Deepest Sympathy with Autumn Silhouettes

Good morning! We are back again with another very simple card. This is a gorgeous sympathy card from Deb Felts using our Autumn Silhouettes as the focal image - absolutely perfect for a sympathy card. A simple sentiment and lovely designer paper all add to the calm and soothing feel of this card that is suitable for either gender. A truly lovely card!

Our silhouette sets are the featured items as our current Product of the Week. Grab them at 20% OFF through Saturday only! All the sale details are at the end of this post.


So very lovely - a perfect sympathy card!

I love the softly blended ink forming the backdrop for the wheat.

Eucalyptus Blessings

You so often hear me say that a card doesn't have to be complicated or take a lot of time, or a lot of supplies, to be absolutely beautiful. Quick, easy and simple is often best! Case in point on today's card from Esther Asbury.

Esther used one of the sets featured as our Product of the Week at 20% OFF this week. Get all the sale details at the end of this post.


Simply made and simply beautiful, and oh so captivating!

Blessings Word Die (die cut blessings)

Esther used a digital paper she printed, but any lovely designer paper would work.

Love how Esther used the colors from the designer paper for her focal image and die cut sentiment!

Thanks so much, Esther, for this lovely card.

Eucalyptus & Autumn Silhouettes - NEW Product of the Week

 Albeit a bit late, we are here today with our NEW Product of the Week! Each Sunday we post newly selected featured sets that are marked down through the following Saturday.

This week we are featuring 2 different silhouette stamp sets. Our Eucalyptus Silhouettes (with coordinating dies) are perfect for creating simple cards for a variety of events. The lovely eucalyptus stems are beautiful images for get well, wedding and sympathy cards, to name just a few.

Our Autumn Silhouettes contain 2 long-stemmed silhouettes, giving you so many design options. Use the long stems, or stamp off for shorter stems. The 2 stems also layer beautifully. This set makes for lovely fall and/or masculine cards with a more earthy/natural feel.

And what we love about silhouette stamps - NO coloring required!!!

Autumn Blessings Oak Leaf

As I so often say, a card doesn't have to be super detailed or take either a lot of time or a lot of supplies. Sometimes the simpler, the better. Deb Saaranen is here today and she excels in keeping it simple. Her single image on a sheet of woodgrain paper with simply cut sentiments says it all! Quick, easy, minimal supplies, flat for mailing and super attractive!

Deb used our Boho Fall Leaves, a part of this week's Product of the Week. Get it at 20% OFF through Saturday. You can read all the sale details at the end of this post.


Autumn Blessings - absolutely lovely!

Boho Fall Leaves (image, sentiments)


Deb colored her image with Copics and there is a lovely sheen on the acorns, created with Range Glossy Accents, a bit hard to see in the photos.


Thanks so much, Deb, for this stunning, quick and easy fall card!

Warm & Cozy Boho Pumpkins and Leaves

Sometimes when I look at a card, I just "see" something. Upon first glance at this lovely fall card Deb Felts is sharing with us today, I "saw" some rich and luscious fall fabric, perhaps intended for a tablecloth, placemat, runner or napkins. Can you just visualize that, too?

Deb used both sets in our Boho Series, this week's featured Product of the Week at 20% OFF through Saturday. Read all the sale details at the end of this post.


This card is 5.5" square.

I LOVE how Deb used the leaf set to create that stunning background, so richly colored with Copics, allowing the pumpkins to be the focal image popped up on the lighter square base.

Boho Pumpkins (pumpkins, inside sentiments)


Square Die (pumpkin base)




A closer look.

The pumpkins are die cut and popped up.

How pretty can it get!


And this is the lovely inside.

Autumn is die cut, while warm & cozy is stamped.

Thanks so much, Deb, for this wonderful, warm & cozy fall card!

Hello Fall Folio

Folios seem to be all the rage amongst our Design Team of late, and for good reason. Everyone loves to pull little goodies out of pockets, and small folios offer the opportunity to add one or as many pockets as you like, while still keeping the project on the smaller side. Today Karen Letchworth is sharing a fun folio in a fall theme, with one of the tuck-ins being a bookmark, making it even more fun!

Karen used our Boho sets which are the featured sets this week as our Product of the Week. Get them at 20% OFF through Saturday and be sure to read all the details at the end of this post.


This is the folio front with the bookmark sticking out of the top.

Boho Fall Leaves (leaves, acorns, some sentiments)

Boho Pumpkins (some sentiments)

Fishtail Sentiment Banners (to cut sentiment)

Miscellaneous scraps of retired designer paper - see 6x6" pads here.




A little closer look.


And this is the folio opened up, showing us the lovely bookmark Karen made by simply stamping a variety of the words from both sets in an assortment of fall colors.  FUN!

You can see the pockets she created and the printed tuck-in she cut from a retired paper pad.

Thanks so much, Karen, for this fun project!
