Happy Monday all! Today I'm sharing a few fun Fall cards that I created on the weekend. All three cards feature the fabulous "Front Porch" stamp sets from Catherine Pooler Designs.
For my first card, I stamped my pumpkin image using a no-line ink and then I watercolored it using my Karin Markers. I gold embossed my greeting from the "Give Thanks Sentiments" stamp set and added my watercolor paper panel to some fun "Urban Plaid 6x6" patterned paper.
For my second card I started by die cutting a piece of gold cardstock from Tim Holtz using the "Among the Seaweed Cover Die" and then added my floral pumpkin on a die cut from the "Skyscape Mini Cover Plate Die". I stamped the pumpkin using Merlot ink and then colored it using Copic Markers. Don't you just love this pumpkin in teal? I stamped the simple greeting from the "Give Thanks Sentiment" stamp set in Aquatini ink.
For the final card, I first took a combination of Tiki Torch and Mandarin Spice inks and stamped the little pumpkin all over the front card panel. Then I die cut the frame, "A2 Thin Frame Die" from Simon Says Stamp from the front panel. I then inked the panel underneath with a ombre effect using Mandarin Spice and Merlot ink. For the sentiment, I first stamped in Merlot ink and then I shifted the stamp slightly and then heat embossed it with gold embossing powder. A little gold paint splatter across the front and the card was complete!

Hi Allison! I like the same colors for fall as you, Tiki Torch, Aquatini & Mandarin Spice. The only one I don't have (yet) is Merlot. Sometimes I also like to throw in a little In The Park or Melon Ice. ❤️
I already follow you on Instagram and my name on there is sabelljones, Carol Sue Abell Jones. ❤️
Ooooo I clicked on the blender brushes because I didn't know CPDesigns had brushes! I have an obsession with blender brushes, these are going to the top of my wish list. I guess I didn't know she had them because I haven't been shopping in awhile because I'm doing a makeover on my craft/bedroom and spent all my money on a couple of new furniture pieces (storage). I can't wait to get it done so I can get back to crafting! ❤️
