Days of Gratitude

IMG_3129 I cased this gorgeous card from our Stamper’s Showcase.  I don’t remember the author—sorry. 

Colors are Crumb Cake, Pumpkin Pie and you guessed it! Soft Suede along with Very Vanilla.  I inked the large stamp with P.Pie and then Rock and Rolled the edge in Soft Suede ink.  The Orange piece is done with the Top Note die.  You just run it through one way, then turn it around, center it and run it through the other way—too cool!

Had some fun with the Fall DSP in the mini catalog, Autumn Spice. It is so beautiful—it’s textured!  I also used my tasteful trim die!  The green piece that has the little leaf  on it, pulls out for a message.  It was done with the 2 tags die.  Alphabet was Schoolbook Serif.  The stamp set of course, is Days of Gratitude—very popular!

Color Combo

I apologize, seems like I’ve fallen off the earth! I have been sick for almost 2 weeks but trying to keep up with everything.  I only postponed one event but have not kept up very well on here.  And, I’m getting ready for several big events: My group Christmas Party and I’m helping to cater it!  and a packed out scrapbook weekend.   This is the page that everyone is going to get to make at scrap weekend!

It uses the Candy Cane DSP  (the red dots are already glitter!),
The colors are Real Red, Baja Breeze and Soft Suede—don’t you love the combo?  I used the Scallop Die and ran it through with the polka dot folder.    The letters are Schoolbook Serif. Cardinal from Cardinal Christmas, has red glitter on the berries.

Not sure this close up shows it any better…

 

I put the Meaning of the Candy Cane in the corner.  Hope you enjoy
