We are creating this cute Fall Gnome card in today’s project using parts of the Rustic Harvest Suite.
I am absolutely obsessed with the Kindest Gnomes and Fall. So I could not help but combine them together. This layout really showcases this beautiful Rustic Harvest Designer Paper.
To color my little gnome, I used my Stampom’ Blends that coordinated with the colors in this Designer paper. I love these color combos together. So rich!! For his Hat I wanted it to look a little worn so I used the Color lifter to do that.

Today we are creating a Double Gate Fold Card using the Kindest Gnome Set from the 2022 July-Dec Mini Catalog.
For this card I started with an 11″ x 5 1/2″ piece of Balmy Blue Cardstock and scored at 1-1/4″, 3-3/8″, 7-5/8″ and 9-3/4″. Using the Storybook 12 x 12 Desginer Paper made the perfect winter scene for our little gnome buddy. I decided to a removeable belly band 1″x 11″ to help keep the card closed.
I used the Following Blends to color my Gnome image: Light Smoky Slate, Light Crumb Cake, SU 900, 200 Nuetral Blends, Dark Balmy Blue, Dark Mint Macaroon, and the Color Lifter for his hat. Finishing off with the Fine and Sparkle Embelishments.

Today’s project I am making this adorable Christmas Santa Cow Card. I paired the Sale-A-Bration Hippest Hippos, coordinating dies with the Jingle Jingle Jingle Set I have absolutely fallen in love with these hippos.
I could not resist turning the hippo into a Santa Cow. When I saw the Jingle Jingle Jingle Stamp Set and saw the Santa Hat I immediately knew I wanted to create this. I stamped the Hippo and Hat in Smoky Slate for a softer stamped image. To color my Cow, I used the Natural Tones Light Combo for the belly and mouth. Light Flirty Flamingo for the ears and of course Dark Basic Black for the spots.
DIMENSIONS:
Card Base (Real Red) – 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″ or folded in half
Basic White x 2 – (1 for the inside piece) 4″ x 5 1/4″

Today’s Project is a super fun Slimline Card using the adorable Sunny Splash Stamp Set. This can be found on page41 from the Stampin’ Up! 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. When I saw this set I immediately knew I was going to create a slimline card with an “Itsy Bitsy Teenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini”.
The background circles are in the brand new 2022-2024 In Color 6×6 Designer Paper in Tahitian Tide. I used the 2nd Largest Circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies.
To Create the Polka Dot Bikini, I masked out the middle with Post It Tape. Inked the Image in Daffodil Delight, removed the tape, and stamped the image.
DIMENSIONS:
Cardbase 7″ x 8 1/4″
Layer 1 Basic White Layer 3 1/4″ x 8 1/4″ (x2) You will need one for the inside of your card
Layer 2 (Same color as cardbase) 1 7/8″ x 7 1/8″
Top Basic White Layer 1 3/4″ x 7″
I had so much fun with these colors I decided I wanted to make a Paraket Party one as well. I ended up using my Parakeet Party Stampin Blends to splatter for one final touch.
Although I wish they had cute dies to cut out the suits I found it really easy to fussy cut them out as well as the sentiment. If you know me I am not a huge fan of fussy cutting.

Today’s Project is a Simple Layout Card using the Sweetest Cherries Bundle from the Stampin’ Up! 2022-2023 Annual Catalog.
In my area, we have these amazing Cherry Farms. I remember as a little girl I would love to go Cherry Picking and my absolute favorites were Rainier Cherries or as I called them the pretty Yellow and Red ones. So when I saw this bundle in the catalog I absolutely knew I needed them because it instantly brought me back to my childhood.
To create the perfect Rainier Cherries and first Inked my cherry stamp in Daffodil Delight and using a sponge dauber I inked that in Sweet Sorbet around the edges. Now that was the perfect color, but I wanted to add some additional shading with our amazing watercolor pencils to give it that color some extra pop. I used Real Red and Daffodil Delight in the pencils.
