Fall Is In The Air!

Fall is finally here! The weather is finally a little cooler and the leaves are starting to change colors - I love it!

Today's cards are perfectly fall and so much fun! We have a Remix - a  FALL Remix called - Autumn Splendor. I created some "falling leaves" layouts using two different papers and different mediums to see what the differences would produce - they both make me smile out loud and I can't decide which one I prefer!

The first card is a one layer card using Neenah Dessert Storm (kraft). The leaves were colored with Polychromos pencils which are so wonderful on kraft. The colors just pop! I tried to create some dimension with shadows. It was a fun challenge and I am really happy 
with the results.


My second card uses Canson watercolor paper, Brushos, and a Falling Leaves Stencil for a background panel and then for the focal point, I colored up the leaves with Inktense pencils for a watercolor look.



These were fun! I hope you are inspired to test out different papers and mediums and see what happens!

Thanks for stopping by!

Sweet Autumn

Hello Sweet 'n Sassy friends!  Have any plans for the weekend?  How about heading over to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store to catch the good news…The Sweet Perks Club is back!  YEA!!   It's Cathy here, sharing a few cards to get you ready for the fall season which is quickly approaching…and yes, each card features some of the fabulous stamps and dies that are part of the new Sweet Perks Club release.

This first card uses the new Autumn Leaves Bundle.  Memento inks were sponged onto the background and spritzed with water removing some of the ink creating a little texture.  The leaves were stamped on another sponged panel and die cut.  The Skeleton Leaf Background was embossed with Seafoam Powder and the color was sponged over the embossing.  The sentiment was stamped in the corner…stitching, seam binding, and pearls were added to finish the card.

My second card features the Prim Blessings Bundle…oh this is such a cute set…love all the sweet images and sentiments in this bundle!

A stencil was used to sponge a honeycomb pattern on the background with some sunflowers stamped on a few of the hexagons.  Three sunflowers were colored with Copic Markers and placed inside the die cut frame along with the little crow.  The sentiment was stamped and the little heart added as an accent.  This was cut and matted with Spellbinders Nesties.  Pearls and Baker's Twine tie everything together to finish the card. 

So what are you waiting for?  You can find all the SWEET details for the Sweet Perks Club by clicking the logo below.

Thanks so much for stopping by…we love hearing from you!

Have a wonderful weekend!
