Fall handmade cards

Lawn Fawn Winter Sparrows ~ Fall Cards

| marialrussell

Hello stampers and crafters! I’m back today to share with you two fall cards that I have designed, showcasing Lawn Fawn Winter Sparrows, KatScrappiness Double-Stitched Circle Frames Dies and other products available at the shop.

The winter sparrows stamp set is actually meant for Christmas or Winter-themed cards but if you have been following me for awhile, you know that I like to stretch my stamps and use them for different seasons.

I am going to keep this blog post short because I am sharing a process video on how I made the cards. Which one is your favorite?

The supplies I have used will be listed and linked below. Have an amazing day!

Thanksgiving Cards

Hello stampers and crafters! I am back to share with you two Thanksgiving Cards that I designed this week for Kat Scrappiness. I will keep this Blog post short because I have provided a step-by-step process video of the cards below.

I used the Double-Stitched Rectangle Frames Dies by Kat Scrappiness to die-cut the pieces that I needed for my first card. I also used a die from my stash to create the beautiful shaker Mason jar piece as my focal point on the card. I wanted to fill it with vibrant colors and so I used the Autumn Harvest Sequin Mix and the 6mm Espresso Brown Flat Flowers.

For my second card, I used the Thankful Mice and the Cutie Pie stamp sets and coordinating dies by Lawn Fawn. I also used my Gina Marie Circle Scallop Frames, as well as my favorite Lawn Fawn 6×6 Perfectly Plaid Fall Paper Pad and a bunch of other dies and crafting supplies.

The supplies I have used are listed and linked below in case you would like to get a hold of these products.

Newton’s Nook Designs – Falling For You

| marialrussell

Fall is in the air! Don’t you just love the short days, comfort food, colorful leaves, sweater weather and pumpkin spice? I got so inspired today by a stamp set by Newton’s Nook Designs called “Fall-ing For you” that I decided to create a fall card.  This card is also my entry for the new Simon Says Stamp Challenge – Autumn.

I started out by stamping my image on Neenah Solar White card stock with my stamping tool, and colored my images using my Copic markers.

I went ahead to die-cut my card panel and mat using my new favorite die by KatScrappiness – the “Double Stitched Rectangle Nesting Dies”. These nesting dies are so versatile that I am finding myself using them in all of my paper crafting projects.  I also distressed my smaller rectangle piece using Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink by Tim Holtz, and used my watercolor brush to sprinkle water on my card stock to give it a distressed look.

I wanted to have some fall leaves for my card and so I decided to use my Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaves die, die-cutting a bunch of fall leaves in different colors, including some vellum.

Here is my card design for today. Don’t you just love fall? I love the simplicity of this card and I hope I have inspired you today to create something beautiful, or just go outside, take a leisure-walk, and enjoy the fall weather! Have an amazing day!
