The Come To Gather Designer Series Paper has several versatile designs, but my favorite sheet is this neutral pumpkin piece. I designed a Fall card for my club using it with the Gather Together stamp set.

This sheet is barely visible in the catalog, and I was completely surprised when I opened my paper to check out the designs in person. I love the crooked paper concept and have been wanting to use that layout again recently. Plus, it works great to show off the paper without covering it up too much.
Colors: Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso, Cajun Craze, Merry Merlot, , Mint Macaron, Whisper White.

I love the detail scoring on the matching Gathered Leaves dies. Here’s the inside of the card…why not put another leaf inside!

Happy Stampin!

Time for Christmas card Stamp-A-Stack classes, and my first one used the Brightly Gleaming Suite. I like for the cards to be a matching set, so here are the 3 cards I designed for this class. Each person makes a dozen (4 of each design).

I’m in love with the new metallic ink and especially the copper. I stamped all the ornaments in copper ink and painted some accents using the copper ink refill too. The colors are Pretty Peacock, Mossy Meadow, and Night of Navy. The twine is Mossy Meadow from the Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack plus some regular Linen Thread on the Pretty Peacock design. Here are close-ups of each design.

I used a Stampin’ Blend to put dots of color on the Vanilla ornaments to add just a little color and interest.





I used everything in this suite except the Hammered Metal 3D embossing folder. After the class, I made 8 of each design plus my 2 card samples giving me 10 of each…love that!
