Welcome to the August 2020 InKing Royalty Blog Hop! This month’s theme is Autumn Weather. To make my card, I used the Freezin’ Fun Bundle (Freezin’ Fun and Freezin’ Friends Dies,) Snow Time Dies, Autumn Punch Pack, Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper, and lots of colors of card stock.
To set the scene, imagine, this cute little bunny just minding his own business, hanging out in a big pile of leaves. And then all of a sudden, a big gust of wind threatens to move the pile right out from under him. Poor little guy. He doesn’t seem to mind though. As a matter of fact, he seems to be enjoying having his ears flapping in the wind.
Since I wanted the leaves to look like they’re blowing off the card, I made the card base 5-1/4″ x 4″ (just a tad smaller than the usual 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″.)

Welcome to the August 2020 ICS Blog Hop! This month’s theme is Punch Me Out, and we’re featuring Stampin’ Up!’s amazing punches. I used the Autumn Punch Pack and coordinating Beautiful Autumn stamp set for my project today, as well as the Pinewood Plank 3D Embossing Folder. The embossing folder creates the background for the wreath, which is one color (white) but made of two different leaf types. To make sure the wreath turned out round, I drew a circle on the background layer by tracing a Gold Hoop Embellishment with a pencil, and glued the leaves around that.
Be sure to hop around to all the stops to see all the projects from this great group of stampers!

Sep 18, 2019 | Autumn, Bags, Blog Hop, Gallery, Gift Wrap, Gifts, New Products, Paper Pumpkin, Tags |
It’s time for the Inking Royalty Blog Hop for September! This month’s theme in Autumn. And what could be more Autumnal than beautifully colored leaves? For my project, I used products from the Come to Gather Suite to decorate a gift bag from last month’s Paper Pumpkin kit. (You can see another project I made using these bags here.) From the suite, I used the Gather Together bundle (Gather Together stamp set and Gathered Leaves Dies) and Come to Gather Designer Series Paper.
I was going to use the Come To Gather Ribbon Combo Pack as well, but I got so carried away with the leaves, I didn’t think it needed it. I used each embossed leaf die (3 in the set) to cut two each of four colors – and I used 18 of the 24 leaves I cut! Guess I just couldn’t stop until I had a big leaf pile! Doesn’t it make you want to jump in and scatter them?
Be sure to hop all the way around to all the stops. You don’t want to miss any of the great projects from this talented group!
