Fall Colored Bouquet



Frantic Stamper is our fantastic sponsor for October and the winner will receive a fantastic die.  Here it is!
Priced at $25.99 - Prize for October

The challenge for October is Fall or Fall Colors.  You can work with the wonderful Fall colors or any holidays in October - for Americans, it's Halloween, so work your FALL MAGIC for us.

Frantic Stamper has so much to offer, stencils, stamps and dies.  We want to showcase some of the products along our month-long journey through October.  Frantic Stamper carries their own brand as well as many other well known brands, such as Altenew, Elizabeth Craft Designs, and Hero Arts.


For my project today I am inspired by wonderful golden/orange palette of the Fall foliage.  

I have an alcohol inked panel left over from another project and I want to use it differently.


So I die cut it with Altenew Layered Floral Elements Dies and created a Fall colored bouquet.  For the background panel I dry embossed it with a Hero Arts Flag Pattern Stencil.


I also layered my bouquet with some vellum die cuts to give it some 'air' and movement, otherwise the alcohol inked pieces look rather dense.  I embellished the bouquet with a few art pearls.

Poinsettia Christmas

Hi Dawn here again.  Have you seen all the amazing companies that our sponsor this month has in stock?  Yes the Frantic Stamper site is chocka block full of amazing products.



Although our challenge this month is about Fall/Autumn, I have chosen to make a Christmas card as it's the time of the year I start thinking about making these types of cards (except it's Spring time where I live!)

I have used the new Hero Arts Antique Poinsettia to stamp with Versafine Onyx Black ink onto red and green card and then used the matching Dies to cut out the flower layers.  I have not done anything about colouring the stamping just making the most of the coloured card.   I have used some PP from a very old MME Lost and Found Christmas pack and layered it onto some red card and then the white base.  One very quick and fun card done.

Be sure to visit our sponsor (here) as you will be surprised how much stock is on hand.  And do remember to add your Fall oar Fall Holiday cards to our challenge this month.
