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.
Isn't it beautiful? She used the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and dies bundle and the In Good Taste DSP. If you want to know how to make this Double-point fun fold card here's a link to a video I made.
I am so grateful for the fabulous friends I've made; both online and in person. I would say I have the best job ever; but it doesn't feel like a job! I'm loving it. And like my stamp set says, Life is Beautiful!

The colors are the new In Color Just Jade with Early Espresso & Real Red. See the tiny 'apples' on the tree? Well I wanted just a few apples from the large bokeh dots image. I have a surprising way of stamping just a few of the stamp image. I dare you to try it! Watch the video below to see what I did!
That pretty stitched shape is from the Celebration Label dies seen here. There are 5 sizes of this shape in the set!
There are times I like to color and others that I don't. I came up with this cool technique using the Wink of Stella pen and White Craft ink to highlight my main image.
I pressed a clear block directly onto my White Craft ink pad and used that to pick up the ink with my Wink of Stella pen. You sure don't have to use a clear block but I didn't want to get Wink of Stella in my ink pad. You could use a paper plate or any other non porous surface.
I used Purple Posy, Pool Party and Seaside Spray on the cards below.
I also used Versamark to create a background effect on the card base, stamping the main image multiple times. I love how soft a Versamark background is and I don't use it near enough. This repetitive stamping could be very busy if done in black or a darker color.
Here's the video with 3 different coloring techniques!
