Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The Stampin’ Up! Gathering Moments bundle is great for Fall cards and Thanksgiving. I used it with the Gathering Together designer series paper for today’s card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a sketch challenge this week:

Adhere a panel of Gathering Together specialty designer series paper to a Cajun Craze card base with liquid glue. Adhere another panel to an Early Espresso mat and adhere it to the card front with dimensionals. Cut another panel with the third largest Stylish Shapes circle die and adhere it to the card.

Stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Gathering Moments stamp set on Basic Beige using Early Espresso ink. Cut it out with the small angled Traditional Labels dies and adhere it to the card with glue dots. Fold a length of irregular weave ribbon and adhere it to the card with glue dots.

Stamp the leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Gathering Moments stamp set twice using Cajun Craze ink on Basic White. Stamp the mushroom and two sets of berries using Early Espresso ink and cut it all out using the coordinating dies. Adhere the berries and leaves to the card with glue dots and the mushroom with dimensionals. Make an Early Espresso bow and adhere it with a glue dot and finish with Early Espresso dots.

For the inside, stamp the leaf and berries from the Stampin’ Up! Gathering Moments stamp set using Cajun Craze and Early Espresso inks in the corner of a Basic White panel. Trim the bottom with DSP and adhere the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Fall foliage peaked this week by my house and driving around the countryside has been just beautiful. The Stampin’ Up! Gathering Together bundle captures the beauty of the season perfectly!!
