Today I´m taking part again in the Papier Turnier Bloghop which means Paper Tournament :) Judith from Austria organised this Bloghop that takes place every 2nd Thursday of the month.
You´re probably arriving from Carola or maybe you´re starting on my blog. Make sure to visit all of the blogs to get the full inspiration and ideas from all the very creative ladies taking part.
This month´s theme for the bloghop is the Holiday catalogue AKA der Herbst-/Winter Katalog.
I decided to make a fall/autumn project as Christmas is still a little while to go.
As some of you know I´m a kindergarden teacher and this week I talked to my children at work about fall/autumn and what signs show that it´s about to be this nice colorful season. One of the things are the leaves changing colors, so I put this in my project, let´s see if you can spot it ;) I personally love fall/ autumn as it´s one of my avourite season with the not to hot or cold weather, the wonderful colors and of course my favourite vegetables PUMPKIN!!!
I started off with a cardbase in Pumpkin Pie (hehehehehe) and layered a piece in soft suede on top of it.
On top of that came a piece of selfmade DSP using the Vintage Leaves and once again PumpkinPie ink to stamp them randomly onto the paper. I also sponged some more to make it blend with the cardbase.
Next I diecut 2 banners from soft suede and whister white with the banner framelits. I then stamped acorn tops from the Acorny Thank you stamp set in Pumpkin Pie ink on the whisper white one and layered it on top of the second banner. On top of that came a scallop circle in the new Pumpkin Pie glimmer paper and put a whisper white circle on top of it.
In the new holiday catalog is a cute new set for halloween and fall/autumn that fits a new builder punch. If you know me , you know that i couldn´t resist but buy this punch for a lot of future projects.
The set I´m talking about is the Cookie-Cutter Halloween set (don´t miss the awesome Cookie cutter christmas set bundle either). I stamped the scarecrow on shimmer white cardstock and colored it with different fall-ish stampin up colors. Then I punched it out using the Cookie Cutter Builder punch and adhered it using a couple of dimentionals. Isn´t he just so cute?!
I then picked a sentiment from the Acorny Thank you set and bent it a little to fit the Thoughtful banners stamp set and the Banner Duo punch to punch it out. The banner was also adhered with dimentionals and my card was good to go.
What do you think?
Last month I did my first comment-giveaway and the winner was my Stampin Up! Sister Eva from Heldenstempel ( Unfortunately she was the only one that commented). Eva loved her prize though :)
I will give the giveaway another try though hoping to see more comments this time. I won´t tell you the crafty prize as it will be a surprise. To win just leave a comment and I will pick a random winner.
So go ahead and please leave a comment and let me know what you think :)
Now have fun with the Blog Hop and have a look what the other lovely ladies created :)
