Hello ~ and welcome to my blog, Creative Card Closet.  My name is Lisa Brown and I am an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.  I love sharing projects and ideas with you, so let's get started. 

First off, Happy Halloween!  It is the spookiest day of the year but don't let that deter you from being creative. 

Today I'm sharing a card we made in my monthly stamp class.  I hold them in-person each month, in my home.  All are welcome.  Email me at [email protected] to get added to my email list and class announcements. 

This is a great project to change up the color and words to fit many different occasions, so I know you are going to like it.  And it is easy to make duplicates of. 

• I used Thick Very Vanilla for my card base with a layer of Pecan Pie
• Use the layer of Pecan Pie to die cut the leaves from (paper saving!)
• Top layer of regular Very Vanilla card stock is embossed with the Changing Leaves Hybrid Embossing folder
• The words are from the So Sincere stamp set linked below along with the banner die from Stylish Shapes
• Use Stampin' Dimensionals to add the banner and embellish with the Pecan Pie & Clear Ribboned Adhesive Dots

Today is October 31, 2024 and it is that last day for 2 amazing deals!

Hello ~ and welcome to my blog, Creative Card Closet.  My name is Lisa Brown and I am an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.  I love sharing projects and ideas with you, so let's get started. 

I LOVE FALL!  It is my favorite time of year and I am so exciting for the More Than Autumn Bundle.  And I love that this bundle highlights my favorite drink, a Pumpkin Spice Latte!  Who's with me? 

Stampin' Up! did a wonderful job designing this cute, whimsical stamp set with coordinating dies and also incorporating a tiny bit of the winter season.  Be sure to check out the More Than Autumn Bundle but in the meanwhile, let me share my pumpkin spice card with you. 

Details:

• Stamped cup and whip with Black Memento ink and die cut with bundle dies.  
• Images colored with Stampin' Blends markers in Pumpkin Pie & Pecan Pie (how appropriate!)
• Circles are from the Deckled Circle Dies
• Designer paper is Country Woods 12" x 12"
• Ribbon is the Natural 3/8" Polka Dot Trim
• Embellishments are the Pecan Pie & Clear Ribboned dots
• Words in Glimmer Paper are Peach Pie (2024-2026 In Color) and Green (Granny Apple Green from Festive 12x12 Glimmer paper)
  
  • use our Adhesive Sheets for easy application
• Use Stampin' Dimensionals under the circles and cup to add height and of course, dimension to your card

I kept the inside simple with a little phrase and some extra pumpkins. 

There will definitely be more to share using this bundle.  I better get moving seeing as the fall season is in full swing.

Hello ~ and welcome to my blog, Creative Card Closet.  My name is Lisa Brown and I am an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.  I love sharing projects and ideas with you, so let's get started. 

I have a friend who shares the same love of a good cup of coffee.  I think of her when I look at this card.  And if we did not live so far away from each other, I know I could call her up and create this scene anytime...

Stamp Set:  Coffee With Friends

Die Set:  Grove Dies

• my card base is Mossy Meadow
• I cut a piece of Thoughtful Journey DSP to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2 covering whole card front
• Using Thick Basic White CS cut to 4 x 5-1/4, die cut with Grove Die scene
• Lay (don't adhere yet) die cut on top of DSP and make some pencil marks so you know where to line up your stamp
• When stamping the girls on the bench, MASK off the bottom 1/4" of the DSP
• Color image with Stampin' Blends markers
• Adhere Grove Die cut to card with Stampin' Dimensionals

Inside:  the strip is the reverse side of my DSP piece when I cut it down to size.
