Today’s card is another version of the one I shared on Monday and it features the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Leaves stamp set and our Blending Brushes.
I started with a piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock for the base of my card and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder.
Then, using Basic White cardstock and our Blending Brushes, I covered my paper with Just Jade ink. When I had the shade I wanted, I blended Pool Party ink and then a small amount of Pacific Point ink. As I mentioned in Monday’s post, after getting ink on my Blending Brush, I start by moving the brush in a circular motion on my grid paper and then without lifting the brush, continue on to my Basic White cardstock. This will help to prevent blotches of color.
I cut the paper down to 4-3/4″ x 2″ and then using Memento Ink, stamped leaves using the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set. Then I adhered it to a piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I used the stamp set Pansy Patch to stamp the sentiment in Memento Ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock. This is a photopolymer stamp set and I CUT the stamp in half so it would fit on my circle. Now my stamp is more versatile and it was easy to cut with our Paper Snips. I cut the sentiment out using our Tasteful Labels Dies. I used the Layering Circles Dies to cut a larger circle out of Coastal Cabana and then layered the two pieces together. On the back, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the right side only and then adhered it to the card front. To complete the card, I added three Holiday Rhinestones.

Today’s card features the Stampin’ Up! Intricate Leaves Dies and the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. Both of these products are new and featured in the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Cajun Craze cardstock that I embossed using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I added a square of Basic White cardstock that I embossed with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder onto a square of Bumblebee cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I cut two leaves using the Intricate Leaves Dies out of Cajun Craze cardstock and Bumblebee cardstock. Down near the uppermost part of the stem, I added a Mini Glue Dot between the leaves to secure them together. Then I added one to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I made a bow using two pieces of Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine (you can find this in the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack). I added a Mini Glue Dot to the back (rolled into a ball) and adhered the bow to the leaves.
The sentiment was stamped onto a Basic White scalloped circle that was cut out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. It was stamped in Cajun Craze ink using the stamp set, Biggest Wish. I added adhesive to the upper part of the circle and adhered it to the lower bottom right corner of the small square. To complete the card I added three Holiday Rhinestones.

Today’s card features the Pretty Pumpkins Bundle and the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. The Pretty Pumpkins Bundle includes the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set and the Detailed Pumpkins Dies.
I started with a layer of Pumpkin Pie cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Next, I cut a scalloped rectangle out of Pumpkin Pie cardstock and a smaller one out of Basic White cardstock using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set using Memento Ink onto the Basic White rectangle and then adhered it to the Pumpkin Pie rectangle. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I stamped the pumpkins onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Memento ink and the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set and then colored them using these colors of Stampin’ Blends: Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green and Cinnamon Cider. It was super easy to cut them out with the Detailed Pumpkins Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and attached it to the Basic White rectangle.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and added three Holiday Rhinestones to the front.
