Fall Harvest Cards

By KariV on September 12, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have some fun Fall Harvest cards to share using some of my favorite fall colors…I am in love with plaid backgrounds (especially for fall and holidays), so I brought in some plaid with the cutest pumpkin, carrots, and apples!

These produce dies are just the cutest! And I cannot resist that apple bucket with gold foil accents!!

Gold foil brackets for this apple basket!

I started off by stamping the backgrounds with the plaid background stamp. I tried lots of colors on different cardstocks. My favorites were the Distress Oxides for this stamp. This looks like a white ink on the red background, but it’s actually Fired Brick Distress Oxide!! It’s lighter than the cranberry cardstock, so it looks white…what a cool look.

I have a video showing you the entire process and just how easy it is to make these cute harvest cards! I’m a part of a Fall Video Hop with PRIZES, so take a look below, or in HD on YouTube:

How Rare and Beautiful You Are

By KariV on September 10, 2019 in Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m sharing a quick FALL card on my blog and YouTube channel. It feels like fall could be just around the corner for us here in Arizona…the days are cooler (less than 100 degrees!), and clouds are covering the sky today! I love fall.

We don’t get the changing leaves and fall colors here where I live, so I have to re-create that magical look on a card. Fall cards might be some of my favorites!

I have a quick video (less than 5 minutes….what?!) to show you the process for this card with fall colors! Watch it below or on YouTube:

How does the time fly by so fast? It’s September and already we are looking to the holidays coming up. But for now, let’s focus on FALL. I first inked up the background with stencil brushes and these new-to-me FALL ink pads from Scrapbook.com. I love these ink pads….they are hybrid inks so they are great for stamping, inking, watercoloring! Today they worked a charm for blending those fall leaves very quickly.

I die cut the inked panel using the Leaves cover die, then added that to three more die cut layers to create a sturdy piece. Then I layered those leaves on top of gold glitter paper. Fall always makes me think of gold, glitter, magic. 🙂 I added the sentiment strip and a few extra leaves to finish the card.

I’ve compiled a list of the products I’ve used, using affiliate links when possible. I’m often asked about the products, so this will make it easy.
