Stamp of the month - Racoon - Larissa


Goodmorning, I am Larissa from Car-d-eliciousand today I am posting a card that I made for the monthly challenge from Gerda Steiner designs. If you buy the October image: Racoon from Gerda Steiner designs and make a card with it this month, you automatically get next months image for free. Really fabulous!


This month the image is Racoon from Gerda Steiner designs. I typed my own sentiment on the sign and then I printed the image. I have coloured the image with my Polychromos pencils, the black glaze pen and a white gelpen. I have die-cut the image with the Crea-nest-lies XXL 49 from Crealies and then I fussy cut the upper part of the image. I diec-ut another circle from white cardstock with the same dies. On top of that circle I made a cloudy background with the Mini cloud edges stencil from My favorite things and Tumbled glass distress ink. From orange plaid paper from the Perfectly plaid fall paper pack from Lawn fawn I die-cut a square with the Crea-nest-lies XXL 42 from Crealies and I adhered it on a white card.


I decorated 2 corners of the card with some flowers and leaves. I die-cut the flowers from white cardstock with the Layered floral set Die-047j from Impression obsession. I decorated the middle of the flowers with Limoncello jewel drops from Nuvo. The leaves are cut with the Leaf cluster die-066-c from Impression obsession and the Lit-267 from Kreaxions from white cardstock and then I colloured them with Peeled paint distress ink.

Fall in love tags from Larissa


Goodmorning, I am Larissa from Car-d-elicious and today I amposting 2 tags. I used the stampset Fall in love from Gerda Steiner designs to make 2 little tags. This is a real autumn stampset , but I am showing you that you can use it for another occasion. You could use it to let someone know that you miss them if you use other colours and paper.


The first tag is a real autumn tag. I used the cute squirrel image from the set Fall in love from Gerda Steiner designs on it. I have coloured the image with my Polychromos pencils and the black glaze pen and then I fussy cut the image. The tag is is made with the Tag builder blueprints 5 from My favorite things. I used dark brown cardstock and plaid paper from the Perfectly plaid paperpad from Lawn fawn. I stamped the sentiment on a piece of brown cardstock and I adhered it on the tag.


I die-cut a tiny heart from yellow cardstock and adhered it with foamtape above the image. I applied Limoncello jewel drops from Nuvo on the heart. I tied a yellow ribbon through the tag and tied it together with black thread and a tiny black button.


On the second tag I used the cute mice from the stampset Fall in love from Gerda Steiner designs. I coloured them again with my pencils. I used a different tag from the set Tag builder blueprints 5 from My favorite things. This time I used red cardstock and black striped design paper from the Trick or treat paperpad from My mind's eye. On the lower design paper I stamped a sentiment from the set Tiny type from Clearly besotted stamps with versamark ink and then I embossed it with white embossingpowder. I cut a heart from red cardstock and added glossy accents on it.

Thank you Hedgehog

Hi there,

it's Tanja here and this time I created this sweet Fall card:

  • cut out a stitched panel from Neenah Desert Storm kraft cadrstock
  • stamp the hedgehog from the Gerda Steiner Designs Hedgehog with Sign set, pumpkins, pears and apples from the Gerda Steiner Designs Fall Mice set and leaves from the Gerda Steiner Designs Happy Fall set with Versafine Vintage Sepia - use the Masking Technique
  • color the images with Prismacolor Colored Pencils and Zest-it
  • add highlights with a white gel pen
  • create a backdrop with the help of patterned paper from the Maja Design Walking in the Forest 6x6 paper pad, the My Favorite Things Wonky Stitched Rectangles and the My Favorite Things Stitched Scallop Basic Edges 2
  • adhere the layers to a dark brown cardbase


I hope you got inspired.

Yours,
