Focus on Stamps: Cardmaking

Hello! Today we have a few cards to share with different ways to use the Lily Bee stamps to create fall cards.

   

First off, Andrea Budjack has a beautiful fall card to share with you. Can you guess what the pumpkin is made out of?

Andrea says, "It is always fun to create embellishments with clear stamps. On this card, I created the pumpkin using the doily circle stamp from the Persnickety collection as well as the leaves. Simply stamp this image three separate times onto cardstock and cut out. Layer and adhere two of the stamped pieces behind the center piece to create the pumpkin. Stamp two more of this image onto cardstock using green ink for the leaves. Handcut two leaves, fold in half and adhere to pumpkin. Create a stem by cutting from brown paper (used All Spice paper) and adhere to backside of pumpkin.  Stamp heart from Autumn Spice collection, trimmed and added to pumpkin." 

Clever and gorgeous, Andrea!

Supplies: Autumn Spice (Vanilla - paper, All Spice - paper, Clove - paper, Clear Stamps), Christmas Cheer (Clear Stamps), Persnickety (Clear Stamps, Index Journal Card)

On my card, I used the Autumn Spice Clear Stamp set and stamped the circles in Melon Berry Ink, then the hearts in Canyon Clay ink over the top. I also stamped the circle, heart and "family" from this set and popped it up for dimension. The "so grateful" is cut with the Silhouette Cameo machine with the Autumn Spice papers.

A little handstitching finishes off the stamped heart with another touch of dimension. The papers are so easy to mix and match, love them!

Supplies: Autumn Spice (papers, clear stamps). Other: Silhouette Cameo machine, Doily Details dies and inks by Papertrey Ink, twine, chevron button by A Flair for Buttons, machine stitching, hand stitching.

Thank you for reading today, and have a happy day!
