The Autumn Leaves Bundle has been a fabulous Fall and Thanksgiving “go to” for me. But I love the stamped images so much I had to carry it over for a Fall Birthday.
Leaves
The Leaves are the star of this card in my opinion. I actually did not use the Autumn Leaves stamp set, only the Autumn Leaves Dies were used. Two of the little oak leaves were die cut from Copper Clay card stock. I really love the detail the little dies have included. And then a large leaf was cut from Gold Foil paper. It really helps the gold in the papers to pop!
The sentiment layer is also cut using the sentiment die from the Autumn Leaves Dies. This shape is great for so many of the SU sentiments. And there is also one that is more square with similar details included. The sentiment itself is from the Translucent Florals stamp set. It is a simple and bold Happy Birthday.
Papers
The unusual color I pulled from the All About Autumn Designer Series Paper is Moody Mauve. I was surprised at how well I like this color here. And yes, I am sad to say the All About Autumn Designer Series Paper is gone for good. But as popular as it was, I am sure several of you have it to still use. And if not, there are lots of gorgeous DSP available that could be used with this layout.
The layout I used is one I came up with when looking through the DSP. I chose different papers to showcase and ended with these three and the layout. They are all from the DSP pack. Pairing the Crumb Cake and Moody Mauve was from looking at what seemed to be the dominant colors.
Finishes
The gold foil leaf was a surprisingly good choice to pop! Next came the placement of the two little leaves and they needed something to hold them together. The Bakers Twine was great for this. I made a double bow to stand out a little more. Then the Adhesive Backed Speckled Dots were scattered around the sentiment. And yes, they are gone as well.
Layout Measurements
Card base of Moody Mauve is 5 1/2 X 8 1/2 scored and folded at 4 1/4
Crumb Cake back layer is 5 1/8 X 3 1/8 with wood DSP 5 X 3
Crumb Cake middle layer is 4 1/8 X 2 1/8 with leaves DSP of 4 X 2
Crumb Cake bottom layer is 4 1/8 X 1 5/8 with metallic DSP of 4 X 1 1/2

Stamps and Dies
This card is made with one of my favorite ever leaf sets. I love the shading of the stamped images in the Autumn Leaves set. And being able to add the veining, if desired, really takes it up a notch. For today’s card I opted to keep everything fairly simple. The leaves are stamped with Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze Inks. I added the veining with Basic Gray Ink.
To add a bit more dimension to the card, I die cut two of the small leaves from Old Olive card stock. And used the lovely frame also from the Autumn Leaves Dies. The sentiment is from the set as well and fits perfectly in the space. I am thrilled that this bundle is going to carryover for a bit of time.
Extra Definition
To add some extra definition to this card I used the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder. This one is in the Online Exclusives. It is a great leafy folder and could be used year round. By embossing on White card stock there is a softer look I believe. Plus adding the two die cut leaves adds to the texture also.
Papers
The card stocks used are a mix of what could be considered Fall colors. Old Olive is the card base as well as the focal layer base. But to add a bit of color, I opted to use Crushed Curry for the first layer. It helps to give the embossed White a bit of help, and also brings out the Crushed Curry leaf. I also used it to ground the sentiment . The white on white did not show at all well. But adding that little scrap strip of Crushed Curry was a perfect touch. And the final touch is the scattering of the Speckled Dot Adhesive Back embellishments.

The card I am sharing today is similar to one I did previously. It showcases the gorgeous All About Autumn Designer Series paper and Autumn Leaves stamp set.
Papers
The paper is by far the star of this card. It has been so popular and continues to be. The expected return date is October 9, so keep a check if you are interested. This layout is one I have done several times before. It is a regular side fold card with 1″ cut off of the right front opening. I love how this allows more of the gorgeous paper to show.
The front and strip are both part of the All About Autumn Designer Series Paper. But did you notice the leaves? They also are cut from the DSP. They really pop with the definition in the die cut. And to add some more of the bling from the paper, I used Gold Foil as the background for the sentiment.
Stamps and Dies
The Bundle used is the Autumn Leaves Bundle. I know SU has had some beautiful leaves bundles previously. But these have to be my favorite. And as I mentioned above, the detail in the die cut is awesome. As is the details in the label dies. There are three of those included in the dies. I used the smaller one and simply cut the Basic White to fit inside of it.
The sentiment is from the stamp set. It is definitely a favorite. I am Thankful for so many things, really everything, in my life and this allows me to share that with others. And to add just a touch more bling, I added a single gold from the Adhesive Backed Sparkle Gems.

