I stamped the sentiment onto the front panel of the card. Lastly, I punched out small flowers in yellow cardstock, added white dots in the center, and...

Hello everyone! Today, I am sharing an Autumn card with the cutest critters at the pumpkin patch. I wanted to use non-traditional fall colors and I'm so happy that it worked out for this card. I hope you like it! To create my card, I started by cutting a 5" square panel that I ink blended with Peacock Feathers and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Inks. I sprayed with water for an oxidized effect and added white dots here and there with a white gel pen. I also cut a 4.5" square and ink blended Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Ink through the Leaves Background Stencil . Next, I cut the ornate die from the Fall Circles Coordinating Die in kraft cardstock and ink blended the bottom with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Ink. The images are from a previously released set, Pumpkin Patch Critters Stamp Set . I stamped them with Memento Rich Cocoa ink on 110lb white cardstock and colored them with Copic markers .

Hello friends! I got to play with the Penguin Agenda Stamps by Penguin Palace and I have a box card to share with you all.  To begin, I assembled the My Favorite Things Outside the Box Level Up .

Hello crafty friends!  I have a square-shaped birthday card using Heffy Doodle products. It’s a simple design and easy to recreate. To begin, I cut a 5” blue cardstock and a 4.5” white cardstock. I adhered the white panel on the larger panel, using the Heffy Doodle Glubert . I wanted one more layer, so I cut a 4” white cardstock. I then ink blended Mustard Seed , Kitsch Flamingo , and Faded Jeans Distress Oxide Inks through the Lots of Happy Stencils .  For dimension, I foam mounted this panel to the white and blue cardstock.  Next, I cut the Happy Birthday Shadow Heffy Cuts using vellum for the shadow die and gray cardstock for the script. To adhere to the panel, I turned the script die over and used the words as a guide for the glue.  Lastly, for the card base, I cut a 5” square , scored at the .25” mark and adhered the flap to the panel.  That’s all for this birthday card. I hope you enjoyed today’s card share. Thanks for stopping by!
