Grown With Love đź’–Stamp Simply

If you love stamping and creating beautiful cards, you'll absolutely LOVE the products you find at Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.  No matter what possible message you wish to express, what season, occasion, or style you're looking for; chances are very good that Stamp Simply will have what you need.  Letting others know how much you care is so important.  We can do that through our card-making, and Stamp Simply wants to help.  This fun Autumn card blends together a few of my favorite Fall products from Stamp Simply.
I used black cardstock for the base, and I layered that with patterned papers from the Craft Consortium's Bright Blooms 6x6 Paper Pad (green gingham) and Carta Bella's Welcome Autumn 6x6 Paper Pad (pink polka dot).  I machine stitched a straight stitched around the edges of my card for added texture (until my bobbin ran out...lol).  Next, I stamped the background using white ink and the very cool Vintage Seed Packet Background Stamp.  The sentiment at the bottom of my card is also found in the Vintage Seed Packet Background Stamp Set.  That alone is pretty.......but there's more.
I used the Vintage Ovals & Twigs Dies to cut out the center of the Seed Packet image, and that's where you get another peek at the pink patterned paper.  Next, I stamped the gorgeous pumpkins using the fabulous Boho Pumpkins Stamp Set.  I watercolored the pumpkins using some oxide inks, water and a small paint brush.  I cut out the focal image and sprigs using the coordinating Boho Pumpkins Dies.  I absolutely LOVE how these products complement one another, and just how easy they make it to create a really cool design.
Thanks so much for visiting me here today.  You can also see my card over on my Instagram Page where I really hope that you'll Follow me.  You can find lots of great inspiration on the new Stamp Simply Blog and LOTS of great shopping at Stamp Simply.  I appreciate your visits...always.

I'm sharing this fun Autumn card in the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - STITCH IT Up - I used my sewing machine to add some stitches around the edges of this fun card.  As I mentioned above, my bobbin ran out before I could finish; and I was too lazy to reload it.  lol (honestyđź’—)
