October Anniversary Card

I wanted to create an autumn-y anniversary card for my son and his wife this year and, thanks for the Sale-a-Bration stamp set Textures & Frames, I pulled it off.

Textures & Frames Pumpkins
Did you “see” the pumpkins in the Textures & Frames stamp set when you first saw it in the Sale-a-Bration brochure?

 

After stamping the pumpkins and greeting I ran the 5-1/4″ x 4″ piece of Very Vanilla card stock through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Tasteful Textile 3-D embossing folder. ย Then I attached it to the 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ Very Vanilla Thick card stock with a bunch of Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The ‘Happy Anniversary’ greeting is stamped on the inside, again using Soft Suede classic ink.

 

Textures & Frames Pumpkins

It’s very hard to see, but there is a Soft Suede stem at the top of each pumpkin (but hidden by the ribbon!). ย I colored, with the Soft Suede Marker, the tip of one of the horizontal lines from the Textures & Frames stamp set, to form the stems. ย I created a mask with a sticky note to hide the pumpkin, before stamping the stem. ย The Old Olive leavesย were die cut, using the Detailed Pumpkins dies. ย Finally I used some thin scrap gold twine (non-SU!) to resemble the curly bits from the vine. ย (Not such a good job there!)

Product List

 

This is a fairly easy card that could be morphed to celebrate so many events. ย Stamp your image and greeting layer and then run it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine with a texturizing ย Embossing Folder. ย I used only two pieces of card stock: the 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ card front and the 5-1/4″ x 4″ stamped layer.

I’m glad you stopped by today. ย If you have any questions, please leave a comment and I’ll get back to you. ย You can also email me at blythe@stampingwithblythe.com.
