Harvest Holidays

I fell in love with this 'Painted Harvest' stamp set as it can be used for Thanksgiving and then again for Christmas! Possibly spring too!

To achieve this great two-tone color on the wreath... the larger stamp was inked in Soft Sea Foam and the smaller (defining) stamp was inked in Old Olive.

I paired it with the sentiment from 'Four the Holidays' stamp set (an oldie, but a goodie!).

Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies Used:
Stamp Sets - Painted Harvest, Four the Holidays

Painted Thanksgiving

 


When I saw Paula Dobson's card... I just knew it would be prefect for my Thanksgiving cards for my family! I love this 'Painted Harvest' stamp set! It's a double stamp... where you ink and stamp one color and then with another stamp, ink and stamp that one over top to create a detailed design. I decided to create a few variations of color for my sunflower. Here are the color combos: Crushed Curry and Tangerine Tango; Rococo Rose and Merry Merlot; and Daffodil Delight and Peekaboo Peach for the flowers. For the leaves, I used Pear Pizzazz and Old Olive. The middle of each flower is inked with Soft Suede. The flowers in the forefront were all cut out using scissors.

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Gorgeous Harvest

My sister-in-law is loving the sunflowers now. Although sunflowers are usually a fall flower, I decided to try to create a cute spring sunflower for her birthday card.

Using the stamp set 'Painted Harvest', the petal colors here are Grapefruit Grove and So Saffron. The middle of the sunflower is Crumb Cake and the leaves are Pear Pizzazz.

I paired this stamp set with the 'Happy Birthday Gorgeous' stamp set for the sentiment.

Painted Pines

With each stamp set I purchase, I sometimes look to see if there's an unusual way to use the stamp/image/shape. With the 'Christmas Pines' stamp set... you would think that you could only use it for pinecones. Well, I noticed that the image sort of looked like a pineapple too. So, I thought to make a cute card using the image as a pineapple.

For the greenery for the pineapple, I used the leaf stamp in the 'Painted Harvest' stamp set.

Harvest Christmas

With each stamp set I've purchased, it's fun to try and find other uses for the stamps. The 'Painted Harvest' stamp set is one such stamp set. It boast a wonderful sunflower with it's two-step stamping. Now... using those two stamps, I've created a lovely wreath to use for my Christmas card here. It's the stamp set that keeps on giving!

I used the colors Pear Pizzazz and Tranquil Tide for the wreath and Real Red for the berries.

I paired this stamp set with the 'Season Like Christmas' sentiment stamp.

Painted Celebrations

When I saw the combination of gray/navy together with this stamp set 'Painted Harvest' , I wanted to create one of my own.

I used Sahara Sand instead of Smoky Slate, as I felt the Slate was too dark to pair with the Navy. Although, with this picture... the Sand looks like it blends in with the background here.... It looks so much better in person (wish I could physically show you the card!).

I used the Flourish thinlits (berry sprig) to add to the pop of color within the flower itself. I cut the flower out using my paper snips... a lot of work, but it really does make the flower pop with the dimensionals behind it.
