Gift of Fall Paper Pumpkin Wreath

This was one of the first cards I tackled - what was I going to do with all of those little tiny leaves? I love how it came out but it was definitely a labor of love!

~Enjoy!



Let's start with the easy part, the background. I embossed a piece of Blackberry Bliss with the Scripty 3D Embossing Folder, layered with a piece of white & 2 trimmed down pieces of the Gift of Fall add on cards with the Pretty Peacock Wreath removed. The sentiment is stamped with Blackberry Bliss & layered over a piece of Silver Glimmer Paper. The whole thing is topped off with a double bow made with the Linen Thread. 


Now let's talk about those leaves! I trimmed assorted leaves with several papers and the Leaf Punch to match the Blackberry Bliss & Pretty Peacock leaves that came with the kit. The Crushed Curry ones came from the envelope flaps and then I supplemented some plain Blackberry Bliss ones from cardstock. With the Gift of Fall add on cards, I used some of the Crumb Cake card bases and ran them through my embossing machine with the Stylish Scroll Embossing Folder and then sanded the tops of the paper lightly to release the white core.  Lastly, I punched some leaves with Whisper White & added some Ice Stampin' Glitter crystals adhered with Shimmery Crystal Effects.

Paper Pumpkin A Little Smile Alternate Grunge

The A Little Smile Paper Pumpkin kit from June 2019 was really cute. I just happened to have a last minute cruise set up for December, so these little rays of sunshine worked out well for thank you cards for the staff!

~Enjoy!



The background was embossed with the Seaside Textures Embossing Folder and Whisper White and that is layered on a card base of Whisper White for added dimension. I embossed some Crumb Cake with the Subtle Embossing Folder and inked the edges with some Soft Suede and a sponge and also roughed up the edges with a kitchen knife. I inked up one of the medallions with Soft Suede also. The sentiment is stamped with Coastal Cabana and has the bottom bordered in some Wink of Stella. I also sponged some Coastal Cabana ink on the backs of 2 of the fronds. The whole thing is topped off with a double bow made from Linen Thread from the kit and some Sequins from the Heirloom Textures Sequins pack. The envelope is decorated with the Waterfront Stamp Set.
