Fresh Fig Autumn - Stampin' Up! Colorful Seasons

  It's time to get all those fall themed stamp sets out to be ready for those fall birthdays, thank yous and other occasions you have coming up.  One of the things I love most about the Colorful Seasons bundle is that the images are great for any season.  You really get your money's worth with the Colorful Seasons bundle and can use it all year long.  Let's face it; most of us don't have unlimited crafting budgets so we need to be smart about our purchases.  I think the Colorful Seasons stamp set is a very smart purchase!

  For today's card I used the new In Color Fresh Fig and added in some gold embossing for a fall inspired birthday card.

  The card base is Crumb Cake and then a smaller panel of Fresh Fig stamped with the 2 solid leaf images from the set.  Before adhering the panel to the card front I wrapped a length of 1/8" sheer ribbon around it and tied a bow to the side.  

  Next, I embossed several leaves in gold on vellum cardstock and then die cut them with the Seasonal Layers Thinlets.  The gold and Fresh Fig are a beautiful combination don't you think?  

  The label shape from the Rose Wonder stamp set was also embossed in gold and die cut with the coordinating Rose Garden thinlet.  The sentiment (also from Rose Wonder) was stamped on the label in Fresh Fig ink then popped up with dimensionals over the ribbon.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
