I am so thankful for the new Stampin' Hot Foil system by Stampin' Up! ® It's so easy to use and adds such beautiful accents to all my projects. I'm so glad I invested in this brand-new tool. Have you seen the new hot foil colors? We have added copper, silver opal, red & green to the lineup. I'm loving the copper foil for my fall leaves and backgrounds. My card tonight was inspired by a card I saw Sara Douglas make using this layout and some of the products I've pulled together. Her card was all about Christmas, but I'm not quite there yet....I still need my fall, Halloween and Thanksgiving projects! With that being said, let's make a fall card using some new items from the September product releases. You can follow along with me and make a card of your own using my video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this direct link.
A place to share my love for paper crafting as an independent Stampin' Up!®️ Demonstrator.

Embraced with Love anniversary card
Today’s card features more Last Chance products I think you will love. Be sure to get these before they sell out. When I first created this card I made it as a get well card. As this is the third card I made, I decided to turn it into an anniversary card. Both sentiments are in the same stamp set. To see how I put my card together, watch the video over on my YouTube channel.

Frosted Forest Masculine Thinking of You/Birthday card
Hello everyone! I hope you had a fabulous weekend. For the kids here in Sheridan, this is the last week of summer vacation. I plan to soak up the most of it with our grandkids and spend some time at the beach this week. The weather is supposed to be nice, but often when it's nice here at home, it's not so nice at the beach. Hopefully, we'll have good enough weather to play in the sand.
Now onto my card for today. I made the original card you see here for my husband for our 44th wedding anniversary last Friday. When I made the card during my YouTube live, I switched out the inside sentiment for a birthday card. Either way, the design works well without changing the sentiment on the front. I do love how it turned out. You can watch the YouTube replay to see how I put the card together.

Hearts & Hugs Anniversary card
My featured this bundle is the Hearts & Hugs bundle by Stampin' Up! I'm so happy you stopped by! I thought the walrus image from this bundle would be perfect for an anniversary card. This is a quick and easy card to put together as the Designer Series Paper does a lot of the work for you. A little stamping, coloring and die cutting, and everything is ready to go! Of course, for an even faster card, you don't have to color the walrus couple.

Over the Moon Udderly fantastic
Today’s card uses one of my favorite sets from the annual catalog (I have quite a few!) The set is called Over The Moon (149331). For this card I started with a basic black card base cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" scored and folded in half at 4 1/4". I took a piece of whisper white cardstock cut at 4" by 5 1/4" and ink blended with balmy blue and granny apple green ink. I used makeup brushes I purchased from Amazon to achieve the effect. I stamped the grass clumps in granny apple green ink, then stamped my remaining images in Momento tuxedo black ink. My little cow was stamped on a scrap piece of whisper white, stamped and colored with Stampin' Blends markers, then fussy cut and added to the card with dimensionals. Blends markers I used were dark lovely lipstick, light basic black, petal pink combo, dark smokey slate, light so saffron, colorless blender, dark soft suede and dark mango melody.
I hoped you've been inspired today. If you are in the USA and would like to order to any products I've used (or anything else you might fancy), please click on the shopping cart. I'd love to earn your business. Until next time, make it a great day and happy stamping!

Always and Forever Painted Harvest wedding card
I fussy cut the flowers and tree stump. The leaves were punched with the leaf punch (144667) which is also a carryover from the 2017 holiday catalog. With wedding season coming soon, this would make a lovely card in any color scheme.
