Nuts About Squirrels Fall Catalog Showcase

Hello! Today I am featuring 3 projects that you can find on page 49 in the July-December Mini Catalog. These projects are meant to show how one stamp set can be used by someone at any level in their crafting experience. The first photo is geared towards beginners, the next your casual crafter, and the last the most avid. I hope you enjoy them!

This project features the stamp set Nuts About Squirrels and uses 3 different color inks. Early espresso for the outlines/acorn cap and Sahara Sand/Pumpkin Pie for the squirrels bodies. The images are stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock and the card base is Cajun Craze. To see a list of the supplies you would need to create this card, click here.

This card for our casual crafters uses everything we used in the first card, but adds a few other elements. For example the leaves hanging off of the tree are stamped in Cajun Craze, Old Olive and Crushed Curry. The card base was stamped prior to adding the front panel with the leaf veins stamp, and a panel of Old Olive was placed between the front panel and the card base to add a bit of interest. They also added a banner of Crushed Curry cardstock for the sentiment. To see a list of the supplies you would need to create this card click here.

This third card has all the bells and whistles, and adds upon the previous two cards. They added a fourth layer by placing a panel of Beauty of the Earth DSP between the Old Olive cardstock and the card base. They also used the Meadow Moments embossing folder to give texture and dimention to that green panel. The last thing they added were the Decorative Matte Dots embellishments topping off a beautiful and fun fall card. To see a list of the supplies you would need to make this card click here.
