I added small Gold Glitter Enamel Dots to add a touch of bling without overwhelming the card design.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. I hope that my card design inspires you to create your own wonderful projects to celebrate the season using designer series paper. It is a wonderful way to create beautiful cards quickly and simply.
