Fall is Coming!

 

 

I love the colors of Fall and am looking forward to cooler days, colorful leaves and wearing sweaters! Pink & Main's newest release is filled with warm and wonderful Fall goodies! I'm sharing two projects today featuring some of the newest products...

For my first card, I created a gate fold window card (at least that's what I'm calling it - lol). I created a base taking a 10.5" x 5.5" piece of white cardstock and scoring at 4.25" and 8.5". I layered a plaid pattern from the Year Round Plaid paper pad on the front and inside/front of card then cut out a circle using one of the Layered Circles Dies. I continued to layer the panels with cardstock (center panel) which I also stamped the pumpkin image using a light colored ink and sentiment, Year Round Plaid pattern paper (right/inside side panel) and Year Round Dots & Stripes pattern paper (right/outside panel). Using one of the Stitched Circle dies, I cut Coffee Shop cardstock, gold embossed the sentiment and attached to the back panel making sure it lined up with the opening on the front.

The images are from the new Happy Harvest stamp set with coordinating die and Fall Mice with coordinating dies. The pumpkin image is adhered to the front of the card at the bottom of the circle opening. I added the little mouse image to the circle on the back panel so when the card is closed, it appears he is in the 'pumpkin patch'.

 Now for my second card...

 

Snow globes are not just for the winter time! The new Fall Snow Globe Scenes set completes the seasonal Snow Globe Scene collection. Use the images with the Empty Snow Globe stamps and Dies or on their own - either way the images are SUPER cute!

 

For my card, I used one of the Stitched Rectangles Dies Set #1 to cut a pattern in the Pumpkin Season paper pad and adhered to the card base. As a backdrop to the snow globe, Coffee Shop cardstock was cut one of the Stitched Circle Dies. I created a shaker element using Empty Snow Globe stamps and coordinating dies, placing this adorable bear/pumpkin image from the Fall Snow Globe Scenes set. The sentiment is also from this stamp set.
