Pretty Pumpkin Friends ~ #HSSSC374

Hi friends and welcome to another fabulous Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge!

Hands Stamped Sentiments #374

I always love a good sketch to play along with and this is one that I will be using again for sure!  This is a great way to use some different colors and/or patterns of DSP!

I am in full on FALL mode and still loving the Pretty Pumpkins Bundle.  I pulled out the Beauty of the Earth DSP and brought in colors from the one of the beautiful patterns.

I cut a strip of DSP and added two smaller strips of Merry Merlot.  Since the DSP has a white background, I decided on Basic White and Cinnamon Cider for the two layers of the card front.  I always love all of the textures of fall, so bringing in the Bark 3D and Painted Texture 3D embossing folders for the perfect amount of texture.

I stamped the beautiful leafy pumpkin in Early Espresso on Very Vanilla and tucked some Bumblebee, Cinnamon Cider and Early Espresso leaves and twigs behind it.  

The sentiment was stamped in Merry Merlot on Crumb Cake, the fussy cut...of course!  A few golden Brushed Metallic Dots gave just the right amount of shimmery  shine.

I hope you'll join us and play along with this weeks sketch!  I can't wait to see all of your amazing creations!

Happy Stamping!

Beautiful Detailed Pumpkins ~ #TGIFC336

Welcome to an all new TGIF Challenges Color Challenge.  Aren't these colors just beautiful?

I recently added the Pretty Pumpkins bundle to my collection and thought it would be fun to try out with some non-traditional pumpkin colors.

I die cut a beautiful Blackberry Bliss pumpkin and heat embossed the leafy pumpkin in black on Very Vanilla.   I dressed both pumpkins up with some gold foil leaves and added a bit of vanilla twine that I separated into single strands.

I embossed a piece of Very Vanilla with the Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder and splattered it with a little Blackberry Bliss ink then layered it on a Blackberry Bliss card base. I heat embossed the Gather Together sentiment on a piece of Basic Black then fussy cut it...my favorite thing to do with sentiments these days!

A strip of Fine Art Ribbon and a few gold Sequins for Everything brought it all together for the perfect fall greeting.

I hope you will join in the fun and play along with us at TGIF Challenges this week!

Happy Stamping!

If Friends Were Pumpkins ~ #HSSIC373

Happy Tuesday friends!  Fall is in the air and this weeks Hand Stamped Sentiments Inspiration Challenge has all of the fall feels!

I just got the Pretty Pumpkins Bundle and was so excited to use it!  I thought it would be perfect for this challenge.  Inspired by the colors and pumpkins in the Inspiration Collage, I made quick work of putting this card together.

I created a shiplap background and added a couple of the pretty die cut pumpkins, as well as a pretty stamped and die cut pumpkin.  I stamped and fussy cut the beautiful sentiment in Coastal Cabana, then popped it up with a few Dimensionals.  A few Holiday Rhinestones were the finishing touch.

Sorry for the short and sweet post today.  It's been a week already and it's only Tuesday...this back to school stuff is kicking my tail!  I hope to be back later this week with more projects to share.

Happy Stamping!
