Happy Fall Y'all!
Fall isn't my favorite season, but I do love 
Thanksgiving! Today I have the last of my 
Thanksgiving cards to show you.
I used Pumpkin Vine Stamp from QKR Stampede
sold through Stamp On It.
Colored with Fantasia Colored Pencils 
The background panel is cork paper from a 
pad a friend gave me.
This image is 
Tree Losing Leaves from Eureka Stamps.
Colored with colored pencils.
This background panel is from a burlap pad,
I have in my stash.
I used the Harvest Basket stamp from 
Eureka Stamps sold though 
Stamp On It, stamped it onto white card stock
and colored it with colored pencils.
The sentiment is
Give thanks, from Biblical Impressions.
This last card was made using 
Also from Eureka Stamps.

Jack O Pumpkin

Welcome to my Halloween Challenge post for QKR Stampede!
Please stop in at the QKR Stampede Blog to see all the particulars about the challenges and the wonderful prize you could win.
Today I have a card  that I made with
"Pumpkin Vine"  (#12915) from QKR Stampede
I'm not a huge Halloween fan,
but one of the things I do love are the pumpkins. 
When I was a kid, we always called our Jack 'o lantern,
Jack O Pumpkin, so this image brings back some great childhood memories.
I think this guy has a lot of personality. 
He was stamped onto white card stock and colored with FlexMarkers.
The ribbon is from May Arts Ribbon. I colored the white ribbon with FlexMarkers also.
I used Distress ink to color the base card using a blending sponge.
I hope you will play along with our Halloween challenge.
QKR Stampede has some wonderful Halloween and fall images, so be sure to stop into the QKR Stampede store and check them out.  There's something for everyone.
Leave a comment if you will and come again soon.
Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Give Thanks

Hello!  Welcome!
Today I have a card that I have made with
"Pumpkin Vine" (#18802) from  QKR Stampede and
"Give Thanks" (#34109) from Biblical Impressions
QKR Stampede and Biblical Impressions are sister companies and they both have tons of fabulous images.  QKR Stampede offers their images in both unmounted red rubber as well as in digital format.
At this time Biblical Impressions does not offer digital format.
All my stamping has been done with rubber stamps.
 
I stamped Pumpkin Vine onto the gold card stock and colored it with FlexMarkers.  I stamped the image again and colored the leaves and fussy cut 3 of them.  I used foam tape to add them to the bottom of the card.
 
For the base card, I used white card stock and inked it with some distress inks.  I also used some distress ink on the gold piece on the torn edge.
 
The Give thanks sentiment is only part of the sentiment.
The entire sentiment is "Give thanks to the Lord"
I masked off the "to the Lord" with a post it note, inked up the stamp, then removed the post it before stamping.
I do sometimes cut my sentiment stamps apart to use them like this, but this particular sentiment is simple to mask.
 
I hope you have enjoyed today's card and that you will come back soon.
Please leave a comment and let me know what you think.
 
Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Two of my favorite fall stamps

Hello friends!

Today I'd like to share with you, a card using 2 of my favorite fall stamps from QKR Stampede.
Last night I made this card using the Leaf (#3901) image and Pumpkin Vine (#18802) that are under the 'Autumn" category in the QKR Stampede store.

I used the Leaf stamp with VersaMark randomly on Kraft card stock and brushed them with gold Mica Powder for my background.

I stamped the Pumpkin Vine on orange and green pieces of card stock and fussy cut them.  If you look at the Pumpkin Vine image in the QKR Store you will see that there is more to the image than shows here.  I chose to only use part of the image.  This is one of the things I love about stamping, you can use all or parts of an image.  Stamps are so versatile.

After piecing the Pumpkin and Vine I used foam tape to adhere it to the background.

The ribbon came out looking very bright in the pictures, but it actually matches much better than it looks.  Sorry for the poor photo, it is very rainy and dreary here today.

I hope you'll hop on over to the QKR Stampede store and see all the fall stamps they have to offer in both rubber and digital format.
Also be sure to check out the variety of Mica Powders that are offered in the store.

Thanks for stopping by today, come again soon.
Until next time, Happy Crafting!
