Fall Blessings

Hello everyone.  The October 1 release from Whimsy Stamps (WS) went live as planned despite being hit by Hurricane Ian.  This release has all the fall feels, so I have a CAS (clean and simple) fall card to share today featuring the new Gourds and Pumpkins stamp set.


Masking was used to stamp the row of gourds on alcohol marker friendly cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  Coloured the images with Copic Sketch markers.  Applied Tumbbled Glass distress ink over a DIY cloud stencil that was created with the Grass and Cloud Edger die for the sky.


Stamped the sentiment in black and about to call it done, but I had a Shaker Maker Rectangle frame in my stash, and decided to give it a bit of interest/dimension by doing the hidden die cut technique with it.


Here is a snapshot of some inspirations from the design team.


WS has resumed shipping.  To check out the new October release, click HERE.  That does it for my card today.  Thank you for dropping by.
