Casing my friend with Caring Leaves & video

Last week I was out of town to see my son get married in the beautiful Grand Tetons National Park in Wyoming.

The photographer was incredible; I have to share some of her early shots with you.  It was a quick trip but we were blessed to be there for the small ceremony. We had a wonderful time driving through the stunning park with the photographer scouting out photo opportunities.  We're thrilled to add Katrina to our family!

Today I'm sharing the swap card I made for our Team card swap this month:

Caring leaves fall Save

My colors include Pretty Peacock, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Beige & Very Vanilla.  Peacock is one of my favorite 'outside the box' colors for autumn projects. 

Two of my favorite types of stamps are 2-step and Distinktive and this set is both!  It's a sweet & simple set & it's just $17. See it here.

When I was planning my card for the swap I came across the card on the left below.  It's one my friend Susie Wood made awhile ago. I loved the layout and cased it using the Caring Leaves set.

Casing a favorite card or layout is my go to when designing a new project. It's fun to switch up colors and products while using the same design. 

I created a video that's posted below.  I stamped the outline leaves on the large Pretty Peacock layer before embossing it with the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder. I also stamped an extra leaf to fussy cut and add under the tag.  See the measurements below.

  • The Gorgeous Leaves of Holly bundle is not just for Christmas!

    The Leaves of Holly bundle is back!  It was unavailable for awhile but it's back in stock now.  

    I made this pretty card for last month's Flowerbug's Team swap.  The theme was Fall or Halloween.  I wanted to show that this bundle isn't just for Christmas.  What do you think? 

    Leaves of Holly fall swap Save

    I used Bermuda Bay, Blackberry Bliss and a bit of Old Olive here.  The greeting is from the Charming Sentiments set seen here.  

    After I stamped the card panel I felt it was a bit busy so I added a layer of Vellum card stock over it.  I love the soft feel that the vellum gives!  

    Here's a peek at the Leaves of Holly bundle. It's full of pretty images and wonderful dies.  The greeting die-cut with the leaves attached is my very favorite; see it on the bottom left below. See it in my store here.

    For added texture I added sponging around the edge and on the die-cut leaves.

  • Pretty Soft Seedlings card & video; an easy fun fold layout

    I've sure been enjoying the Soft Seedlings stamp set.  The pretty maple leaf has so much texture and depth and the greetings are some of my favorites. I think I've used it more than any set in the Holiday catalog! 

    SOFT SEEDLINGS CLING STAMP SET (ENGLISH) Save

     We just purchased a red maple tree and planted it in our backyard this weekend.  It's red foliage is beautiful! 

    For this card I chose to stamp the leaves in two colors – Soft Suede & Coastal Cabana.  I know they're not correct leaf colors, but it's fun to go outside the box at times.

    It's one of my favorite fun folds; so easy to do and it can be jazzed up easily with elements & greetings.  

    I chose to stamp directly on one of the Leaf Label elements in the Leaf Label & Amber gem combo pack seen here.  Unfortunately they are out of stock right now; but it will be available again in November. 

    LEAF LABEL & AMBER GEM COMBO PACK Save

    The package includes 25 leaves and amber gems too; all for $8. They're so fun to play with; you can add texture, or stamp or sponge color on them.
