Hello, Fall! I'm in love with this Fall paper. I have a tough time with gorgeous papers because I really want the paper to shine. But I also want to use it because it is so pretty. Something this pretty really needs to be shared with a friend. Add in those gold leaves.. and it really steps up the look of the card. Those gorgeous gold leaves come in two sizes. They are a perfect addition to any Fall project. Today is the last day of the … [Read more...] about Those Gold Leaves

Crisp Autumn Days
Sometimes your paper is so pretty it really doesn't need much to enhance it. I added the stamped sentiment to the top right corner and a couple embellishments. The sentiment almost looks printed onto the paper. Many of our pattern papers are hand painted by Stampin Up's art team and then reprinted for our use. The pattern papers are so pretty, I have a hard time using them. But, I've decided it's better to use and share the beautiful … [Read more...] about Crisp Autumn Days
Splendid Autumn
One of my favorite pattern papers from the September-December Mini Catalog is the Splendid Autumn pack. It's a 6x6" pack of paper with gorgeous autumn prints on one side and colored patterns on the reverse. The yellow daisies is one of my favorites in the pack. I paired it with the Autumn To Remember stamp set, which is featured in our new online Scrapbook Catalog. Our Catalogs have lots of fabulous items in them, but our online store … [Read more...] about Splendid Autumn
September Paper Pumpkin-Autumn Abundance
The first day of Fall was yesterday and September's kit is the perfect complement to the season. I just received this kit last week and could not wait to put it together.

I love all the beautiful leaves in the cards and the envelopes. If you missed out subscribing in time to get the September kit, I have … [Read more...] about September Paper Pumpkin-Autumn Abundance
November Sampler-Harvest Time
It's time for November's Sampler Kit.. Harvest Time! Thinking about harvesting, I picture fields of corn or pumpkin patches. And with farming, you've got to have a scarecrow to scare away the birds. This was a theme that was requested by a couple different people. I hope they enjoy my vision of harvest time. Several people have asked what I do with the samplers. I use them as home decor pieces in my home. I change it out every month … [Read more...] about November Sampler-Harvest Time
One More For The Road
Today I'm sharing my last card for now with the Trucking Along Bundle. This is also one I used for recent customer thank you cards. This stamp set has several different options for things to go in the bed of the truck, like the flowers, a stack of gifts, and a tree. I used the pretty flowers for todays card. The flowers are two different stamps - the outline and then the fill color. This allows for easy stamping without having to do everything in … [Read more...] about One More For The Road
It’s The Great Pumpkin!
I'm back today with a card using that mini truck from the Trucking Along bundle. I added one of the smallest pumpkins from the Pick of the Patch set and it barely fits in the truck bed. The Pick of the Patch bundle has a coordinating punch, but this particular pumpkin doesn't fit the punch so I had to hand cut it out. This is one of the cards I used for my September thank you cards. Every customer who places an order or subscribes to Paper … [Read more...] about It’s The Great Pumpkin!
