Little Pumpkin Butterflies


Ingredients:

Card/Paper: Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla, Haiku designer paper
Ink: Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie
Stamps: Pocket Silhouettes, Live Your Dream, Fresh Cuts
Other: 1/4" Pumpkin Pie Grosgrain ribbon
Card Size: 9.5cm x 9.5cm (3.75" x 3.75")

Method:

This is the second of the make and take cards from our stampers ten meeting this month. Simply stamped across the Vanilla card with one of the Pocket Silhouettes stamps, alternating Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive - the Old Olive was stamped off once first on scrap paper to lighten the shade. A very quick card - even with cutting out the little butterflies!

Pumpkin and Vanilla Flowers


Ingredients:

Card/Paper: Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Very Vanilla
Ink: Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Black Stazon
Stamps: Cheer and Wishes, Canvas
Other: Black brads, 5/8" Old Olive Grosgrain, Linen Thread
Card Size: 15cm x 10.5cm (approx 4" x 6")

Method:

This is one of the make and takes from my last stampers ten meeting.

The base card was stamped with the Canvas background stamp. We scalloped the edge of the Pumpkin Pie card, and then scored two lines and pricked a design along the scallops. The ribbon is tied with a piece of linen thread which goes through two holes poked in the Pumpkin Pie layer and hidden behind the ribbon. The flowers are made using the scalloped circle punch, and two of the flower shapes from the Boho Blossoms punch.
