Grungey Fall

Hi stampers!  Hello from the farm!  I spent yesterday and part of the day today with my momma.  I think fall is officially here as the weather was gorgeous yesterday and then it was all rainy this morning.....darn it since I was planning to go run while my mom was at her volunteer job.  Oh well.  The sun was coming out earlier but now it looks to be gloomy again as I peek out the kitchen window over the valley.  Have I mentioned I love it here?  The only thing to make it better would be to have my stamps here :-)

So in honor of the fall weather (I do prefer the sunny over the rainy....) I have a fall card.

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  Harvest of thanks, gorgeous grunge, off the grid
Paper:  Very vanilla, crushed curry, soft sky, sweater weather DSP
Ink:  Chocolate chip, crushed curry, soft sky
Accessories:  Apothecary accents framelits, linen thread, naturals designer buttons, epic day washi tape

For some reason this card just seemed to fit the day.  It's not a gloomy card but the splatters and stuff just spoke to me today I guess.  It's also the first time I've used the off the grid background which I love!  It adds just the right touch!

And don't forget about my spooky banner class that you can come to in person or get for FREE online! Check it out on my classes and events page!

Happy stamping!

Fab Friday 26

Hi stampers and happy Friday!  I've been having a nice little couple of weeks "off" :-)  I've been relaxing and not even stamping much!  Say what????  I know, I need to fix that!  I did get a little something stamped for the next Fab Friday challenge!  This week's colors come straight out of the holiday catalog!

I pretty much feel like September is the start of fall even if the calendar and weather differ!  I love fall!  The leaves changing, the cooler/chilly weather, sweaters and hoodies and leggings, boots, and of course the Starbuck's pumpkin spice latte!!!  I haven't had one yet as it's still too hot but I'll get one once it cools off a bit!

I of course made a fall themed card with these colors because...well...because I just HAD to and I HAD to use some of the sweater weather DSP!  I also love making a background with the truly grateful large image.  I just stamp it in different directions and boom...instant background!

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  Truly grateful, harvest of thanks
Paper:  Very vanilla, chocolate chip, tangerine tango, crushed curry, sweater weather DSP
Ink:  Chocolate chip, sahara sand, tangerine tango, crushed curry, soft sky
Accessories:  Chalk talk framelits, apothecary accents framelits

I stamped my corn twice and cut the yellow ones out and adhered them with glue dots so they are just slightly raised for some dimension.

Now make sure to play along with us at Fab Friday!  We can't wait to see what you make!  Grab a latte if it'll help :-)

Happy stamping!
