Hello friends! It’s Leica here on the blog today. I have a Happy Thanksgiving card to share with you all featuring the new Fall Basket die set and Mouse Friends stamp set. Let’s get started!

I first cut a A2 sized panel in white cardstock and ink blended with Evergreen Bough Distress Oxide Ink. For added interest, I splattered some black and gold acrylic paint. 

Next, I worked on the Fall Basket dies. I ink blended Distress Oxide Inks on scrap papers and cut the basket, leaves, and pumpkins. I used the following inks – Antique Linen, Fossilized Amber, Mowed Lawn, Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade, and Twisted Citrus. I adhered some pumpkins on the back of the basket and then foam mounted the front onto the pumpkins. 

I then stamped, colored, and cut the mice from the new Mouse Friends stamp set. I used Copic markers in R20/00/000 and W3/1/0. Next, I adhered all the elements onto the inked card panel. For texture and added interest, I glued some pearls in Sunset Orange here and there. Lastly, I white heat emboss the sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock and foam mounted onto the card panel.

Thanks so much for stopping by! We can’t wait to see what you create with this new release!

Hello, Gemma here today. I’m using the wonderful Layered Apple stencil with an older stamp set, called School Friends. There are 3 layers in the Layered Apples stencil set – apples, stalks, and leaves.

I began with the apple stencil layer, blending distress oxide inks in Abandoned Coral and Worn Lipstick over an A2 card base.

For the stalk layer, I used Walnut Stain distress oxide ink. I then used the last layer of the stencil set to add the leaves, with Mowed Lawn distress oxide ink.

The Layered Apples stencilled background is so pretty when finished and there are lots of fun possibilities for colours. Next, I stamped images from the School Friends stamp set, colouring the images with copic markers and die cutting with the coordinating dies.

I die cut the Storybook 4 die from white card as I wanted to use the wide window piece for my sentiment. I stamped a sentiment from the Everyday Greetings stamp set, adhering it to my card with foam squares. I then added the School Friends images to finish, adding dimension with blank die cuts behind.

I hope you enjoyed today’s card. If you’re on Instagram, we’ll have a reel showing how to make this card up shortly!

Hi there crafty friends! I’m Raquel here today sharing some inspiration with the beautiful, new Falling Branches Stencil.

This stencil has so many possibilities! I made another project using it to apply embossing paste a few days ago but on today’s project, I wanted to use it to add lots of color.

I started my project by ink blending Mustard Seed, Salvaged Patina, Rusty Hinge and Spice Marmalade Distress inks onto 6×6 piece of cardstock. When applying the ink, I usually go heavier in the center and softer on the edges of the leaves, in this case, branches.

Once my background was done, I trimmed to 4 ¼ by 5 ½. This is always the hardest part as I want to keep it all. 

The idea behind this design was to use one of the Fall Envelopes Stamp Set so I used some Copic markers in the same or very similar colors of the leaves of the background:

I used:

E39, E37 and E35 for browns

Y11, Y13, YR21, YR23 and YR 24 for yellows.

BG32 and BG000 for blues

Next up I decided to add some white leaves for some dimension. I used several dies from the Stitched Foliage Die set. I felt something was missing so I thought I’d use one of the cutest mice from the Mouse Friends Stamp Set.

I used W4, W3, W1, W0, W00 and R11 Copic Markers to color this little guy. I also added white highlights using a nº 10 Gelly Roll Pen.

I wanted to add some contrast to this design so I thought the Thanks Script die would be perfect in black glitter cardstock:

I hope you find this project inspiring and feel encouraged to craft and create! Thank you for stopping by!

Welcome friends! This is Amanda from Twiddler’s Nook sharing a card combining unlikely products from the September release. I just adored the new Layered Apples stencil set so I had to play with it but wasn’t sure what I wanted on my card. Then, as I was coloring some of the images from Mouse Friends this sweet design hit me and I knew what I was creating!

I inked the apples from top left to bottom right red, yellow and green just like the colors apples come in. Then I added brown stems and a different color green leaves. Isn’t that background so much fun!?! I love it!

Next, I stamped and colored the pair of mice from Mouse Friends with my copic markers. Typically I color mice in grays but I switched gears to cute little brown mice today. Aren’t they sweet?!? I used the E40 line of copic markers for these critters with R11 and R00 for the ears and nose. I popped them up with foam squares and started die cutting my sentiment. 

I cut the Thanks Script from white cardstock 6 times to keep it level with the mice. The top layer is the complete die but all the layers below have the tops of the T, H and K trimmed off. I adhered it with liquid glue so the mice are standing on the letters. 

Finally I pulled a smaller sentiment from the Mouse Friends stamp set, stamped and heat embossed it on black and used the banner die in that set to cut it out. This is popped up on a foam strip to keep everything level.

Finishing touches on this card were simple by adding black glaze pen to the mouse eyes, glossy accents to their noses and white gel pen highlights all around them. 

I hope you enjoyed today’s project and found some inspiration to create something wonderful! Have a fabulous day! 

Hello, crafty friends! It’s Leica here today with a Happy Fall box card that would be so sweet to give to a loved one. For this sunflower-theme card, I used a few PPP stamps. Let’s get started!

I first assembled the box card in white cardstock. For the panels, I stenciled through the Layered Sunflower Stencils using Distress Oxide Inks in Fossilized Amber, Gathered Twigs, and Mustard Seed. For the grassy inserts, I ink blended them with Peeled Paint Distress Oxide Ink.

Next, I stamped, colored, and cut the following images:

Cat – Pumpkin Patch Critters

Acorn, Small Sunflower – Fall Envelopes

Sunflower plants – Potted Sunflowers

I then adhered the images onto the box. For the sentiment, I stamped Happy Fall onto the front panel of the box card. 

That’s all for this Fall box card. I hope that you like today’s card share and that you’ll create some cards for your family and friends. Have a great day!
