Catherine shares another super creative card to inspire us! She featured the pyramids as her sightseeing destination!


The cute mice have found themselves cast in an Indiana Jones archeology adventure! Catherine used her creative eye to mix and match images to use them in a clever way. She used the Llama Tell You critter as a camel by masking the back of the llama to add a hump instead. And she used the cookie tray from Sprinkled with Joy as the opening of the trench where all the treasures are found. Ahoy Matey provides the chest, coins and treasure map, the shovel is from Veggie Happy, and the ladder is from Apple-solutely Awesome. She also added decoration to the vase from Our Friendship Grows as an artifact, it’s so clever


To create the background, she started with stenciled clouds and Simply Puffy Cloud Frames. She added a Stitched Hillside Border with Sandy Beach Accents for the desert sand. Then she cut rectangle pieces of white cardstock to create the pyramids, giving them shape by inking with Scattered Straw and Tea Dye Distress Oxide inks.

Oh wow, this is so much fun, Catherine! Thank you so much for this brilliant inspiration!

Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Awesome Autumn Challenge! I was struggling to get in the mood for Fall this year, so I decided that I would try to combine all the things I love about the season onto one card. Pumpkins, apples, sunflowers, corn fields, crows, and colored leaves. And all that together seemed like the perfect place for a scarecrow girl to live.


I pulled together a whole bunch of stamp sets, including You Crow Girl, Happy Harvest, Apple-solutely Awesome, Crazy Antics, Critters on the Farm, Scripty Autumn Sentiments, and Big Acorn. I stamped the images in Jet Black Ink, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with their matching dies.


Then I cut down a panel of Bristol Cardstock with the largest of the Small Stitched Rounded Rectangle Stackables and blended on Distress Oxide Inks to create a background. For the sky, I used Speckled Egg along with the Cloudy Stencil. Then I stamped the corn stalk image from Happy Harvest in Scattered Straw. Finally, I used the Slimline Grassy Stencil to blend on Bundled Sage and Forest Moss. I stamped my sentiment in the top left corner.


Then I chose two prints to combine from the Falling Leaves 6×6 pad and trimmed those down with the largest of the Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables. I glued those to a Kraft card base and popped the focal panel up over top with foam tape. Then I adhered the images with liquid glue and finished off the card with some Stardust Stickles. I also did some stamping on the inside in Walnut Ink.
