Hello, crafty friends! Arsenia here, and I’m so excited to share sneak peeks for the Fall/September Release! Friends, this release is absolutely chock-full of fall goodness! We have turkeys, scarecrows, leaves, acorns, a sweet little mouse, and SO much more! For today’s sneak peeks, I’m sharing the Wide Leaf Shaker Dies, Fall Word Shaker Dies, and Fall Bucket Additions Dies. I’m switching things up a bit because, although these are shaker dies, I didn’t actually make any shakers! Instead, I turned them into some pretty fall cards. I have five cards plus a bonus card to share with you, so let’s get this fall party started! 

For my first card, I used the Fall Word Shaker Dies. I started by creating a pretty berry-toned background with the new Layered Windowpane Plaid Stencil on light berry cardstock. I used that panel to die cut the Fall Word, then layered it up with the solid piece in a darker berry cardstock and even added a little glitter cardstock for some extra sparkle! For the background, I pulled out an oldie-but-oh-so-goodie favorite, the Layered Fall Wreath Stencil, and die cut the panel using the largest Stitched Torn Rectangles Dies. I adhered everything to a dark berry card base, added my Fall Word, and finished it off with a Happy sentiment from the Happy Birthday Shadow Dies, the sweetest little acorn from the new Fall Holder Additions Dies, and a whimsical burlap bow. Ta-da! Card number one is complete, and I absolutely love how it turned out!

For my second card, I reached for the new Wide Leaf Shaker Die and had a little fun changing things up! For card number two, I created my background using the new Wheat Pattern Stencil and die cut the panel with the largest Stitched Torn Rectangles Dies. I die cut the leaf and gave it a pretty ombré ink-blending treatment before offsetting it with a darker die-cut layer from the Wide Leaf Shaker Die. Instead of filling it with shaker bits, I added little hearts for a faux-shaker look! My sentiment is from the new Happy Fall Stamp Set with coordinating dies, and friends, this set is a MUST-HAVE! I think I used it on the majority of my cards for this release. To finish things off, I added acorns and leaves from the Fall Holder Additions Dies, lots of golden splatters, and, of course, a sweet burlap bow. 

For my third card, I die cut the leaf twice using two different shades of berry cardstock and added some ink blending to each die-cut piece for a little extra depth. For my background, I used the Layered Fall Wreath Stencil Set and once again added those fun little hearts for a faux-shaker effect. The sweetest sentiment from the new Happy Fall Stamp Set with coordinating dies brings everything together perfectly. I added plenty of shimmer and golden splatters because, in my crafty world, there’s almost always room for more sparkle! This time, I finished the card with a pretty gold bow, and I think this one might be one of my favorites! 

For my fourth and fifth cards, I pulled out the new Fall Bucket Additions Dies and paired them with my much-beloved original Candy Bucket Die. I absolutely adore that Paulina continues to create additions for the original die sets—it makes them feel brand new all over again and means we never have to stop using our favorites!  For both backgrounds, I used the new Gingham Stencil, adding a little partial stenciling, ink smooshing, and LOTS of splatters to create those perfectly imperfect fall backgrounds. For the scarecrow card, I added additional elements from the Fall Mug Additions Dies, a few hearts, and, of course, a sentiment from the new Happy Fall Stamp Set.

For the turkey card, I used the new Gingham Stencil on the bucket, added sweet little hearts and elements from the new Fall Holder Additions Dies, and finished it with the Blessings sentiment from—you guessed it—the new Happy Fall Stamp Set! I absolutely adore these cards, and the Candy Bucket Additions are definitely some of my favorite products to create with! 

And now for my bonus card! I couldn’t resist making a second scarecrow card with the new Fall Bucket Additions Dies, but this time I left the original Candy Bucket Die on the shelf. Instead, I used the new Pinking Circles Dies as my base, and oh my goodness, these circles look SO cute layered onto the Pinking Rectangle Dies! I added a cozy little scarf from the Fall Mug Additions Dies to keep my scarecrow nice and toasty for those crisp autumn days.  The leaves are a mix of the new Stitched Leaves Dies and the new Fall Holder Additions Dies, while the background features the Layered Foliage Stencil with some partial stenciling for a soft, whimsical look. For my sentiment, I used the new Upright Greetings: Fall Stamp Set, and voilà… the cutest little scarecrow ever! 

Friends, I hope you enjoyed today’s sneak peeks as much as I enjoyed creating these fall goodies! Don’t forget to scroll through because the design team has created some absolutely phenomenal makes to inspire you! There is SO much crafty goodness coming your way with this release, and I can’t wait for you to see it all.

Welcome as we kick off the first day of our September 14th release. From charming scarecrows and shaker dies to leaves and turkeys, there’s so much to love in this new collection! Today we’ll be taking a look at the Acorn Shaker, Mouse Holder, Fall Holder Additions, and Stitched Leaves die sets.

