Stampin' Pumpkins

11/9/2021

Such cute kitty-corner layers at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #532 we have! I KNOW I can make something just right for Thanksgiving for SU Only #288, too!
My tried and true Fall combo this year has been the still-stunning Beauty of the Earth DSP with our lovely Pretty Pumpkins bundle. I turned our stampin' sketch sideways, picked my favorite remaining scrap of DSP, and then worked out my die-cut layered pumpkins. Using Gold Foil let me bring in some of our Gilded Gems - yum!
I can't wait to see your projects, at BOTH challenges, meet you there!

Yum! Fusion has a festive "pumpkin mugs" inspiration for us this week - so fun!
I totally knew I'd be pulling out my Pretty Pumpkins bundle for this one, but how about those colors?? They actually reminded me of the gorgeous gingham sheets in that pansy pack - let's go check! And SCORE! The greens in the Pansy Petals are just right for this inspiration pick, and there was even a stripey pattern to let me cheat a little on the sketch, lol. I'm totally thrilled with how these fun colors came out on the pumpkin trio, too - so glam!

Autumn Pumpkin (& Christmas Cards Part 2 Oct 16!)

10/7/2021

So excited - Addicted to CAS #207 has the perfect code word this week - "autumn!"
I turned right away to my Pretty Pumpkins set - I knew already I wanted to brighten up this particular pumpkin in Fall colors! I ended up using sponge daubers to add a mix of Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry. A couple Soft Succulent leaves was just the right finishing touch. I snuck in a tiny strip of Harvest Meadow DSP - I'm really scraping the barrel on this pack! I literally have no scrap wider than 3" left, lol. I think we liked this one! Such a fun challenge!

I couldn't resist this intriguing color combo over at Hand Stamped Sentiments #372 - gorgeous!
I'm especially delighted to see Merry Merlot in this mix - I think this is one of our most under-served colors, lol. And it's beautiful! So I featured that for my "detail" picture - my background layer and the sentiment, plus my fussy-cut set of leaves from Little Delights. This set was made for making your own DSP! I chose the Autumnal leaves for this color combo, and the sentiment that went with, but then I found my remaining Gold Holly Leaves to throw on there, too - oops! I think the gold goes great with these colors, anyway!

Since our suggested theme is "Falling Leaves" this week, too, I decided this was finally my chance to try out some of these fun little images in Banner Year - it really does have a little bit of everything! I chose this little leaf, the pumpkin and the acorn to flesh out my little triptych, along with a Thanksgiving sentiment. This gorgeous Fall scrap of DSP from the Beauty of the Earth pack was perfect to help me choose my colors, too!
I can't wait to see YOUR projects for our sweet sketch this week - meet you at the challenge!

We have some gorgeous sunny colors for you this week at Sunday Stamps #265!
These colors seemed like the perfect recipe to start inking up my new Pretty Pumpkins set - wait'll you see the dies! There are also some sweet images in this, as well as some lovely harvest sentiments - I think this is the first time I've seen so many pumpkin blossoms and leaves in one of our sets - pretty cool for me, because all my gourds are blooming here now, too, lol.
I can't wait to see YOUR creations with our colors this week - meet you at the challenge!

A very fun (and thankful!) combo at this week's Fusion!
I decided to go pretty classic with my Gather Together set - LOVE this big leaf, and the varied pumpkins to play with. I get such bold coloring with my Blends Markers, perfect for a holiday table! I added a background from the Gilded Autumn DSP pack, this speckle is so perfect for just a little non-distracting interest! I arranged my elements a little backwards to the sketch, but I'm still happy with how it came out!

I'm loving our classic landscape sketch this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #483! It'll be perfect for our Thanksgiving theme at this week's SU Only #262, too!
I decided to play a little bit with our upcoming Enjoy the Moment set for this one - this is the set we got from our Mother Ship for our On Stage convention this year, all online! I was pretty thrilled, because I actually don't have any other botanicals quite like these, and they take me back to gathering up all the fun pods and shapes in the Fall for a Harvest table, so much fun! I added a Happy Thanksgiving on the inside, but I think this could easily be just a fun Fall card!
I hope you can join us for our challenges this week - I can't wait to see your projects!
Enjoy the Moment Stamp Set; Dandy Garden DSP; Whisper White, Bumblebee & Crumb Cake CS; Early Espresso & Crumb Cake Inks; Cajun Craze Blend Marker; Stitched Shapes & Rectangle Stitched Dies; Bumblebee Cotton Ribbon; Crumb Cake Buttons (retired); Linen Thread; #TSOT483; #SUOC262.

Golden Days

What a great theme - The Sisterhood of Crafters is celebrating the golden days of Fall by asking us to include gold on our cards! Perfect!
I decided to go back and check for any Fall sets that I have not been giving enough attention lately - and wouldn't you know it, Gather Together leapt right out, lol. I couldn't stop thinking about this lovely big maple leaf, and how cool it would look heat-embossed in gold, so that's what I ended up doing, of course, lol. I then had a little fun playing with my Water Painters, adding some nice fall colors to them before cutting them out. I wasn't sure I had quite enough gold on there at the end, so a bit of Gold Metallic Thread and some Gilded Gems finished it off. Love it!

Hm, The Sisterhood of Crafters is having a "wood" theme this week, and there are some seriously cute offerings in the DT samples! I gotta try this...
I remembered that there is a woodgrain sheet in our gorgeous Come to Gather pack - love these planks! With that as my starting point, I decided to just keep going with the Gather Together suite. I also wanted to give this "invisible" coloring style a stab, too. I tried with both Blends Markers, on the pumpkins, and Watercolor Pencils, on the leaf. My method wasn't very scientific, lol. I just stamped my images in stamped off Sahara Sand, and then just tried to make sure I covered up those lines in my coloring. An interesting idea that I need to look into more! It made for some fun experimenting today!
