Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn Card Video Tutorial

Good Morning! Today I’m sharing a clean and simple card made with the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn bundle accented with leaves and acorns punched from the beautiful Gilded Autumn specialty designer series paper. You can find the supplies used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

Here is the Facebook Live video showing how I made the card:

I will post an edited version of how I made the card in my YouTube channel later this week so you can view a quickie version.

Emboss a Very Vanilla panel with the Pinewoods Plank embossing folder and adhere it to a Very Vanilla mat with liquid glue. Pop it on the front of a Thick Very Vanilla card base with dimensionals. Punch out Cajun Craze and Mint Macaron leaves and Crumb Cake acorns from the Gilded Autumn specialty designer series paper with the Autumn Punch pack from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn bundle.

With the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, cut out the fancy layered labels, the large one from the speckled Crumb Cake paper in the Gilded Autumn paper pack and the smaller one from Very Vanilla card stock, Stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn photopolymer stamp set in Early Espresso ink on the Very Vanilla label and adhere it to the DSP label. Pop the labels on the card front with dimensionals.

Adhere the punched leaves on the label with liquid glue and adhere the acorn with a dimensional. Make a bow with the Very Vanilla ribbon and adhere it with a glue dot. Finish the card front with three champaign rhinestones on the label.

Adhere leaves and an acorn to a Very Vanilla panel with liquid glue. Adhere a strip of the Crumb Cake paper from the Gilded Autumn specialty designer series paper to the bottom of the panel and adhere the panel to the inside of the card.

The Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn bundle is so versatile and it has great sentiments. The leaves and acorn could have easily been stamped in any color palette and then punched – but it’s nice to have beautiful DSP that can be die cut or punched like I did here. And the images in this stamp set are so beautiful in a clean and simple card with a textured Whisper White or Very Vanilla background. And the bonus is that they can be made fairly quickly with stunning results.

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn Hello Fall Card

Good Morning! Here’s a Fall hello card made with the pretty leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn bundle, the Playful Alphabet Dies and the wonderful Plaid Tidings 6″ x 6″ designer series paper. You can find the supplies used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I cut a panel of the Plaid Tidings designer series paper with the Stitched Rectangles Dies and adhered it to a Pretty Peacock Mat. I cut three each of the F-A-L-L letters from the Playful Alphabet Dies and adhered them together so that each letter was three deep. I stamped the hello sentiment from the Best Year cling stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink on a strip of Bumblebee card stock and cut it out with the small long stitched rectangle die using the two step die cutting method.

I stamped six maple leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cajun Craze ink on Cajun Craze card stock and cut them out with the coordinating punch. I cut a panel of vellum with the Stitched Rectangles dies. I adhered the letters leaves and label to the vellum panel.

I adhered the vellum panel to the DSP panel with glue dots placed behind the letters, leaves and label. I made a loopy bow with Linen Thread and adhered it to the label. I finished the panel with three Bumblebee enamel dots and popped the panel to the front of a Bumblebee card base with dimensionals.

I adhered a strip of the Plaid Tidings DSP to the bottom of a Whisper White panel and adhered the last three of the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn punched maple leaves. I added a Pretty Peacock mat before adhering it to the inside of the card.

I love using vellum on cards and I also love die cut words, so this card combines two of my favorites with the pretty Plaid Tidings paper for a card to welcome Fall!

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning! Welcome to another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! For today’s blog hop, I pulled out the beautiful Gilded Autumn specialty designer series paper with its copper foil leaves and decided to let it be the star of the show. I simply added a beautiful thank you label stamped with the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn stamp set. You can find the supplies used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

We have a sketch challenge this week, and here is the sketch we are using:

I embossed a strip of Mint Macaron card stock with the Subtle 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the side on the front of of a Mint Macaron card base. I adhered another panel of Mint Macaron card stock to the back of a panel of beautiful Gilded Autumn specialty Designer series paper and adhered the thin strip of brushed copper foil next to it. This makes the DSP a little stronger and allows me to pop it on the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn photopolymer stamp set in Soft Suede ink on a small panel of Mint Macaron card stock and cut it out with a die from the Stitched Rectangles Dies. I cut the top of the large fern from the Forever Flourishing Dies from a piece of Vellum card stock and adhered it to the back of the label.

