Leaf Shaker card featuring Craftin Desert Divas

Hi everyone!!

Today is my design team day for Craftin Desert Divas
and I have a Fall shaker card to share with you.

I am loving the products from this release, they are so fun and perfect for the leaves changing all around us! For this card I used the new "Hey Pumpkin" stamp set.

Close-up of the sentiment:

I used the sentiment "Rake, Pile, Jump & Smile" from the Hey Pumpkin stamp set.

I stamped it several time in the background and once to help it stand out.

This card turned out so fun! Look at all those happy leaves!

I love watching the leaves turn all the beautiful colors of Fall!!

Thinking of you autumn cards featuring Miss Kate Cuttables

Hi Everyone! 

 Today I am sharing two cards featuring Miss Kate Cuttables SVGs.

 For my cards, I used the "Autumn Tree" file. Fall is quickly approaching and for some of us, its already here! I love having thinking of you cards on hand and one I made for a special friend.

 

I made a distressed background with vintage photo, spiced marmalade and mowed lawn then added some water droplets and some Gold Color shine mist from Heidi Swapp. Then I cut the "Autumn Tree" file from Miss Kate Cuttables. I stamped the little girls from "In My Heart" by Mama Elephant, then colored with colored pencils and paper pieced her with the Authentique Thankful collection. I then added some orange embroidery floss to her hair and some buttercup liquid pearls to her shoes and dress.

I distressed all the layers of my 5x5 card with vintage photo distress ink.

My sentiments are from So Happy by Verve stamps and In My Heart by Mama Elephant.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today and make sure to check out all the amazing files at the Miss Kate Cuttables' Store and to get your daily freebie!

Have a wonderful day!
