Come To Gather Triple Fold Gift Card Holder & More

I am soooo in love with Fall colors and the Come To Gather Designer Series Paper is filled with the smell of pumpkin spice, I mean filled with all things Fall.  There are several coordinating colors such as; Cajun Craze, Early Espresso, Merry Merlot, Mint Macaron, Pear Pizzazz, Pretty Peacock, and Whisper White.  I found that even Very Vanilla is a perfect addition to the array of colors in this Autumn themed suite.  In my recent Stamp & Scrap Club we created cards featuring this suite and a few added products from the Annual Catalog.

In my October Club we made the Come To Gather Triple Fold Gift Card Holder.  For this card I used various products in the Come To Gather Suite, and I also incorporated one of my favorites from the Annual Catalog, the Country Home Photopolymer Stamp Set.


The Happy Harvest Blessings sentiment is part of the Country Home Photopolymer Stamp Set, and the other images on the card front are from the Gather Together Photopolymer Stamp Set. I love that Stampin' Up!® incorporated Pretty Peacock in the Designer Series Paper as it adds a perfect addition to Early Espresso and the wood-grain elements of this DSP.


I wanted to showcase so many of the pretty designs in the DSP, so I decided to use a few that had highlights of Pretty Peacock and Early Espresso. 


You may have noticed that the top flap of the card, when opened, has a pocket that is perfect to tuck a gift card in or even an additional note.  The floral image peeking out from the inside of the card is a stamp from the Country Home Stamp Set,and...  


...look a little closer, I used the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint to create a realistic look of cotton on the cotton plants in the image, what an amazing finishing touch.

Here is another card we made today using the Gather Together Bundle, featuring the large leaf stamp and die.

I cut a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of  DSP and die cut the large leaf in the center then layered it on top of a Very Vanilla card-base using Dimensionals.  I then used my Ink Spots in Merry Merlot, Cajun Craze, and Early Espresso from various Paper Pumpkin Kits to add color to the large leaf stamp.  By adding 3 different colors of ink randomly to the leaf stamp and stamping in on a scrap of Very Vanilla, it created a look similar to the Baby Wipe Technique.  I die cut the large leaf stamped image and adhered it with Snail Adhesive where the leaf image was die cut from the center of the DSP.  I finished the project off by stamping the Season of Thanks sentiment on a 3 1/4" x 1" of Very Vanilla Cardstock, dovetailed the end with my Banner Triple Punch, wrapped Linen Thread around on end tied it in a knot, and adhered it to the card front using Dimensionals.  A super easy card with a super easy technique.
