Truly Grateful for Fab Friday!

Hey stamping peeps! It's Friday and time for another Fab Friday challenge! Yay! We have a wonderful fall color combination for you this time. Check it out...
 
These colors are the ones in the awesome Sweater Weather DSP, so that made it easy to come up with my card. I really love the Truly Grateful stamp set! That background stamp is great (I am a sucker for background stamps) and the font on the sentiment is really nice too. It is a little bit hard to see in the picture, but I ran the DSP layer through the Big Shot in the Square Lattice EF to give it some extra texture.

 
 
 
 
Stamps: Truly Grateful
Paper: Chocolate Chip, Tangerine Tango, Sahara Sand, Very Vanilla, Sweater Weather DSP
Ink: Crushed Curry, Chocolate Chip, Sahara Sand
Accessories: Big Shot, Square Lattice EF, Naturals button, linen thread
 
OK, now it's your turn! Be sure to stop by over at Fab Friday and see what my fellow design team members have come up with and be sure to play along with us!

Fall Card Buffet Choices

Hey there, stampers! I am holding a fall themed card buffet in a couple of weeks and I always post my choices ahead of time. That way my customers can preorder their cards. It makes things much easier for me because I don't have to try to predict which cards will be popular and everyone gets exactly what they want and nothing that they don't.

If you are a local customer and plan to attend the buffet, please be sure to email me your selections no later than Monday, September 9th. Please list the card name (listed above each picture) as well as how many you would like to make of each design you choose. If you plan to make the same number of each design, you can also tell me that and skip the card names.

This is one of the new flip cards made with the new Label Card Thinlit. I altered the original design so that once it flipped open, it also had an additional flap where you could write a greeting and sign the card. If you would like to see a video on how this id done, Patty Bennett has a great one that you can check out by clicking here.

Thanks for stopping by! Local ladies, I hope to see you on the 20th!
