Changing Leaves Thanksgiving Set

 Hello & Happy Wednesday, Friends!

Hope your staying warm!

We've had quite the blast of cold air that chilled me to the bone but today our temps are to go back to more seasonal. YAY! My hubby was home yesterday sick with a cold that he has been nursing since Saturday. I hope he's on the other side of it now and I don't pick it up!

Today I have a set of Thanksgiving cards to share that I made recently. These are in my bin packaged with envelopes and ready to go. I used a retired fall set called Changing Leaves which was from the Online Exclusives list last year. I do believe it was a huge hit! I paired my stamps with some retired Plaid Tidings DSP.

Card Details:

Stamps: Changing Leaves (retired Online Exclusives), A Wish For Everything (retired)

Ink: Blackberry Bliss

Cardstock: Blackberry Bliss, Mango Melody (retired), Basic White, Gold Foil Paper, Plaid Tidings DSP (retired)

Accessories: Changing Leaves Hybrid EF & Dies (retired Online Exclusives), Tags to Go Dies (retired Online Exclusives), Gold Twine (retired), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Another set all ready to go! Now it's time to move on to some Christmas cards! It will be here before ya know it!

Baby's 1st Thanksgiving

 Hello & Happy Tuesday, Friends!

We are waking up to some very cold (20's) temps/weather here in southcentral PA!

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

Today I have 2 cards to share that I made for Audrey's 2 great grandchildren. She now has 4 great grandchildren with another due in January! She is so excited to meet the little one!

These cards I kept the same and let me tell you, Audrey loved them!

Card Details:

Stamps: Brushwork Alphabet (retired), Birthday Celebrations (retired), Pick of the Patch (retired)

Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Pecan Pie

Cardstock: Crumb Cake, Pumpkin Pie, Basic White, Doodle Pumpkins by The Paper Studio

Accessories: Tasteful Textile 3D EF (retired), Pick of the Patch Builder Punch (retired), Birthday Celebrations Dies (retired), Word Wishes Dies (retired), Linen Thread, Neutral Adhesive Backed Sequins (retired), Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Adhesive Sheets, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

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! She has already asked for Baby's 1st Christmas cards so I need to get busy on them! I need to find some fun paper first! 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!

A Wish For Everything

 Hello & Happy Sunday, Friends!

Hope your having a nice weekend!

The last couple of weeks I have been working ahead on all the holiday things that are coming. Today's card is a Thanksgiving card that I made with lots of retired Stampin Up! products. I tend to jump back & forth with using new stuff and then using up what's in my stash. This card uses a retired set called A Wish For Everything and a wood mounted background stamp called Linen. I paired them with some All About Autumn DSP that is also retired to make a pretty card!

Card Details:

Stamps: A Wish For Everything (retired), Linen Background (retired), Words of the Season (inside)

Ink: Copper Clay (retired)

Cardstock: Copper Clay (retired), Very Vanilla, Copper Foil Paper, Oxidized Copper Foil (retired), All About Autumn DSP (retired)

Accessories: Circle Layering Framelits, Autumn Leaves Dies (retired), Neutral Adhesive Backed Sequins (retired), Linen Ribbon (retired), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Love how this one turned out! My card doesn't use anything new except for the inside sentiment and that is perfectly fine. I'm thrilled to be using what's in my stash and to be able to send someone a holiday card to know they are thought of.
