A Large Acorn card with the Acorny Thank you Stamp

Hello crafty friends,
I thought I would take a break from Halloween projects and create a Fall card for today.

Ok, I was so eager to make a large acorn card to use with the  "Acorny Thank you"  photopolymer stamp set which coordinates with the acorn punch, when purchased as a bundle you SAVE 15%.  I LOVE this bundle and a must have in my opinion.  I hope you enjoy today's card my friends and got  inspired.

To start make sure you trace and cut two acorns.  Emboss the front acorn with the Woodgrain Textured Impression Folder.  Then score the top of stem to create the hinge for the card to flip and adhere with some score tape for durability.

I punched a 2" and a 1-3/4 circle to be able to add the cute acorn on top of the circles.  I then added some gold cording for a little more detail.  I also sponged the large card acorn with some Early Espresso to add some shading.

Thankful for Acorns

Hello crafty friends,
Today, I have a Fall card using the Acorny Thank you Stamp Set along with the Acorn Punch which as a bundle you SAVE 15%. You can certainly purchase them separate if you would like. What do you all think about this bundle?  I hope you enjoy today's project and get inspired to create some Fall projects.  Have a fantastic day!

The base is A2 base 41/4 X 5-1/2 and the Tip Top Taupe is a 1/4" from the Cajun Craze base.  I then embossed the Tip Top Taupe with the Woodgrain Embossing folder.  The stripe is from the Go Wild Paper Pack which measures 2" X 4"

You gotta love these cute Acorns. I punched and sponged the edges and stamped the top of the acorn and punched.  I did set the acorns on top of the 2-3/8 Scallop punch and the 2" circle punch.

Hello Friends!
Are you all ready for the weekend?? This week sure flew by but who is complaining right:) I hope you all have fun plans for this weekend.

Today's card is a sketch from Freshly Made Sketches using the Deco Labels Collection Dies and some basic colors, I like the way it turned out, what do you all think?

I love how you can layer the Deco Labels Collection Dies check out my other card using these dies HERE.  On this card I used the 2-1/2" Circle Punch for a different look from my other card HERE.

I sponged the edges of the circle and Very Vanilla square layer with Pumpkin Pie Ink.  The stitched squares are from Little Inkers Dies and that pumpkin is from the dollar section from a local craft store. This card is a 5 X 5 and the Very Vanilla is 4-3/4 X 4-3/4
