Harvest Happiness Watercolor Thankful For You Card with Vanessa

Hello everybody! Vanessa here with my Harvest Happiness card. We do not celebrate Thanksgiving here in Germany, so I chose to create a more neutral autumn card. The colors of fall make me so happy! 

First, I trimmed a piece of watercolor paper slightly smaller than my Kraft card base and stamped/heat-embossed the small leaves from the set with white embossing powder. Then I applied watercolors around the embossed images and added droplets of color around them. After it was dried, I adhered the panel to the card. I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment onto a strip of purple cardstock and adhered it. Now I stamped and heat-embossed the pumpkins onto watercolor paper, colored them with watercolors, fussy-cut them and adhered them with foam tape. To finish the card off, I added matching sequins.

Autumn is in full swing here and I am happy the pumpkin season has started! Nothing like a good Pumpkin Risotto :) What's your favorite pumpkin recipe?
Thank you so much for stopping by!

Harvest Happiness Thanksgiving Card with Lindsey

Hi, Lindsey here today with a fun Thanksgiving card featuring a stamp set from last year called Harvest Happiness. This set is just filled with sweet little images, so I decided to incorporate many of them in my card today. Let's get started!

I began with some fall plaid paper in an A2 sized stitched rectangle. Next, I cut another slightly smaller stitched rectangle from some Kraft cardstock. This is the panel I did my stamping on. I simply laid out the stamps I wanted to use on top of my Kraft cardstock and then stamped them out. I had to stamp some of the smaller images more than once to fill in some gaps. 

Next, I colored all my images with Copic markers and added some detail with a white gel pen. I outlined each image with a light gray marker to give a slight shadow around the images and really make them pop. To finish, I added foam tape to the back of the Kraft cardstock panel and attached on top of the plaid card base. That's it! This was a pretty simple yet fun card to create.

Thanks for reading! I hope you'll keep checking back to the blog for more great ideas using this fun set. I can't wait to see what you guys create. Have a great day!

Harvest Happiness: I Love You More Than Pie! by Anni

Hey stampers, Anni here!  

Here I am with my last card as a design team member for Sunny Studio Stamps. I had a great time. Mendi is such a sweet person and I am so thankful for this opportunity, but it is time to move on for me.

For this card I used the super cute set Harvest Happiness!

I stamped the image in Memento ink and colored it with colored pencils (Polychromos and Prismacolor). For a little extra touch I added some highlights with a gel pen. After that I fussy cut the image (there are also coordinating dies available).

I chose some matching patterned paper from my stash and cut it into a rectangle. I die cut a circle as a window and a frame from matching cardstock.  As my card base I decided to go with some kraft paper because I think it's great for fall cards.

I drew a circle with a pencil and a light hand on my card base where my circle window would be. That made it easier for me to stamp the sentiment with Versamark and emboss it in white (I love white on kraft, don't you?).

Thanks for stopping by and have a sunny week.

Holiday Release Update & Sneak Peek

Hello there friends!  I'm sad to say I've made the decision to push back our inspiration week and holiday release by one week due to receiving a late shipment of some of the new products.  I'm super bummed, but in the end I decided I would feel better having everything in hand before kicking the week off.  ;) 

However I promised you some peeks this week so I've put together a little collage of some of the projects I've been working on that I will now be sharing starting next Monday with a release date of October 7th.  

I hope you will join us for all the fun & festivities.  In the meantime, the team is sharing some amazing ideas for fall using our Harvest Happiness set this week.  Please scroll down to see Eloise's gorgeous card for the day.  :)

Big Hugs!

Harvest Happiness Layered Pumpkins Card with Eloise

Hello everyone, Eloise here and I'm back with a card featuring the Harvest Happiness set. I knew when I got this set I knew I wanted to stack the pumpkins up so that's what I'm doing for the card today.

To begin my card today I needed to make a ton of masks. So I took some masking paper and stamped down 4 of each pumpkin and a few leaves from the Harvest Happiness set I fussy cut them out to the line and then I could start stamping. I used some Versafine Onyx black ink to stamp down my leaves first, using the masks in between as needed. Once I had the layer of those at the bottom of the cardstock, I could stamp out my pumpkins - doing the same thing as I did for the leaves. Once I had finished stamping I used clear embossing powder so when I watercolour it can be faster and easier.

For the watercolouring today I'm using the Kuretake Gansai Watercolours. I used autumn-y colours and I also coloured the background too, to make it look complete.

To finish up my card I used a stitched rectangle die to die cut the panel down and to flatten it out, I then stamped down the 'autumn blessings' sentiment with some black ink also. I then popped it up on fun foam and mounted it onto a green card base and that finished up my card.

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you enjoyed and make sure you check by the blog this week to see more inspiration using this stamp set.