I cut the cute loop trim from the Painted Labels Dies from brushed copper foil and adhered it to the bottom of the label. I adhered a copper ribbon bow to the front and adhered the label to the front of the card with dimensionals. I finished the card front with three pearls.

I stamped two leaf sprigs from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Soft Suede ink on a Whisper White panel. I added a strip of the Gilded Autumn DSP to the bottom of the panel and adhered it to the inside of the card.

The Gilded Autumn specialty designer series paper is gorgeous and makes it really easy to make beautiful fall cards.

Stampin’ Up! Arrange a Wreath Video Tutorial

Good Morning! Today I’m sharing a Fall card made with the Stampin’ Up! Arrange a Wreath bundle that I made during my Facebook Live video tutorial yesterday afternoon. Actually, I used three different stamp sets for this card. I pulled in the pumpkins from the Gather Together stamp set and the oak leaves and acorns from the Beautiful Autumn bundle. You can find the supplies used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

Here is the Facebook Live video showing how I made the card:

I will also edit and post a concise tutorial on my YouTube Channel, so look for that soon. You can now find my edited YouTube video here.

I started by stamping the sign using the boards and sentiment stamps from the Stampin’ Up! Arrange a Wreath photopolymer stamp set in Sahara Sand and Soft Suede inks on Whisper White. I cut out the sign with a thin white outline. I stamped the pumpkins from the Stampin’ Up! Gather Together photopolymer stamp set in Cajun Craze ink on Whisper White and colored it with Mossy Meadow and Pumpkin Pie Stampin Blends. I fussy cut the pumpkins with my paper snips. I also used the Gathered Leaves Dies to cut a small embossed maple leaf from Pear Pizzazz card stock.

I stamped six oak leaves from the Beautiful Autumn photopolymer stamp set in Soft Suede ink on Bumblebee card stock and punched them out with the coordinating punch from the Autumn Punch Pack. I stamped three acorns from the same set in Soft Suede ink on Sahara Sand card stock and punched them out. I die cut the wreath from Cinnamon Cider Card stock using the Wreath Builder Dies. I embossed a panel of Soft Suede card stock with the Pinewood Planks 3D embossing folder and adhered it to a Cinnamon Cider mat. I adhered the wreath to the embossed panel using liquid glue and adhered linen thread using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered the die cut leaf with glue dots so that it covered the Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the pumpkins together with liquid glue and popped them on the wreath with dimensionals. I adhered the oak leaves and acorns with glue dots, tucking the ends behind the pumpkins. I adhered the Bumblebee gingham ribbon to the sign with glue dots and adhered the sign to the top of the wreath with dimensionals. I finished off the wreath with Bumblebee enamel dots and adhered the piece to the front of a Sahara Sand card base.

I adhered the last oak leaves and acorn to a Whisper White pane and adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

The Stampin’ Up! Arrange a Wreath bundle is so versatile!! The stamped images and sentiments support wreaths for many occasions and it can be combined with lots of other stamp sets to create any themed wreath for any occasion. And who doesn’t love a wreath?

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn Thank You Card

Good Morning! Today is the day for then new August – December 2020 Mini Catalog to open for orders!! Yay!! The NEW and improved Online Store will open at 7:00 AM (MT) – I can’t wait to see it. But until it opens, here is a simple Thank You card that you can make with items from the new catalog – the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn photopolymer stamp set and the beautiful Gilded Autumn specialty designer series paper. You can find the supplies used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a panel of the beautiful Gilded Autumn specialty designer series paper to the front of a Very Vanilla card base with Stampin’ Seal. I cut out a panel of Cajun Craze card stock with the label from the Tasteful Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front.

I cut the double sprig dies from the Sunflowers Dies from Copper Foil and adhered it to the card stock die cut. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn photopolymer stamp set in Versamark Ink on a strip of Very Vanilla. I sprinkled it with Copper embossing powder and heat set until shiny. I stamped the little pinecone from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Cajun Craze ink next to the sentiment and cut it out with the label die from the Tasteful Labels Dies

I adhered the label over the sprigs with dimensionals and added a copper ribbon bow.

