Stamp Off Country Home Thanksgiving

Welcome to another Stamp Off Challenge.

This week, Buffy, Susan and I are doing fall/Thanksgiving.

This is our last challenge before the Thanksgiving

holiday, so we wish our viewing audience a

wonderful time with turkey, friends and family!

I always enjoy the challenge of combining products, 

so this card features Country Home (Holiday p 43),

with the Everyday Jars Framelits and Jar of Love

Stamp set (pages 217 and 51).  I was going for kind of

a terrarium concept.  I wrapped the jar with some 

Silver Mini Sequin trim (p 201) to add sparkle.  

I love the foliage from

Country Home and enjoy trying to use it in different ways.

I did some masking after stamping the jar, and then colored the foliage with Stampin' Blends! (p 205)

Now please pop on over to see what Buffy and Susan have 

created, to get you into a Thanksgiving mood.

All the Good Things with Stamparatus

I really do enjoy using the All the Good Things (p 151)

set with the Stamparatus (p 207).  It allows you to blend

colors with your markers, until you are happy with

the outcome.  In this example, the tree top combines

Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay.  You just keep coloring

the rubber with your marker and stamping it.   

Since the stamp comes down in the

same location when you use the Stamparatus, you have

the opportunity to create highlighting and low lights,

by using contrasting colors of inks.  

For the pot,  I used Blackberry Bliss, with Basic Gray.

Signs of Santa

This card features the Signs of Santa set,

with coordinating Santa's Signpost Framelits Dies

on page 19 of the Holiday Mini.  It's such a cute set,

with all of the elves and signs!

This suite also has Santa's Workshop Specialty

DSP, so that you can cut out additional images.

Lastly, the Santa's Workshops Enamel Shapes can

also be found on page 19
