Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch for the Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop

Good Morning! Welcome to the September Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop! The theme for this month’s hop is “Giving Thanks” and I used the Stampin’ Up! Pick of The Patch bundle to make today’s card. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post and I included the card stock cuts in the description of each card

I embossed a Crumb Cake panel with the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Pecan Pie card base. I adhered a Pecan Pie plaid panel of the Lets Go Fishing designer series paper to the embossed panel with liquid glue.

I stamped a little fall pumpkin scene on Very Vanilla with the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set. I stamped the tree in Pecan Pie and the leaves in Daffodil Delight. I stamped the smaller pumpkins in stamped off Wild Wheat, Calypso Coral and Petal Pink. I cut masks and used them to stamp the stems in Pecan Pie. I stamped more leaves in Daffodil Delight on the ground and cut the scene out with the largest circle from the Stylish Shapes dies.

I adhered the circle to the card with liquid glue. I stamped the larger pumpkins from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set in Calypso Coral, stamped off Lost Lagoon and stamped off Crumb Cake on Very Vanilla and punched them out. I stamped speckles on the pumpkins using the same colors. I punched out stems from Pecan Pie card stock and adhered them to the back of the pumpkins. I adhered the two smaller pumpkins to the card with glue dots and the larger pumpkin with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set in Pecan Pie ink on Very Vanilla and cut it out with the long skinny die from the Stylish Shapes dies using the two step method. I adhered it to the card with dimensionals and glue dots and adhered a loopy Linen Thread bow underneath. I finished the card with Very Vanilla dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set in Pecan Pie on a Very Vanilla Panel. I stamped the pumpkin in Calypso Coral ink and covered it with a mask before stamping the stem in Pecan Pie. I stamped speckles on the pumpkin and adhered a strip of DSP to the bottom before adhering the Very Vanilla panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I just love the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch bundle – it has so many pretty pumpkin stamps! And I love the coordinating stamps and great sentiments too!

Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch Blessings Card

Good Morning and Happy Monday! The Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch bundle is a fun stamp and punch bundle that is perfect for Fall and Holiday crafting! The stamp set has so many cute pumpkin and other fall stamps and some of them can be punched out with the coordinating punch. I paired it with the Glorious Gingham designer series paper and the wonderful Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder for today’s card. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Glorious Gingham 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to a Basic White mat and popped it on the front of a Pecan Pie card base with dimensionals. I cut two Basic White panels with the 3rd and 4th largest Deckled Rectangles dies and embossed the smaller one with the pretty Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder. I adhered the embossed rectangle to the larger one and wrapped them with Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine and made a bow.

I stamped two large pumpkins from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of the Patch stamp set in Pumpkin Pie and Petal Pink inks and punched them out. I stamped the smaller pumpkin in stamped off Lost Lagoon ink and punched it out. I stamped the last crooked neck one in Crushed Curry and fussy cut this one. I used the speckled stamp to decorate each pumpkin in the same color ink and adhered them to the die cut rectangles with glue dots and dimensionals.

I stamped the leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set in Mossy Meadow and the stems in Pecan Pie and punched them out. I adhered them to the pumpkins with liquid glue. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set in Pecan Pie ink on Basic White and cut it out with one of the Deckled Rectangles dies using the two step method. I adhered it to the panel with glue dots and popped the panel onto the card front with dimensionals. I finished the card with three Iridescent Pastel gems.

For the inside of the card, I adhered a strip of DSP to the bottom of a Basic White panel and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

This could be a simple fall themed note card or a lighthearted Thanksgiving card. The Stampin’ Up! Pick of The Patch bundle is also great for Halloween – I think that’s the next project!

Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch Thank You Card

Good Morning and Happy Friday! Today’s card uses the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch bundle and is CASE’d from the Sept – Dec 2023 Mini Catalog – I loved the layered Countryside Corners dies and stamped top panel, so I wanted to try to make something similar. I did make some changes and you can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to the front of a Crumb Cake card base with liquid glue. I cut a panel of Basic White with the second largest Countryside Corners die and embossed it with the Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder before adhering it to the card front.

I used a Blending Brush to apply Pool Party ink to a Basic White panel and stamped pumpkins and leaves from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch photopolymer stamp set all over – kind of like making your own DSP. I used Gray Granite and stamped off Pumpkin Pie for the pumpkins, stamped off Wild Wheat and Crumb Cake for the leaves and Pecan Pie for the vines and stems. I cut it out with the third largest Countryside Corners die and popped it on the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped the large pumpkin from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set in Pumpkin Pie and Petal Pink and punched them out. I stamped the sentiment in Pecan Pie and punched it out. I punched stems from Pecan Pie and leaves from Old Olive and adhered them to the pumpkins before adhering them to the card with dimensionals. I made a linen thread bow and adhered it to the back of the sentiment and popped it on the card front with dimensionals. I finished with Crumb Cake speckled dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch stamp set in Pecan Pie ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to the bottom of the panel and adhered a punched pumpkin to the corner. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin Seal.

The projects in the catalogs are great inspiration for using stamp sets and designer series paper. There are so many different styles and techniques that are used and it’s fun to experiment and try different things. I hope you like my version of this thank you card made with the Stampin’ Up! Pick Of The Patch bundle.
