Fall Tissue Packs

 Hello & Happy Sunday!

Just a quick post as it was a busy day.

I wanted to share these pretty tissue packs I had in my stash for quite awhile. I am trying to use up lots of different things that are packed in my stamp drawers. These tissues I picked up at Ollie's maybe 4-5 years ago and they just got pushed to the back of the drawer. 

Project Details:

Stamps: Impressions Obsession, Gather Together (retired)

Ink: Pumpkin Pie

Cardstock: Pumpkin Pie, Pecan Pie, Basic White, Gold Foil Paper, Reminisce Hello Autumn

Accessories: Gathered Leaves Dies, Stylish Shapes Dies, Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Irregular Weave Trim, Streaked Dots, 1 inch Circle Punch (Fiskars), Simply Score Board, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I gave a pack of these to Audrey as a Thank You gift on one of her recent orders. She said they are perfect to carry in her purse.

Amber Autumn Fun Fold

Hello & Happy Fri-YAY, Friends!

The weekend is here! 

Shawn took vacation yesterday & today. Yesterday the solar panels finally got installed. They were here for almost 12 hours and it was dark by the time they left. They won't be turned on for a few more weeks as they need to be monitored by the electric company then they will get turned on. Not sure what the reasoning is for that? Today he took the truck to be inspected then we are headed out to do some errands. I am hoping tomorrow to get some crafting done as they are calling for rain in the late afternoon/evening. We need the rain so I will not complain. 

So, today I am sharing another Thanksgiving card that I made using the Amber Autumn bundle from the 2025 Stampin Up! Holiday Mini Catalog. My photo's aren't the best because of the embossing and lighting but I think you can still see how it was created.

Card Details:

Stamps: Amber Autumn, Pleasant Pheasants (retired sentiment)

Ink: Mossy Meadow, Versamark

Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Gold Foil Paper, Autumn Toile DSP

Accessories: Branching Out Dies, Gathering Leaves EF (Online Exclusives), Gold Metallic Ribbon, Low Profile Dots, Gold Embossing Powder, Heat Gun, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I really love this one even though it did not photograph very well. I may try to change the settings on my camera and take more pictures because these are really washed out. It's quite pretty in real life!

It's looking to be a beautiful day here in south central PA.

It will be nice to get out of the house and soak up some of that sunshine!

Hope you get to enjoy it too before rain & more cold temps come rush in!

I had to dig out my winter coat yesterday and today I may need to go looking for my gloves & scarf! Burrrr!

I found the paper at Hobby Lobby a few months ago and decided to use it for the little ones cards. I used lots of different stamp sets & dies for these but they did turn out so nice!

Stampin Up has given us some nice Christmas papers this year but I need something different for the little ones. I see another trip to Hobby Lobby soon or maybe even Michael's! Woohoo!

4 Beautiful Pumpkin Cards

 Hello & Happy Fri-YAY!!

The weekend is here!! I'm looking forward to relaxing a bit since it's been busy the last week or so!! Last weekend we worked on putting out all the ceramic Christmas trees in the family room so the downstairs is completely done. We will work on the upstairs once Thanksgiving is over. We aren't quite sure yet if we are going to cook or go up to the restaurant for Thanksgiving dinner. I was thinking about trying something different this year. Guess I better soon make a decision on that!

Today I have 4 cards to share that I made with the Beautiful Pumpkins set from the Online Exclusives. I made these for Audrey as she requested them for her family. And I used one of the Kitchen Table Stampers Shortcut Sketches on this.

Here is the sketch...

The second set I just flipped the sketch...

Card Details:

Stamps: Beautiful Pumpkins (Online Exclusives), Pleasant Pheasants (retired 2022 saying)

Ink: Peach Pie, Pumpkin Pie, Garden Green, Pecan Pie

Cardstock: Pumpkin Pie, Basic White, Woven Textures DSP (Online Exclusives), Garden Green DSP (retired 2022-2023)

Sign Design Season of Thanks

 Hello & Happy Thursday, Friends!

This morning we are dealing with a potent cold front that came thru around 9 last night. The winds are really howling and a blowing outside! This will definitely get the leaves off the trees! I raked the backyard yesterday afternoon and as of this morning it is totally leaf covered again. I suppose I see more leaf raking in my future after this! LOL

Today I have a pretty colorful Thanksgiving card to share with you that I made recently with a new stamp set from the 2025 Stampin Up! Holiday Mini Catalog called Sign Design. I paired it with some Gathering Together DSP from the Online Exclusives.

Card Details:

Stamps: Sign Design, A Wish For Everything (retired inside sentiment), Gathering Moments (leaf inside-Online Exclusives)

Ink: Early Espresso, Cajun Craze

Cardstock: Cajun Craze, Old Olive, Basic White, Gathering Together DSP (Online Exclusives)

Accessories: Gathering Leaves EF (Online Exclusives), Sign Design Punch, Loose Gold Sequins, Gold Ribbon, Gold Twine (retired), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I think this is my favorite Thanksgiving card to date! I love the pretty colors and the pop of gold in the paper and from the sequins & ribbon treatment.

The Sign Design Bundle consists of a stamp set and coordinating punch which helps in making quick cards!
