Earlier this month my Flowerbug's Team held a Fall Sampler swap. We each created one element and made multiples of it for everyone in the swap. These swaps are super fun to make! The only rule we have is that everything is current Stampin' Up! product and the colors coordinate with the Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper.
Isn't it amazing!? We had enough people to make two! I'll share the other one tomorrow.
I adhered each piece on a 12" sheet of the In Good Taste designer series paper. This texture style paper is on sale right now in October! But there's just two days left to get it! Go here to order yours.
I used Granny Apple Green & Shaded Spruce here. I stamped the outline of the trees in Shaded Spruce and then added color by using the coordinating stencils with ink and blending brushes. (Pecan Pie ink is used on the tree trunk).
Here is an example of the dies with a few coordinating stamps & stencils.
I hope you watch the video hereor below to see the many ways to create with it. I share a unique way to add extra detail to the large tree. It gives an easy 'leafy' texture.
A layered banner greeting across the bottom finished it off nicely. The birds are also included in the bundle. I used Pecan Pie to stamp them and then a blender pen to spread the ink a bit.
I created a display for the Christmas Label dies that coordinates with the bundle seen here. I love these so much! The dies aren't just for the Holidays!
Most of these are swaps I received; only the two on the right lower edge are mine. I love swapping – especially to get samples of products I didn't buy and to show styles that are different from mine.
It's Black, White & Basic Gray with just a hint of yellow. That gorgeous Black die-cut behind the flower adds fabulous detail. The White layer is textured with the Layered Florals 3D embossing folder seen here.
