I've created many cards with this pretty, all seasons set. It's been a blast to work with. I've picked out 8 cards to include in a kit to go option and/or a tutorial. (details below)

There are 3 options for you but the best deal is the pre-cut cards kit along with the stamp set and a share of Linen thread. The pdf tutorial for the 8 cards will also include extra card ideas too!

  • Love of Leaves; make one cut and get two cards!

    Last week I shared a card featuring the Love of Leaves bundle.  *You can see it below.  Now I'm sharing the other card I made with the inside of the die-cut.  Cut once and make two cards using these stitched leaf dies!

    The Love of Leaves bundle is going to be a big favorite this fall!  See it here.

    • The die-cut is Soft Suede and the card base is Cajun Craze. 
    • The Pretty Peacock designer paper is from the new Magic in the Night Halloween Designer Series paper seen here!  As you can see, it's not just for Halloween!  
    • I also used the new Celebration Label dies seen here; I love the stitched shape of these!  
    • The stamped leaves image is created with the Life is Beautiful stamp set.

  • Life is Beautiful with a beautiful masked & sponged window technique!

    I like to join many online card swaps in groups with friends from all over the country; especially when new catalogs come out. 

    Here is a swap I made with my Life is Beautiful stamp set; the set I helped create as a Million Dollar Achiever with Stampin' Up!  I achieved this over a year ago but the stamp set just came out this month.  You can order it now here.

    I chose to use Bermuda Bay, Early Espresso and Very Vanilla card stock. The inks are Bermuda Bay, Early Espresso and Calypso Coral.  I absolutely LOVE creating masked windows! Sponging is a learned art and I have some great tips for you.  I shared this card on Facebook Live Tuesday, August 11th and uploaded the video to YouTube below.

    This card is one I am so pleased with.  It shows off the pretty images included in the set so perfectly.

    Do you make doubles or more of your favorite cards?  I actually really like making multiples of the same card.  But when you're doing a time consuming technique like this one it can little 'old'!  However, using the Stamparatus when making multiple cards is the ONLY way to go!  It sure makes quick work of making many of the same card.  I don't usually like to show my 'messy desk' pictures but you can see what happens to my desk area when I'm working! It gets smaller and so crowded! Ha!

  • Life is Beautiful swap with Love of Leaves dies

    Here's another card I made for an online card swap I joined in July.  I have been having so much fun playing with my Life is Beautiful stamp set!  

    July swap Save

    The colors are Bermuda Bay, Early Espresso and Pumpkin Pie; one of my favorite color combo's for Fall.  I added some sponging and a pretty die-cut from the Ornate Frames die seen here.  The Linen thread behind the greeting is simply a big bow. 

    This card is included in my August card kit to go.  The kit includes the Life is Beautiful stamp set AND an 8 cards pre-cut kit. You have through August 20th to get this kit and the pdf tutorial is also included. It's just $28; a steal for a stamp set AND cards kit!   Read all about it here.

    Did you notice the stitching on the bottom of this card?  That's done with the Love of Leaves dies seen here:
