Hello Harvest Autumn Card

Leave a comment August 24, 2022 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

Every Wednesday morning at 9am(-ish) Pacific Time I craft LIVE on FB and You Tube. If you didn’t catch my video this morning you can see the card I created below. It was created using the Hello Harvest stamp set and the gorgeous Texture Chic 12X12 DSP.

I love autumn and I enjoy using unique colour combos with the leaves. This card uses Mango Melody, Petal Pink and Soft Suede paired with some Pool Party and gold accents. The DSP, Glimmer Paper and Fine Sparkle Gems add LOTS of shine.

I also love to add details to cards by stamping the insides and the envelopes to match.

You can see exactly how I created this card in this video replay or by reading the printable card recipe below. All of the supplies I used to create today’s card are also listed below.

You can place an order by contacting me directly or clicking on the image(s) below.

Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge # 396 – Colour Challenge

1 Comment August 23, 2022 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

This week’s Hand Stamped Sentiments challenge is a rich Colour Challenge. Take a look at all the beautiful cards created by our design team and then join the challenge.

I used Stampin’ Blends to create a quick, fun background for this card – inspired by Stampin’ Through the Catalog. To let the flower bundles stand out nicely I also traced around the images with light Pool Party Stampin’ Blends. This bundle has some coordinating and complimentary dies – unfortunately I forgot I had the dies so I fussy cut the flower bundles and the banner.

To colour the flower bouquet I used my Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral and the retired Rich Razzleberry Stampin’ Blends – however the Blackberry Bliss and Fresh Freesia blends would be a good substitute.

There is one more week left to get a hold of the Sale-a-bration offerings. See exactly what you can earn by clicking the image below.

All of the supplies I used to create today’s card are listed below and on this handy printable recipe card.
