Happy Thanksgiving

Wednesday, October 23, 2024

Hi friends. I'm back today with another card featuring the Autumn Memories collection from This Calls for Confetti. There is a 6x8 stamp set, a Quick Color stencil, and a coordinating die set available. If you've missed the other cards I have created with these products, click here, here, and here.

To get started, I stamped the large frame image from the Autumn Memories stamp set with brown ink onto a panel of kraft cardstock. I used the Autumn Memories Quick Color stencil to quickly color in the images. I used the coordinating die to cut out both the outer and inner portion of the focal image. 

I then took one of the patterned papers from the Speckled 6x6 paper pad and embossed it with the Bamboo Trellis 3D embossing folder from Spellbinders. I then added splatter with some Fallen Acorn Distress Mica Stain.

I added this panel to a piece of dark brown card stock and then it was all added to a kraft A2 notecard. I stamped one of the sentiments from the Autumn Memories set inside the frame portion and then finished off the card by adding in some enamel dots.

I hope you have a wonderful day. Thanks for your visit and crafty hugs! ~ Alanna

Autumn is the Season Shaker Card

Friday, October 18, 2024

Hello friends. I have a fun shaker card to share with you today featuring the beautiful Autumn Memories collection from the Alice's Story collection from This Calls for Confetti. There is a 6x8 stamp set, a Quick Color stencil, and a coordinating die set available.

To get started, I stamped the large frame image from the Autumn Memories stamp set with brown ink onto a panel of white cardstock. I used the Autumn Memories Quick Color stencil to quickly color in the images. I added this panel to a kraft notecard that measures slightly larger than A2 size and also stamped one of the sentiments from the set inside the frame portion.

I then added several frames that were die cut with the largest die from the Hello Elongated Frame die set. I die cut about 5 of them and glued them together. A piece of acetate was added to the top and then I added one more die cut frame. The top frame was sprayed with some Unravelled Distress Mica Stain.

My shaker card was filled with the Bokeh Dazzle Dots Confetti.

I hope you have a wonderful day. Thanks for your visit and crafty hugs! ~ Alanna

Hi friends.  I have a fun beautiful card to share with you today featuring the beautiful Autumn Memories collection from the Alice's Story collection from This Calls for Confetti. There is a 6x8 stamp set, a Quick Color stencil, and a coordinating die set available.

To get started, I stamped the large frame image from the Autumn Memories stamp set with black ink onto a panel of white cardstock. I then used the Autumn Memories Quick Color Stencil to color in the image. I used the coordinating die set to cut out the image. I took the Elongated Ovals A2 Cover Plate die and embossed it with my Platinum 6 machine. I sprayed on some Unravelled Distress Mica Stain onto this panel and rounded the corners. I added the focal image and then finished off the card by adding in a few white pearls.
