Okay here we go….Fall is in the air and YES, we had to turn our heat on, it was freeeeeeeezing here the other day!  I love Fall but guess what comes after that?  Fall is filled with color and delicious smells….LOVE IT!  Today’s card embraces this time of the year using an old technique called Poppin’ Pastels.  I’ve added a twist to this and used our Poppin’ Pan Pastels.  This technique has never been easier than with these delicious colors!  So let’s get started.

H Rainbow Technique

idy Ho Stampers,

Well, September is here and the nights are getting colder in Upstate New York (days are still warm) but you know the fall is coming.  It’s one of the prettiest seasons we have.  The Fun Stampers Journey stamp set called Falling Leaves (SS-0387) shows off this time of the year.  I love this set and it’s found in the Journey Holiday Mini (which ENDS on September 30th).  I used the Rainbow Technique to create this card .

Using this stamp set with the Rainbow Technique,

I think it came out gorgeous! I’m pleased with it.

THEN….I used the same technique to create this second card…

I mounted all the sayings from the stamp set onto ONE block

and made a collage.

Then I embellished both cards

using the Snapshot Frame Die Set (DI-0045)

Two different cards using the same technique,

same stamp set and look how different they look!

I LOOOOOVE to stamp!  :0)

So let’s take a look at how I did this…you will be amazed.  If you are viewing this from your email, click here to see the video!  You WON’T want to miss this.

H Great Outdoors

idy Ho Ho Ho Stampers,

It’s time to start our Christmas preparations – I know I know you are saying it’s still SUMMER but as a crafter, you can never start too early for a holiday!  I wanted to start with this card because this is a stamp that can be found in our 2016 AUGUST Bloom Box – the kit includes the stamp set called The Great Outdoors.

I call him “Decorated Moose”

I used the mini jingles, the silver journey thread

and tinsel trim (a must for the holidays)

If you are interested in this set (Great Outdoors) you may want to sign up for a monthly subscription to our Bloom Box – it’s Fun Stampers Journey’s Kit in the Mail (just go to my website www.funstampersjourney.com/debvalder and click on SHOP, enter the number KO-0001 and you will start your subscription).  I love that I can try out all the different papers and embellishments to see if it is something I may need to buy more of for my crafting needs.  This month I fell in love with the designer paper.  It comes from the Mother Nature prints.

here’s a little different version

I used some Christmas lights I had in my craft supplies.

look at his big horns, they are dimensional

watch my video to see how he is put together!

If you are watching this from your email, click here to view the video – some tips and tricks you just may want to see (wink wink).

seeee…isn’t that the cutest set ever! It’s a must have!

here are the rest of the cards in the Bloom Box…

papers, thread, star and some great tips and techniques

all included in the kits.

this is a great “go-to” set for the man in your life!

I can “bearly” stand it, so cute!

everything is cut out ready for you to stamp and put together