I know the Autumn Leaves paper is unavailable but it is returning. And this paper is so gorgeous that it can be used year round. The Autumn Leaves Bundle and all of the other Suite products are available now. So I have a really pretty card to share.
Stamp Bundle
The Autumn Leaves Bundle is a wonderful one! The leaves stamped have a two step look to them, which I love. My leaves are all stamped off before stamping on the Very Vanilla card stock. I wanted a softer look for the leaves. I have also stamped on scrap one of the Blackberry Bliss leaves and the two small green leaves. Those two are connected but I cut them apart for my layout. They give a bit of dimension to the card, especially with the one hanging over a bit.
The leaves all have matching dies. There are both solid and embossed dies for each leaf. And that great sentiment layer is one of the dies as well. I really like the indented corners and stitching around the edge.
Additional Suite Products
This card uses all products in the suite with the exception of the Oxidized Copper Specialty paper. I did use a small strip of the DSP, but you could use any color matching paper there. The stamped leaves panel was embossed using the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. I love all of the texture of this embossing folder! We have had tile products before but I have to say that this is by far my favorite.
The other products from the suite I used are the Adhesive Backed Speckled Dots. There is a single one of the green on the sentiment layer. There was so much color and texture everywhere already, but that sentiment needed a touch of bling. And the final item is the Copper & Natural Ribbon Combo. I only used the copper ribbon. It is zigzagged behind the sentiment. The ribbon is very easy to work with and adds a great shine and color.
Papers
The paper choices were a problem because there were too many choices! I went with Blackberry Bliss as the card base. I love the deep purple leaves in Fall so I naturally gravitated to that color. It pairs great wit the Copper Clay layers and the touch of the Old Olive of the DSP strip.
The card is a little different from the normal. It is 5 1/2 X 7 1/2 and still scored at 4 1/4. This leaves the 1″ section on the right side for the strip of DSP. And it makes for a pop of pretty DSP without having to use a lot of it. I have a large card club and to only use a strip allows me to spread my paper a bit further. The same may apply when doing multiples of a card!

The September – December Mini Catalog is live today!! Woohoo!! I have my order ready to go for my Paper Shares and product I did not get on my Pre-order. Hopefully you are as excited as I am.
Today’s card is a new Punch Bundle from the Mini Catalog. With a couple of new extras added in. The weather is not saying Fall where I am, but for many it is right around the corner.
Background
This card features a variety of products. But one of the first I notice, besides the sign, is the background. So we are beginning there. I created the background by using a mask from the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks. This set has layering stencils, or masks, to create a sunflower scene, plus this Fall , and a herringbone looking one. Deciding on colors and then how they will blend is the hard part.
For this background I used Daffodil Delight lightly all over, then added some Old Olive, and finally some Copper Clay. I did not want it to be too dark. But maybe should have added some Blackberry Bliss to pop some. The best part is the stencil cleans in just a second under running water. I was impressed!
Stamp Bundle
The stamp set used is the Pick of The Patch. And it has a matching Punch! Yay on the punch because they are my favorite. Both of the pumpkins, stems, and leaves are all in the punch. So easy peasy there. I stamped the pumpkins with Pumpkin Pie Ink and then filled in some shadows with the Copper Clay Stampin’ Blends. The leaves and stem are stamped with Old Olive.
The sentiment is from the stamp set as well. It is stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and is stamped on a piece of the All About Autumn Designer Series Paper. I thought a wooden sign was perfect for the pumpkin patch.
Dies
The sign is cut using a Die from the Stars At Night Die set. I love the beautiful stars in that stamp set and dies, which is a hybrid by the way. But the shape of this die is what really sold me. And yes I know that is silly! For me a great shape that fits a large number of sentiments is a must have!!
The card is finished with a scattering of the Adhesive Backed Speckled Dots. The Copper one was placed as a nail holding up the sign. And a few green ones are scattered. To finish a bit more, I added some flecks from the Copper Clay Stampin’ Write Marker.

Here in Georgia the weather has been hinting at Fall but then leaning back towards Summer. Finally it seems to have decided on Fall. To celebrate this cooler weather,, I made a Fall card to share. A pairing of the Leaf Label leaves with the Alphabest Bundle worked wonderfully.
Leaves
These great leaves are the Leaf Label & Amber Gem Combo pack. The gems have been used on a variety of projects, but not today. Today the leaves gave me the idea for a banner. It began with one leaf and the wording, When a couple of them were stuck together, I had the thought of a banner. And here we are! My banner could have used a little more definition on the leaves to separate them more. But I was so excited with the idea that I just went with it. The string is the fun Silver Threaded Twine from the Mini Catalog also.
Stamp and Punch Bundle
The wonderful Alphabest stamp set has probably gotten more use than any of the other alphabet stamps I have owned. The size is perfect and the fact there is a matching punch is just perfect. Punches are a favorite tool of mine and this one is special. It looks like a mini ticket, and is simply a great size. And Punch Bundles are one of the best bang for your buck bundles. To create the banner I simply stamped all of the letters on a strip of Basic White with Crushed Curry Ink. Then I punched away!
Paper
This fun paper is from the Host Rewards Celebrate Everything Designer Series Paper. These bright colors are so happy! So I went with more bright colors for the card base and layer. When using colors from the paper, you cannot go wrong. Even if they are colors that you would not usually picture together. If they are together in the print then they work. That is part of the appeal of Stampin’ Up!s Designer Series paper!
Finishes
With the fun paper and banner, it did not require but a little bling to finish off this card. By using the 2021-2023 Opal Rounds, I had a couple of colors that matched the paper. With a generous spreading of gems, the card was complete.
Birthday Organizer Kit
