Fall Is In The Air!!

Good morning everyone!!  I'm just loving this beautiful fall weather here in TX. 

It has been just nice the last few days!!  I would like to share a fall tag with you this morning using one of the new releases from Sparkle N Sprinkle.  This is the Welcome Autumn stamp set.

I cut my tag using my Silhouette and embossed it using Tim Holtz's Woodgrain Embossing folder.  After embossing the tag was inked using distress ink and stamped using the Journal Mixed Media stamp randomly.  The leaves were cut from the Silhouette are punched using Fisker leaf punch.  The 2 smaller leaves were stamped using Journal Mixed Media stamp set.  The larger leaf was embossed with the Houndtooth embossing folder.

The tag and leaves were distressed with a little gesso.

To finish off the top of the tag, a piece of fall ribbon was placed right below the top of the tag.  A strip of 1/8" Tear-ific Tape was placed in the middle of the ribbon, removed backing and glittered using Green Nugget glitter.  A bow and button were added and distressed with gesso.

The embossed borders added to the bottom of the tag are from the Anne Griffin collections.  They were embossed, die cut and inked.  A strip of 1/8" Tear-ific Tape was added to the top of the borders, and glittered using Bronze Splendor glitter.  The sentiment was stamped with versamark and embossed using Teddy Brown EP.  The entire tag was then mist with Pearl Mist.

I hope you have enjoyed my project!!  If you would like more details please visit my SNS Gallery.

Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful day and remember....Keep Stamping!!

Share The Memories

Good morning everyone, hope your week has been wonderful!!  I would like to share a layout that I gave you a sneak peek last week using the new Camera Life stamp set!!  

This was a girl's weekend!!  All of us use to work together at a medical office.  We have since moved apart, one is in Maine, one is in Georgia, one is in Dallas and I am in Houston.  We still manage to get together and share some wonderful memories!!  This picture was taken on the Kemah Broadwalk in Kemah, TX.  There is so much laughter and talking.  We have FUN, FUN, FUN!!!

I thought this stamp set worked perfectly with this layout, we should focus on what's important wonderful friendships.

I also used the Travel Mixed Media stamp set it was just released this month also.  I stamped the camera 2 times and cut out the heart from one of the stamps.  It was glittered using Gypsy Red glitter and adhere to the camera using a pop dot. 

The background was created using stencils, watercolors, embossing paste and ink.

I applied embossing paste to the brick stencil and let it dry, once dry I inked the Journal Stamp from the Journal Mixed Media stamp set also new this month, with black ink and stamped lightly on the embossing paste.

  

The watermarks were stamped with brown ink.

The map was stamped with black ink and color with copic markers

Waterfall glitter was used to glitter the paper flowers!
