Colorful Pumpkin Patch

Posted on by Shauna Todd

Hi Creative Friends,

We are inching our way to Fall. To help get a little closer, we have created an Autumn card design using the new turnabout stamp by Concord & 9th called Pumpkin Patch. These clever turnabout stamps are so much fun to use and they create a great background. This one is autumn-filled!

Hey, before getting into the ins and outs of making the card, we wanted to remind you that a new Papertrey Ink release has just dropped and as always, you can save 13% on all things Papertrey Ink until Thursday, August 31st – coupon code is 13AUG2023

Grateful For You – a beautiful maple leaf

Posted on by Shauna Todd

Hi Everyone,

I always look forward to this time of the year where there is a burst of Fall leaves. Concord & 9th has the perfect one with their gorgeous die set: Thankful Leaves. It creates a fabulous leaf and the gracious Grateful sentiment is from the same release. I know I will be using these dies over and over again.

Take a look at this version.

Note: For those of you that received the blog post in your email today, I made a big boo-boo! I forgot to mention the “Grateful for you” sentiment is from the Concord & 9th Grateful die set. This blog article has been changed to reflect the correct information.

Golden Leaves by Heather Telford

Posted on by Shauna Todd
Happy Thanksgiving to all our Canadian friends,
Whether you celebrate Thanksgiving in Canada (today) or in the U.S. (in November), it is a wonderful day to spend with family and friends.  And for all those that you can’t be with on that momentous day, it is a great time to send a special card to let them know you are thinking of them.

The card we are presenting today is done by the extremely talented, Heather Telford of Bits and Pieces blog (www.cards.heathertelford.com).  Heather is renowned for exquisite watercolor projects and this Thanksgiving card is no exception.  She has created a vision of beauty using the Penny Black Grateful Stamp Set and Peerless Watercolors.  She has even created a video on how she created her watercolor paletted and used her Peerless Watercolors.  It is simply brilliant.  Be sure you don’t miss it.  It is featured after her card below.
