Sneak Peek - "Into the Woods" DSP Card 5 With "Lighthearted Leaves"

Oops, looks like I forgot to publish this post. I scheduled it for yesterday, but didn't click the correct command.

Yesterday I mentioned that a friend requested that I make a certain card that she really liked on Pinterest. She is not a crafter, but came across this card on one of her searches, and really liked this card created by Sandi MacIver.

I don't have my Old Olive Stampin' Write marker yet, so I had to go with Mossy Meadow. The dotted paper is from "Into the Woods" which I sponged with Old Olive. I love the black accent as it really complements the Pool Party and Old Olive colours.

For the inside I sponged some Old Olive and stamped & coloured the leaf.

So now my friend has the card she wanted. I may make a second one for myself.

Happy stamping!

Sneak Peek - Into the Woods DSP Card 4 With "Lighthearted Leaves"

It's kind of funny how sometimes when you make a card you really like how it turned out, and then a couple days later you're wondering what you were thinking when you made it and told yourself you liked it! Well that's what has happened with this card for me. Today I'm thinking it's a little on the busy side. Oh Well, I'm showing it to you any way.

I do love the hand painted "Into the Woods" DSP, and I do love the stamp set "Lighthearted Leaves". I think I just didn't work it together very well.

I do like the offset part on the card, and isn't that sentiment lovely?

I added to the leaves a piece I fussy cut from one of the DSP patterns.

The only thing I popped up is the 2" punched circle sentiment piece.

For the inside, I just added a strip of the DSP at the bottom.

Thank you for stopping by to check out the Autumn themed cards. I have one more to show you tomorrow. It's not Autumn coloured, but does use the same DSP and stamp set. I also made at request of one of my customers. So check it out and find out more about it and the request.

Happy stamping everyone!

Sneak Peek - Into the Woods DSP Card 3

Whoops! I accidentally deleted the original post! Never done that before. So now I have to try and remember what I wrote before...

For this card I once again used the "Into the Woods"DSP  and the stamp set "Lighthearted Leaves" from the 2015 Holiday Catalogue that will be out on September 1st. The "Lighthearted Leaves" also coordinated with the "Vintage Leaves" Framelit Dies from the current annual catalogue!(which comes in a bundle and is on my wish list)

I really like the sentiments on this stamp set and look forward to using them a lot. Since I don't have the Framelits yet I had to cut the leaves out by hand.

Below you can see that the only thing I popped up is the sentiment.

And of course I had to do something for the inside of the card...

The "Lighthearted Leaves" is such a fun stamp set to use. I hope you are inspired to create with it too. Below you will find everything I used to create this card with, minus the DSP and stamp set.

Happy Stamping!

Sneak Peek - Into the Woods DSP Card 2

I'm thinking more and more that I need to get a Stamp-a-ma-jig! You can see with the rainbow of "Grateful" that I need it. To top it off, two thirds of the way down I messed up the order of the colours! I hid it with my wood embellishments that will be available September 1st in the new Holiday Catalogue.

Using the "Into the Woods" DSP collection again for this card. It's such a cute Fall paper.

I split the Linen Thread to a single strand and created the loops behind the wood leaves & acorn that I coloured with my Stampin' Write Markers.

I didn't use and dimensionals this time, as the wood embellishments add enough thickness if I mail this card.

I punched a 2" circle and attached it to the corner inside and then cut off what was hanging over.

Cute card, don't you think?

Thank you for joining me today and see you tomorrow when you check in again.

Happy stamping!

Sneak Peek - All Ye Faithful Stamp Set

Before showing you more from the "Into the Woods" DSP creations, I had to try out the new Christmas stamp set "All Ye Faithful" in the upcoming Holiday Catalogue. I wanted to see if I could use new colour Mint Macaron for a Christmas card. And here it is!

I'm thinking that with the white embossing powder it may have been better to use Whisper White cardstock rather than the Very Vanilla that I used. For the trees on this card I used one of the leaves from the new "Lighthearted Leaves" stamp set, also in the new Holiday Catalogue.

Close up...

Side view showing the frame...

And lastly, the inside.

I'm really looking forward to making more cards with this stamp set, but I'm going back to the "Into the Woods" DSP cards tomorrow.

There are some wonderful Christmas stamp set and papers in the new 2015 Holiday Catalogue. I can hardly wait to give you your copy!

In the mean time happy creating, and happy stamping!

Sneak Peek - Card Made With "Into the Woods" DSP

I've received my pre-order from the new Holiday Catalogue and will be giving you sneak peeks of new items available on September 1st.

The beautifully hand painted Autumn DSP is called "Into the Woods" and has wood embellishments, ribbon, and a coordinating stamp set (of which I still need to order). A lovely collection of DSP.

This first card I'm showing you uses this lovely paper. The stamp set is from last year's Holiday Catalogue (Merry Everything) and is still available.

Here is the hand painted DSP Collection "Into the Woods". (click on it if you wish to see a larger image of it)

After heat embossing the sentiment with white, I used Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze to sponge and blend the inks.

A side view, next, shows the layering of the card.

For the inside, I used the Tangelo Twist Stampin' Write marker for just the word 'grateful' and stamped along the bottom. I can hardly wait to get my Stamp-a-ma-jig so I can do a better job.

It's always nice to give everyone attending your Thanksgiving feast with a little something to let them know how grateful you are for them. This DSP is perfect to create little cards, gift bags, or treat boxes, etc., for such a special holiday.

Thank you for stopping by. Be sure to check in again for the remainder of this month featuring Sneak Peeks at what you will find in the new Holiday Catalogue!

Happy creating!
