You Autumn Know…Paper Players Challenge: PP559

Greetings!  Today I’m playing with some cute and fun new stamps from Lawn Fawn.  As soon as I saw this new release, I knew they would be coming my way!  I also knew they would be perfect to create a clean and simple Autumn card for this week’s  Paper Players challenge… 

 The stamp sets I used are You Autumn Know stamps and coordinating dies along with Scripty Autumn Sentiments. How adorable are these little mice floating by to celebrate Autumn.

Here’s a look inside…

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope you’re looking forward to the first weekend of Fall.  Here in PA, the weather finally promises to cool down.

Take care,

Rosanne

Once again, I’m having a lot of fun playing along with the Tic Tac Toe Challenge…

I choose two options from this fun board…

  • 3rd column down:  brown/beige, wood, animal
  • 3rd row across:  foliage, plaid, animal

MFT Sweater Weather Fall Card- Rosanne Mulhern

This card was so much fun to create.  I really enjoyed building this fun, fall scene starting with Lawn Fawn’s Leafy Tree Backdrop die against a plaid pattern also from Lawn Fawn.  The Leafy Tree Backdrop is cut with Soft Suede card stock.  I covered the tree with a piece of woodgrain paper from my stash.

Now onto these adorable sweater clad critters.  These come from My Favorite Things’ Sweater Weather stamp set.  I colored them with a combination of Copic markers and SU Stampin’ Blends.  The leaves are stamped and cut with the SU (retired) Beautiful Autumn bundle.  

Lastly, the sentiment is stamped using the Power Poppy Feeling Fall stamp set.  It’s so appropriate on the eve of the Autumn Equinox.  

I’m so ready for Fall…how about Y’All?  Thanks very much for stopping in today and I hope you have a wonderful day.

Take care,

Rosanne

 

 

 

 

 

Pretty Pansies for the Paper Players Challenge – PP558

Stampin Up Pansy Patch Birthday Card Idea- Rosanne MulhernWelcome!  Today I’m sharing a card featuring the SU Pansy Patch bundle.  I used the Pansy Patch stamp set, the Pansy dies and the coordinating Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper.  My card inspiration came from the Paper Players PP558 Challenge.

Along with the challenge colors, I added Garden Green as the 4th color.

The card base is Blackberry Bliss card stock.  I layered it with the pretty loopy scalloped edged frame from Gina Marie Designs and a Blackberry Bliss panel.  The top white panel is stamped with a sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Blackberry Bliss ink.

The pansies were cut from white card stock.  They’re sponged with Rich Razzleberry and Polished Pink ink.  I also sponged some of the leaves with Garden Green ink while I cut others with Garden Green card stock.

CASEing Coast to Coast: Holiday Gate Fold

Stampin Up Frosted Gingerbread Fun Fold Holiday Card - Rosanne Mulhern

Welcome back to another cross country CASEing (Copy and Selectively Edit) trip with Karen Hallam in CA and myself, here in PA.  This month we are creating gate fold cards.

My holiday card features the Gingerbread & Peppermint Designer Series Paper along with dies from the Gingerbread Dies.

The card bases measure 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ scored at 2 1/8″ and 6 3/8″.  Each side panel is embellished with a mat of Old Olive card stock and a pattern from Gingerbread & Peppermint DSP.  The colorful snowflakes are also cut from the DSP using the Gingerbread dies. I cut snowflakes from heavy card stock and layered two on each snowflake to give them dimension.  These are glued to the left side panel.  The sentiment, from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set.  It’s heat embossed with black embossing powder and glued to the left side panel, as well.

As always, thanks for stopping by today.
