Stamping Tips: 

I noticed when I stamped my gingerbread directly on a surface I did not get a solid Image.  See Image below.

 

 

But when I added the Stampin’ Pierce Mat with the Impressions Place I got a great solid image.

 

 

 

 

I would highly recommend combing the 2 together to get the best impression.

In my video, I share some tips on using colored pencils on top of the Stampin’ Blends.  Thanks to my dear friend Patty for this new addiction inspiration.  I love how it truly adds that pop of color to the image.

Create 2 Fall Cards from 1 Easy Card Template

Today I am sharing how I Create 2 Fall Cards from 1 Easy Card Template featuring the Painted Pumpkins Bundle. It was so fun to Create 2 Fall Cards from 1 Easy Card Template just by changing up the colors and a few little details.

For my original sample, I used Flirty Flamingo, which I absolutely loved. But I wanted to change things up and go with a little softer look using Petal Pink.

It always amazes me how simply changing a color can give the exact same card template a completely different feel. That is one of my favorite things about Template Thursday! You don’t need to reinvent the wheel every time you sit down to craft. Start with a template you love, switch up the colors, Designer Series Paper, or embellishments, and you have a whole new card.
