I’m ready for some fall weather, so making some fall cards will bring it on! I’m really liking the look of the Buffalo Check background. Thinking of how many different ways I’m going to be able to use this. The Halloween card was easily changed into a thinking of you card by flipping the DSP over and adding different embellishments.
This month we’ll be doing cards using some cute new sets from the new catalog. Two of the cards are from the Animal Outing set, which is so darn cute! I almost did the whole class using only stamps from this set because I am loving it so much! The other two cards have options for greetings and are simple one or two color cards to make using the Pressed Flowers and Accented Blooms stamp sets.
We used the stamparatus to make sure everything was lined up for this card. It sure makes it easy! The skirt was stamped and fussy cut and then layered onto the image. Any sentiment could be used as it is stamped separately. Also a great card to use up some of that DSP you have been hanging onto!
Paper: Rich Razzleberry, Blooms and Bliss DSP (retired), Whisper White

This easy to make card could be used as a sympathy or thank you card. You could also change the sentiment to use for most any occasion. This is just one of the stamps in the new Rooted In Nature set that I think will become one of my all-time favorite sets!

Trying out some new stamps and using the Stamparatus this month.
Although I have been stamping about 16 years, I am just getting started with posts of cards and projects that I am working on. Most will be samples I am using in my monthly card classes, but I'll be putting in some techniques and tips also. Although I like to do my own creating, I am always looking for new ideas for my cards and some of the ones you find here have been cased. I thank you for all of your inspiration and I hope you also find some inspiration here.