Hello crafty friends, Christina here! I’m so excited to share the first sneak peeks at the cutest, coziest fall collection full of sunflowers, scarecrows, warm plaids, and autumn leaves. Today we are introducing some of the new die sets, including the re-release of the Acorn Shaker Die that has been redesigned so you can choose to use it as a shaker or as a regular die cut. It’s always good to have options! To showcase the new die sets we’re introducing today, as well as some of the new stencils, I’m sharing a trio of cozy cards with you for a bounty of fall inspiration. Let’s get started!

My first card features the Acorn Shaker Dies and two new stencils. Using the dies, I created a shaker element for my card and filled it with the new Blush Harvest Shaker Beads. I used the beads as my color inspiration for this card, so I started with a dusty rose cardstock panel trimmed to 4.25 x 5.5 inches and created a warm plaid pattern with the Windowpane Plaid stencil and Gathered Twigs Distress Ink. I added some distressing to the panel by spattering it with white splatter medium. Then I layered this panel with an ivory Pinking Rectangle off center and at a slight angle to the plaid panel for a whimsical look. In the center of the Pinking Rectangle, I added another stenciled panel that I trimmed down to fit inside the stitching detail. For this smaller stenciled panel, I used the new Wheat Pattern on kraft cardstock with Gathered Twigs ink and die-cut it with the Argyle Pierced Plate before attaching it to the Pinking Rectangle. 

For the shaker element, I die-cut the acorn frame piece several times from the dusty rose cardstock and secured the layers with a liquid adhesive. I sandwiched a piece of acetate between the top two layers for the window, added the shaker beads, and finished with the backer piece. I chose a coordinating patterned paper to finish the backer piece and the top frame piece and topped the acorn with a chocolate brown cap. I attached the acorn to the stenciled and layered background panels and tied a piece of ivory twine around the stem. I embellished the acorn with a couple of  Stitched Leaves, which I added shading to, and two Upright Greetings: Fall sentiments heat-embossed with ivory embossing powder. I finished up by adding a larger sentiment from the Happy Fall stamp set, also heat-embossed with ivory embossing powder and then die-cut with the coordinating die. A few tiny oak leaves were the finishing touch. 

My next card features the latest addition to the Holder collection, the Mouse Holder, which I paired with the new Fall Holder Additions. I die-cut the mouse from kraft cardstock and added shading to the pieces before assembling them. I used ivory and black cardstock for the mouse details and Onyx Pearls for the eyes. I created another stenciled and layered background for this card using two new stencils, Gingham and Wheat Pattern, and used the largest Pinking Rectangle again too, die-cut from ivory cardstock. I stenciled the wheat pattern on an A2 ivory cardstock panel with honey yellow ink and distressed the panel with Gathered Twigs ink and splattered it with Fallen Acorn Mica Stain.

I stenciled the gingham pattern on light blue cardstock with gray ink and blended more gray ink around the edges of the panel for some distressing. I layered and secured the panels with liquid adhesive and attached the mouse in the center with foam squares. Then I die-cut and assembled a field of sunflowers to tuck around the mouse and added a stamped sentiment from the Happy Fall stamp set die-cut with the coordinating die. For embellishment, I added a few Matte Gold Confetti pieces.

My last card features a colorful bunch of Stitched Leaves on an ivory Pinking Circle that I stenciled using the Wheat Stencil and honey yellow ink. I added shading to the leaves and arranged them with an acorn from the Fall Holder Additions and finished with a tiny twine bow.

For the background panel, I started with a dark green cardstock panel trimmed to 4.25 x 5.5 inches and stenciled it with the Layered Windowpane Plaid and Forest Moss Distress Ink. I added distressing to the panel with ink blended around the edges and then spattered with a white splatter medium. I centered the Pinking Circle on the background panel, and for the ivory heat-embossed sentiment, I combined the word “Fall” with a sentiment strip, both from the Happy Fall stamp set. I finished this card with a few Matte Gold Confetti pieces.

Hello, crafty friends!! Brenda here with you today! I’m super excited to be sharing sneak peeks of the new August release! This release is packed with lots of Halloween and fall goodness!! I’m sharing sneak peeks of the Decorative Pumpkin Die, Pumpkin Face Shaker Dies and the Boo Word Shaker Die Set! You’ll also see a peek of a few other sets that are making their debut, as well!

My first card features the Decorative Pumpkin Die, a sentiment from the Boo Greetings Stamps & Dies and the previously released Spider Web Cover Plate Die!

I started by die-cutting the Spider Web Cover Plate from white cardstock and layering over a panel of purple cardstock.