I stamped more pinecones in Cajun Craze ink on a Very Vanilla panel and cut out a single sprig from Copper Foil using the die from the Sunflowers Dies. I adhered the copper foil die cut to the Very Vanilla panel and the trimmed the bottom with a strip of the Gilded Autumn DSP. I adhered the panel to a CajunCraze mat and then to the inside of the card.

This is a very simple card that is very dramatic with the foil designer series paper. And because it’s Stampin’ Up! you know that the copper foil and ribbon will coordinate beautifully with the DSP (as well as the Cajun Craze card stock and ink). (NOTE: As I pulled together my product list, I discovered that the Copper Embossing powder retired a few months ago and is no longer available. My apologies. If you don’t have it from before it retired, I recommend using the Gold embossing powder instead.)

Enjoy shopping the new items from the Aug-Dec 2020 Mini Catalog!!

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn Card Video Tutorial

Good Morning! Today I’m sharing a note card made with the upcoming Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn bundle that I made during my Facebook Live video tutorial yesterday afternoon. This is a versatile photopolymer stamp set that comes with the Autumn Punch Pack. It is in the upcoming Aug-Dec 2020 Mini Catalog and will be available on Aug 4. You can find the supplies used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

Here is the Facebook Live video showing how I made the card:

I also posted the video to my YouTube Channel and you can view it here if you prefer.

I embossed a panel of Very Vanilla card stock with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder and adhered it to a gold foil mat. I adhered a panel of the gold foil accented Mint Macaron paper from the Gilded Autumn specialty designer series paper (available Aug 4) to a gold foil mat and adhered it to the layered embossed panel with liquid glue. I adhered a length of basketweave Mint Macaron ribbon (available Aug 4) to the panel with Stampin’ Seal and glue dots.

Using the small embossed starburst circle from the Tasteful Labels dies, I cut three circles from Soft Suede card stock. I used the Autumn Punch Pack from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn bundle (available Aug 4) to punch out the gold foil leaves and acorn from a sheet of the Gilded Autumn specialty DSP (available Aug 4). I adhered the punched foil images to the Soft Suede die cuts and adhered them over the ribbon with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn stamp set (available Aug 4) in Versamark ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I sprinkled it with gold embossing powder and heat set until shiny. I cut it out with the stitched label die from the Tasteful Labels dies and adhered it to the card front. I added the gold metallic pearls and adhered the panel to the front of a Mint Macaron card base.

Since this is just a note card, I added a strip of the pretty Mint Macaron and gold foil DSP to the side of a Very Vanilla panel and adhered it to the inside of the card. This leaves plenty of room to write all your important thoughts!

The beautiful Gilded Autumn specialty designer series paper along with the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn bundle will be available on Aug 4 – just a few short weeks away! But if you’ve thought of becoming a Demonstrator, now is a good time because you can add these products to your $99 starter kit now. Contact me for details.

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn Beautiful Day Card

Good Morning! Today I have CAS clean and simple card that is a sneak peek of the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn stamp set that will be available August 4 when the new August – December 2020 Mini Catalog opens. You can find the supplies used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I stamped the leaf cluster from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink on a small panel of Very Vanilla. On top of it, I stamped the sprig in Cinnamon Cider ink and cut out the image with the second smallest Stitched Rectangle die.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn stamp set in versamark ink on a strip of Very Vanilla and sprinkled it with gold embossing powder. I heat set the sentiment until shiny and cut out the words with my paper snips.

I embossed a panel of Very Vanilla card stock with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder and adhered it to a Very Vanilla mat. I applied some Stampin’ Seal in the lower left corner where I wanted to place the stamped panel and wound some gold thread on the adhesive. I adhered the stamped and die cut panel on top with dimensionals. I adhered the gold embossed words with multipurpose liquid glue next to the stamped panel. I popped the panel on the front of a Thick Very Vanilla card base and finished the front with a gold metallic pearl.

I stamped the same design in the lower left corner of a Very Vanilla panel and adhered it to the inside of the card.

The pretty Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Autumn stamp set will be available on August 4. It is a versatile set with two-step stamps, coordinating punches and great sentiments that are suitable for any time of year!
