Happy Fall and Happy Halloween!

This card was made using the baby wipes technique.  I folded a baby wipe in four and then squirted drops of Crushed Curry, Cherry Cobbler, and Cajun Craze all over it.  I took the two leaf stamps from "Colorful Seasons" and put them on the baby wipe, using it as the ink pad.  It gives it a marbled/speckled look.  The words are also from the same set but any words could be used with these pretty leaves.

Night in Bethlehem

This Z-fold card was made from the "Night in Bethlehem" set.  I cut the buildings with the coordinating edgelits in Very Vanilla and Crumb Cake.  I placed them on a Night of Navy background and added some Wink of Stella to give it a little sparkle (hard to see in this picture).  The top picture is the card closed.

Watercolor Sunflower

I stamped this card on Shimmery White card stock with the "Painted Harvest" set in Daffodil Delight (first layer) and Pumpkin Pie (second layer).  I stamped the center in Soft Suede and the leaves in Old Olive.  I used an Aqua Painter to spread the water around and give it a diffused look .  I also added some Pool Party around the sunflower.   The background was made with the Seaside Embossing Folder and I added some Linen Thread around the middle.

Blessed

This card was made using the clear blocks as stamps.  I inked the colors (Tangerine Tango, Crushed Curry, Old Olive) onto the blocks and then spritzed them with water before stamping them on the card stock.  Then I stamped the leaf from "Colorful Seasons" in Early Espresso over the top.  The words are from "Paisleys and Posies".  I made the background splatter spots with a stamp from "Timeless Textures" and added some Crushed Curry Baker's Twine.

Hearts Come Home

This cute little village is from the set "Hearts Come Home".  It has coordinating edgelits dies with three different town type scenes.  I used thick Whisper White card stock on a Night of Navy Base and cut it with the Big Shot using an Adhesive Sheet.  It's so easy and quick to just "peel and stick".  I finished the card of with some Night of Navy Gingham Ribbon.

Just Peachy

Here's a different take on the sunflowers.  I used Peekaboo Peach, Pear Pizzazz, and Soft Suede.  The sunflower and words are from the "Painted Harvest" stamp set.

Christmas Quilt

This embossing folder is one of my favorites called Quilt Top and looks just like the pieces of a quilt.  I added some DSP from the Quilted Christmas stack and the words are from "Christmas Quilt".  There also some coordinating framelits and these cute little embellishments.  Here are two same but different cards in Real Red and Garden Green.

Sunflowers

Here's another new stamp set from the Holiday Mini.  It's called "Painted Harvest" and has a coordinating leaf punch and DSP (Painted Autumn).  I stamped the flowers first with Daffodil Delight and then with the top stamp in Crushed Curry.  The leaves were stamped off first in Garden Green for the background and then full strength for the veins.  Then, I punched them out with the Leaf Punch.  The centers were stamped off in Early Espresso and then full strength for the dots.

Woody

This is a great masculine or fall card that can be used for any occasion by changing the words.  These words are from "Colorful Seasons" and I used the coordinating Seasonal Layers Thinlits to make the leaf along with a Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet so I could just "peel and stick" it on a square from the Wood Textures DSP.  The background was made with the Layered Leaves Embossing Folder.

Spooky Cat

This cool cat was made with the "Spooky Cat" stamp set and cut out with the coordinating Cat Punch.  The paper is from the Spooky Night collection and has both orange and black cats that also fit precisely in the punch.  The sky was made with the Card Front Builder Thinlits and I finished it off with some black Vintage Crochet Trim.

Three Leaves

Is it fall yet?  I made this card using the Seasonal Layers Thinlits and cut them out in Crushed Curry, Fresh Fig, and Tangerine Tango.  I made the speckles/spots/grunge with a stamp from "Every Good Wish".  The "thanks" is from "All Thing Thanks".
