more than autumn Archives - Inkspiration Cards

If you’ve been following me for a little while, you’ll know that I love joining in my large team’s card swaps. They’re such a great way to find inkspiration. AND it’s a great way to see projects with products you don’t have! A new catalogue is here so that means we’re having another card swap. The big things to remember are to use a stamp set from the new catalogue (e.g. More than Autumn), no online exclusives and make sure to add an embellishment.

For my design I’m using the More than Autumn stamp set. It’s such a fun stamp set and really versatile. My colour combination is inspired by fall. So I’m using Crumb Cake for my card base and Pumpkin Pie for my card mat. For all my stamping I’m using Very Vanilla. I really like the softer, more subtle colour for Fall themed cards.

I stamped my sentiment at the top and bottom of my card front using both Crumb Cake and Pumpkin Pie ink. Then on top of that I layered a strip of Country Woods Designer Series Paper. Next I stamped my Pumpkin Spice latte with Crumb Cake ink. The pumpkin is stamped with Pumpkin Pie ink of course. And then the whipped cream is stamped with Basic Beige. I coloured the cup and pumpkin with the Watercolour Pencils (assortment 1). If you’re light with your pressure the Early Espresso works well as an almost Crumb Cake. Then I framed it with another piece of Pumpkin Pie cardstock and popped it up with a few Stampin’ Dimensionals. To finish is off I added Wink of Stella to the whipped cream and a few of the orange Faux Glass Dots.

Once I get all the cards from my team’s card swap, I’ll pick a few of my favourites to share here.

In the meantime, check out another card I made using the More than Autumn stamp set here.

September is here! And with a new catalogue and Fall just a couple of weeks away I’ve been having some fun with one of the new bundles from the September-December Mini Catalogue… aka the Holiday Mini. The More than Autumn stamps and dies are great for any occasion. For this post though I’m sharing a fall themed handmade card.

The image of the slice of pie totally caught my eye and inspired the design of this card. So with this being a fall themed handmade card I went with the obvious choice… pumpkin pie! I’m using Pumpkin Pie for the card base and one of my ink colours. The other colour is Pecan Pie. On top of the Pecan Pie card mat, I stamped a few Pumpkin Pie pumpkins. Then I embossed the cardstock using the 3D Cane Weave embossing folder. But before I attached it to the card mat I added a little bit of the Natural Polka Dot trim. And with this you’ll want to cut a little extra. The trim is a bit stiff and so you’ll want that extra to make is easier to tie a simple knot like I did.

From here, I stamped the image of the slice of pie using Early Espresso ink. I didn’t want the lines of the image disappearing when I coloured it with Pumpkin Pie and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Write markers. I framed this piece of cardstock with some more Pecan Pie cardstock and then popped it up with a few Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then on top of the trim I stamped my sentiment with both ink colours. I die cut it using the Something Fancy dies and then popped this up with a couple more Stampin’ Dimensionals.
