The upcoming mini catalog has so much seasonal goodness it's hard to know where to start when making samples. I usually try with making one sample with each new bundle/stamp set just to get familiar with the style. I went full on fall with this one using the Hello Harvest bundle.
I started with a Cajun Craze card base, then a layer of Rustic Harvest DSP in a nice Crushed Curry pattern. I overlaid that with a piece of vellum embossed with the Leaf Fall embossing folder. Don't miss this folder in the catalog, it's on page 53 and isn't very visible!
Next I cut a Crumb Cake basket with the Full Basket dies (so many ways to mix and match sets with this sweet die!). I then stamped the flower image as well as a few single sunflowers and colored them with Stampin' Blends and Stampin' Write markers depending on the colors. I cut them all out and then layered them over the basket and popped them with dimensionals.
The banner is stamped and cut out and also popped with dimensionals. A linen thread bow is a nice rustic accent for the side of the basket.
Thanks for looking! Did you stamp today?