Next, I die-cut the Decorative Pumpkin Die from orange, yellow, green and purple cardstock. The outline in the set was cut from white cardstock. I adhered the orange die-cut layer to the white background and inlaid the other colors into the openings. I added the black dots to the ghost’s eyes, then adhered the pumpkin to the bottom of the panel with liquid glue. 

The sentiment, from the Boo Greetings Stamp Set, was stamped onto white cardstock with purple dye ink. It was cut out with the Coordinating Die and popped up with foam squares. I adhered the black and orange spiders together, slightly offset, then popped those up with foam squares, as well.

My second card features the Pumpkin Face Shaker Die Set, Halloween Banner Greetings, Banner Greetings 4 and the Clouds Stencil!

I began by stenciling the Clouds Stencil onto a panel of white cardstock with Mustard Seed, Carved Pumpkin and Wilted Violet Distress Inks. I blended Mowed Lawn Distress Ink along the bottom of the panel, then die-cut it with the largest die in the Pinking Rectangles Die Set. It was splattered with diluted black dye ink, and once the ink was dry, adhered to panels of black and orange cardstock.

I created the shaker element with the Pumpkin Face Shaker Die Set. I taped the two pumpkin dies together and die-cut it once from orange cardstock and several times from heavyweight white cardstock. The solid layer was cut from orange cardstock and acetate, then stem and leaves from green cardstock and the face from black cardstock. I used Rusty Hinge and Rustic Wilderness Distress Inks to add shading to the die-cuts, then adhered all the pieces together, adding Candy Corn Carnival Mix and Halloween Fun Shaker Beads for the shaker bits. It was adhered to the background with liquid glue.

The sentiment, from the Halloween Banner Greetings Stamp Set, was white heat embossed onto black cardstock and cut out with a die in the Banner Greetings 4 Die Set, along with another layer from orange cardstock. The stick for the “flag” was cut from black cardstock using a die in the Summer Drink Shaker Die Set. It was adhered with liquid glue and the flag layers were adhered slightly offset, then it was popped up with foam squares.

My third and final card features the Boo Word Die Set, Mini Ghosts Stamps & Coordinating Dies, Halloween Silhouettes Background Stencil, Halloween Banner Greetings Stamps and Banner Greetings 4 Die Set!

I started by stenciling the Halloween Silhouettes Background Stencil onto a panel of white cardstock with Twisted Citron and Wilted Violet Distress Inks. It was die-cut with the largest die in the Stitched Torn Rectangles Die Set. The largest die in the Boo Word Die Set was cut from the background (be sure to hang onto the middle pieces of the letters). A piece of acetate was adhered behind the opening and I doubled up foam tape and filled the shaker with Boo Crew Mix and Potion Pop Shaker Beads before adhering a piece of orange cardstock to the back. It was then adhered to A2 panel of black cardstock.

The Boo Word Shaker Dies were taped together and cut from black cardstock to create the outline, then it was adhered to the opening over the acetate. The images from the Mini Ghosts Stamp Set were stamped with Copic-friendly black ink, colored with Copic markers and cut out with the Coordinating Dies. The sentiment, from the Halloween Banner Greetings Stamp Set, was white heat embossed onto black cardstock and cut out with a die from the Banner Greetings 4 Die Set! The ghosts and banner were adhered with liquid glue and this card was finished.

Here is more inspiration from the rest of the team…

Hi Everyone! It’s Melissa here with you today. I have got some tricks and treats for you! We are diving right into Halloween and there is so much to enjoy and have fun with.

I used the darling Halloween Mugs dies to create a gift tag for my bag of Halloween sweets. I layered up the new Stitched Arches dies to create a base for my Halloween Mug. The Stitched Arches dies are a delight to cut from patterned paper or add stenciling to. They come in six different sizes that nestle perfectly together.

I chose to use the adorable ghost mug for this tag, selecting googly eyes to add extra personality.  I added a topping of ice cream or whipped cream to the top of my mug and then added tiny candy corns and spiders to add extra detail.  My sentiment was stamped on a Banner Greetings 4 die and uses the new Halloween Banner Greetings stamp set.  

All that was left was to add my caramel apple candies to a glassine bag and add a fun, junk bow to the top.  Such a cute package of Halloween charm!

My next card uses the cutest Halloween dies ever! They are called the Halloween Caramel Apple dies and they are overflowing with possibilities and creative ideas.  

Once again, I used the new Stitched Arches dies to frame in my pumpkin caramel apple. I used the tiny pumpkin face dies to add personality to my apple. You can also create ghosts, spider webs, complete with plump spiders, and any combination of sprinkles and candies you can think of for Halloween.

My sentiment comes from the new Boo Greetings stamps and coordinating dies. The tiny bats flying around my greeting are also from this same set.
