The two cards above were created using a background of one of the Tartan Foil Specialty Designer Series Paper from the Online Exclusives, Item #162332, along with the September 2023 With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Kit contents. I love how this Tartan Foil shimmers from diamonds to plaid depending on how the light hits it. I also used leaf and sentiment die cuts using the Autumn Leaves Dies and the sentiment is from Autumn Leaves Stamp Set. I used the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder from the September - December 2023 Mini Catalog on the Lost Lagoon Layer.
These alternative card ideas used die cuts from the September 2023 With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Kit and die cuts from Splendid Stems Dies. I continued the color theme of Pretty Peacock basecard, with Lost Lagoon and and Pool Party layers. I used the Stitched Greenery Die on a Pool Party Layer, and found a chevron-diamond print from the One Horse Open Sleight Designer Series Paper, Item # 162118, from the Online Exclusives to use as one of the layers on my cards. The sentiment is from the September 2023 With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Kit, and it is heat embossed using White Embossing Powder on a Pretty Peacock strip.
This alternative card uses August 2022 Sweet Sunflowers Paper Pumpkin Kit preprinted base card along with pumpkin and leave die cuts from the Sept 2023 With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Kit. Combining these two Paper Pumpkin kits creates a stunning, yet simple card. The basecard used is Poppy Parade. The sentiment, pumpkin and leaves are from the With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Kit. The beautiful "thank you" is also from the stamp set included With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Kit as is the sentiment label.
The two cards above uses a Lost Lagoon base card and a Pool Party matte. I dry embossed a piece of Basic White using the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder and then covered the top and bottom of the Basic White piece with a Lost Lagoon strip that had been stamped multiple times with one of the stamps from September 2023 With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Kit using Lost Lagoon Ink. I stamped the pumpkin in Lost Lagoon ink with a Crumb Cake Ink stem and fussy cut it, and backed it with die cuts from the Timeless Arrangements Dies. I tried Copper Clay die cuts behind the pumpkin on one card and used the Copper Clay sheet from the Tartan Foil Specialty Designer Series Paper on the die cuts on other card. What's your preference? I used the Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle for the sentiment and coordinating punch using Lost Lagoon ink on Basic White Cardstock.
For these two cards, above, I'm using Darling Detail Dies to create alternative cards using Sept 2023 With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Kit. Again, my color theme is Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon and Pool Party. I layered two of the Darling Detail Die cuts onto a Pretty Peacock Basecard. Then I added pumpkin and leaves die cuts from the September 2023 With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Kit. I used the Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle for the sentiment and coordinating punch using Lost Lagoon ink on Basic White Cardstock. I added a small bow of Lost Lagoon 1/4" Bordered Ribbon to complete my card.
For my final card, I opened one of the coordinating envelopes from the September 2023 With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Kit and cut it into two strips to use as a floral background for my card. I used Lost Lagoon and Pool Party Cardstock layers to frame the floral background. Then I used pumpkin die cuts and leaves and Splendid Stems Die Cuts behind the leaves for added interest. I used the Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle for the sentiment and coordinating punch using Lost Lagoon ink on Lost Lagoon Cardstock.
