I'm diving right into making samples with products that I got in the demonstrator preorder for the Stampin' Up! Sept.-Dec. 2024 Mini Catalog. It's so fun having new stamping supplies but getting so much at one time is also hard because how am I to choose which thing to use first?? Stamping problems I tell you! Anyway I saw the color challenge at The Paper Players and decided I definitely needed to use the More Than Autumn bundle to make some fun frosted doughnuts! This is a really cute set and has a lot of mix and match sentiment options and the images will be easy to use for all seasons I think.
The challenge is to use Flirty Flamingo, Lemon Lolly, Soft Sea Foam and a neutral. I choose Pecan Pie as my neutral as that one seemed the most "doughnut" colored! How cute are these sprinkled doughnuts??
I started with a piece of Iconic Celebrations DSP (Online Exclusive) in a nice plaid pattern for my card front. Next I used a die cut circle that I pulled from my orphaned card parts bin and stamped the "you had me at" in Pecan Pie.
Next the doughnut was stamped three times in Pecan Pie then colored with Blends in the challenge colors plus Pecan Pie. After I die cut them I adhered them around the edge of the circle.
I used another new Holiday mini product called Peaceful Seasons dies to cut the banner in Flirty Flamingo. Then I stamped the "doughnuts" in Versamark and embossed it in white. Once that was adhered I stamped a few hearts and colored them in with the same colors and added them to the side of the banner.
A white bakers twine bow is added to the banner as a final detail.
Thanks for looking! Did you stamp today?
