I had so much fun playing with this Release and have 4 projects to share with you today. So let's get started.
Fall and You Are My Favorites! For my first card I decided to create a fun fall themed postcard featuring the new August Mouse and Fall Postage Stamps sets.
I stamped the images from the August Mouse Stamp and Fall Postage Stamps Stamp sets onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating August Mouse Dies and Postage Stamp Dies to diecut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.
COPIC COLORS:
Mouse: E50/51/53/33, RV000/30
Scarf: BG53/45, YG01/03, Y38 YR04
Acorns: E21/23/25, Y25/27/29
Leaves: Y17/38 YR04, YG03 Y38 YR04
Squirrels: E53/33/35/37, E000/00, R20
Green Leaves: YG03
Teal Border: BG45
For the background, I took a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock (4.25" x 5.5") and lightly ink blended with Carved Pumpkin and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide inks.
For the postcard style design, I adhered the squirrel stamp to the panel with liquid adhesive and stamped several of the sentiments from the the Fall Postage Stamps set with a combination of Memento Tuxedo Black and Versamark Satin Red inks.
I adhered the mouse image to the postcard with foam tape for additional dimension and interest. The card front was adhered to an A2 white card base (4.25" x 5.5").
You're the Sunflower in My Field of Dreams! My second card showcases the absolutely adorable new Field of Dreams set. Aren't these scarecrows just the cutest?! Hmmm, I think these scarecrows are just too cute to scare. What do you think? As you can see the adorable scarecrow on the right has already befriended one of the crows. This super cute set is part of a new YUZU line and beautifully illustrated by our new Pink & Main illustrator, Yan Au @yanxdiy.
I stamped the images from the Field of Dreams Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Field of Dreams Dies to diecut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.

Crows:T1/3/5, Y38 YR04, R20
Flowers:Y11/13/15/08, E23/27, YG03/25
Grass: YG03
For the background, I took a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock (4.25" x 5.5") and lightly ink blended with Carved Pumpkin, Squeezed Lemonade and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide inks. Once the panel was dry, I used the largest die from the Stitched Rectangle set 2 Dies to trim out the panel.
For the sentiment, I stamped one of the sentiments from the set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a piece of white cardstock. I used one of the sentiment strip dies from the Large Sentiment Strip Dies to diecut it out.
The colored images and sentiment strip was adhered to the panel with a combination of liquid adhesive and foam tape for a bit of dimension. I added a couple of gems from the new The Oranges Sticky Gems to the sentiment strip.
The front panel was adhered to a white A2 cardbase (4.25" x 5.5").
Thoughts of You Warm My Heart! My third card is a clean and simple one featuring the new Pumpkin Spice Cuties Stamps sets. Are these not the cutest images?! This set completely stole my heart!
I stamped the images from the Pumpkin Spice Cuties Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Pumpkin Spice Cuties Dies to diecut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.

Gold Cup: YR31/21/24, YR24/27
For the background, I took a piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock (4.25" x 5.5") and lightly ink blended with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide inks. Once the panel was dry, I used the largest die from the Stitched Rectangle set 2 Dies to trim out the panel.
For the sentiment, I stamped one of the sentiments from the set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink directly onto the panel.
The colored images were adhered with foam tape for dimension and interest. Finally, the front panel was adhered to a piece of kraft cardstock before it was adhered to a white A2 cardbase (4.25" x 5.5").
Autumn Blessings! My final card is all about the upcoming fall season and features the new Lots of Leaves Dies, Season of Gratitude Stamps and Dies set and Burlap Embossing Folder.
I created the background by using the new Burlap Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of kraft colored cardstock. I used the beautiful shaped die that comes with the new coordinating Season of Gratitude Dies set to trim out the panel. Is this shaped die a nice bonus to this coordinating die set or what? It is a gorgeous and very versatile shape that I can see myself reaching for over and over again.
Next, I diecut the leaves using the Lots of Leaves Dies set out of Bristol Smooth cardstock. I lightly inked them with Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Brushed Corduroy, Vintage Photo, Ground Espresso, Dried Marigold and Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide inks.
For the sentiment, I stamped one of the sentiments from the Season of Gratitude Stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a piece of white cardstock. I used one of the coordinating Season of Gratitude Dies to diecut it out.
I adhered the sentiment and all of the leaves to the embossed panel with foam tape for dimension and interest. I finished the card with some gems from the new The Oranges Sticky Gems.
Finally, the panel was adhered to a white A2 cardbase (4.25" x 5.5").
