PPA9 - Sometimes you feel like a nut.....

And sometimes you add one to a card! This was a fun Fall challenge and I used Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Whisper White card stock. Stampin' Up's Autumn Fest was used and is no longer available. The small leaves were stamped using two colors- Get your Basic Brown Stamp Pad ready by keeping it closed and smooshing the top and bottom together. Open it up, and put the leaf stamp on the pumpkin pie pad and then dip in the ink in the lid of the Basic Brown. Stamp on a piece of paper and then stamp on the card stock. Do the same with the Old Olive leaf. Use the Cutter Kit to rough up the edges and then sponge them with Old Olive. I used the bigger leaf and stamped them in Old Olive Ink on Old Olive card stock. The Pumpkin Pie was punched with the Wide Oval. Happy Thanksgiving from the Teeny Tiny Wishes was stamped in Old Olive and then layered after being punched out with the Large Oval Punch. I added an acorn stamped with the Basic Brown Marker and then dangled it with the Linen Thread. Happy Stamping!

Bride to Be!

I love this card and since I've had 7 weddings this year, many brides to be received this card in an array of colors! Beth is the lucky gal who will be the recipient of this card. Stampin' Up's Big on Spring is no longer available, but it's a great set and I'm glad I kept it around! Bride to Be was stamped in Basic Black on Whisper White and then layered on the beautiful flocked paper from the Christmas Cocoa Specialty Paper. The letters were colored with Water Color Pencils and embellished with a Red Circle Rhinestone Brad on flowers punch from an older three flower punch from Stampin' Up but you could use the Boho Blossoms for the same effect. Tiny Rhinestones were adhered with Stampin' Up's Glue Pen. You can use any of Stampin' Up's Designer Papers to match any wedding colors! Happy Stamping!

What a fun challenge! I used Stampin' Up's Jackpot Paper to make most of the card and it is
arranged on Whisper White. I used the stamp set Game Night and stamped Big Winner on Crushed Curry and Jackpot on Whisper White. The word Jackpot was cut and layered on a piece of the black paper from the Jackpot paper and Big Winner was punched out with the Small Oval Punch and layered on again..Jackpot paper punched with the Large Oval Punch. The actual Spade, Heart and Club were punched out of a deck of cards with the 1 inch circle punch and applied to more Jackpot Paper punched with the 1&1/4in Circle Punch.
