Autumn Slimline and More

Hi friends! I'm popping in with another fun slimline card and a reminder that today's the final day to take advantage of the Sweet 'n Sassy Fall Sale.

I love fall most of all. So many beautiful, bright colors, and a relief from the HOT, HOT summer! Yesterday I even got to wear a sweatshirt (my favorite comfy clothes) for the first time in quite a while. Yay! When I created this card I was immersed in an autumn vibe with my hot coffee in my mug and a pumpkin spice candle wafting it's aroma through the room.

I've really been digging the new crackling campfire distress color, so pulled it out, along with dried marigold and warm honey to do a little ink blending. I decided to cut a little square mask from a post it note to fit these fun stitched scallop dies, then did some rally quick blends.  I then used the same colors of ink to smoosh onto these leaves from the Fur-ever Friends and fussy cut to layer on the two outer squares.  The sentiment is from the Leaf Silhouettes set, and I framed it all on a slimline die cut from a woodgrain paper.  A little gold matting and I was done.  Love how this one turned out.

For my second card today, I'm sharing another one of my creations from my Dirty Dozen design team term.  For the "on a roll" theme, I chose this sweet little bear pulling his wagon of pumpkins.  He's from the darling Rhubarb's Harvest set.

I colored him up with copic markers, then die cut and matted with rounded rectangle die cuts.  The sentiment from the same set is embossed in gold directly on the patterned paper, and I added some coordinating papers and a seam binding bow to finish things off.

 

My next card is a super quick and easy one.  I love how a card can be as simple as stamping a background and adding a sentiment.

Here I stamped the leaves from Autumn Splendor in Crackling Campfire, Cracked Pistachio, Gathered Twigs, and Scattered Straw, then sprinkled a bit with watered down Gathered Twigs ink. I loved how the background turned out so much that I didn't want to cover it up.  So I stamped a sentiment, rounded the bottom corners and called it done. Sweet and simple!

So as I mentioned before, today is the final day of the fall sale at Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.  All of the stamps I used in this card  (as well as the rest of the Autumn category) are 20% off. But hurry, the sale ends tonight (9/27).

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have a blessed day!
