Hello, my crafty friends. Welcome to the September Paper Crafting Blog Hop! Once again I am participating in this blog hop with several fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators from the United States, Australia and United Kingdom. You might be starting the blog hop right now, or you may be coming from Sue Boerner's blog. Welcome one and all.
This month's theme is any kind of fall project. I have chosen Colorful Seasons (AC p. 56) to show off Stampin' Up!'s beautiful fall colors. The colors used include Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Cherry Cobbler and Early Espresso.
The Colorful Seasons Stamp Set coordinates with the Seasonal Layers Dies (AC p. 195), Don't you love those adirondack chairs!! And, there is the Buffalo Check Background Stamp (AC p. 156) again.
I am terribly lacking in fall sentiments since it is not such a "hot" theme here in Florida. I chose the word "welcome" from the Well Written dies (AC p. 197) and created "fall" combining letters from two other dies. (Well Said Stamp Set, AC p. 47 - not used on this card front, but coordinates with the dies.) Hard to tell, but the "fall" sign is hanging from the top sentiment flag using the linen thread.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today! I sure hope you have enjoyed my card featuring Colorful Seasons. Leave a comment below with a trail to find you so I can see your creations. Do not forget to check out the great project by our next blog hopper, Sue McDonald.
This is a full list of our bloggers this month and their links to keep you on track:

Hello, my crafty friends. This week I thought I would go outside my comfort zone and give a color challenge a try. If you follow my Facebook page with any regulatory, you know that I follow the weekly sketch challenges by Paper Craft Crew, and this week's challenge (PCC346) is a color challenge to use 3 of 4 colors: a bright yellow (Pineapple Punch), a bright green (Granny Apple Green), a blue (Blueberry Bushel) and a reddish orange (Poppy Parade).
As soon as I saw these colors, I knew that this was the card that I would create, and that I would use all 4 colors!
This card features the large daisy from the Daisy Delight stamp set (AC p. 96) in Pineapple Punch and a splash of Poppy Parade for the center and punched using the coordinating Daisy Punch (AC p. 187). The Stitched Oval (#1, largest of the 4 dies) embellishment is framed with the Oval Scallop (#1, largest of the 7 dies) in Blueberry Bushel. I stamped the small trio of flowers in Pineapple Punch, layered on a strip of Granny Apple Green, topping a strip of the Buffalo Check background stamp (AC p. 156) in Blueberry Bushel to create the bottom border.
I opted to use the Scripty 3D embossing folder (AC p. 199) for the background instead of flowers or leaves, and I decided to leave off the sentiment on the front to allow for an any-occasion sentiment on the inside.
This is really a simple card and I hope my paper crafty friends will give it a try! I would love to see your creations. Thanks to the Paper Craft Crew for the opportunity to go outside my comfort zone in creating a card from a color scheme before selecting the stamp set!
Stamp On!!

Hello, my crafty friends. Here's a quick and easy remake of one of our June cards in a basic layout using the Butterfly Gala stamp set (AC p. 46). If you missed that card, click HERE to see it.
This card "remake" uses identical supplies from the first card: the new in color Seaside Spray cardstock, topped with a 1/4" smaller layer using the Buffalo Check Background stamp in the coordinating ink. However, the Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Well Said stamp set and coordinating Well Written dies (AC p. 47, 197) and the sweet little flower from the Perennial Birthday stamp set (AC p. 66).
If you would like a detailed instruction sheet to help you recreate this card, please send me a message and I will respond with a list of dimensions and product guide.
Stamp On!!
