Welcome to Create with Stamping Friends Creatively Simple Challenge! Each month Debbie and I will pick a theme for our simple cards. Our theme for October is Happy Harvest! Just in time for fall and upcoming Thanksgiving ideas!
WARMS MY HEART
I’ve had this little lady sitting already cut and colored on my desk for weeks! I decided it was finally time to use her! This card is pretty simple with an easy layout and designer paper! You could leave off the Gold Woven Leaves and Linen Thread for something even easier, but I like what they added!
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Basic Beige cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Days of Autumn 12×12 Designer Paper was added on top.
- The 2-3/4 x 3-1/2 piece of Cajun Cardstock was embossed with the Forever Plaid Embossing Folder and added to the front.
- A coordinating 1/2 x 4-1/2 piece of Days of Autumn DSP added over it.
- The circle was cut from Basic Beige with the Spotlight on Nature Dies and adhered to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The apple lady from Warms My Heart was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with Daffodil Delight, Cajun Craze, Old Olive, Pecan Pie and Ivory Stampin’ Blends. She was hand-cut and added to the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The greeting was stamped with Pecan Pie Ink on Basic White cardstock and hand-cut around the letters. It was added to the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Two Gold Woven Leaves were added behind the top of the greeting with Mini Glue Dots.
- Some Linen Thread was tied in a bow and added to the bottom of the leaves with Mini Glue Dots.
