Hi Everyone,
Welcome to my post today. I have been crafting a lot of fall projects lately. I realized that I am gravitating to a group of colors over and over. These are the 5 Must have colors of fall when cardmaking.
The card I created uses the Soft Seedlings Stamp set by Stampin' Up! In fall, I think about the yellows, organges, greens and brown. I used several of these colors for my project. The base of the card is Soft Suede. This is such a rich color and is perfect for fall.
To get the different colors on the leaves, I first inked up the image with Crushed Curry. Then I "kissed" the image with Cajun Craze and Mossy Meadow. Then I stamped the image on the cardstock. What I really like is that each leaf looks unique. Okay, now you know 4 of the must have fall colors. Soft Suede, Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, and Mossy Meadow.
I used the same technique for the seedling. The splatter comes from Perched in a Tree Stamp set. I stamped off before stamping onto the cardstock.
When it comes to your projects, don't forget about the embellishments. You can find coordinating ribbons and gems to make your card pop. I suggest any of the metalic brused gems or the Mossy Meadow Braided trim that is in the Clearance Rack. I think any of the natural ribbons would look great as well.
Well here it is. These are the 5 must have colors for fall stamping. I didn't use Crumb Cake on this project, but it is one of my favorites. Sometimes you want a softer brown and it's perfect. Now these 5 colors can take your through November as well as into the holidays. Then you can keep using these colors for more masculine and nature projects.
I hope you liked my project today and my tips for some great fall colors. You can check out my video for that "kissing" technique too. Thanks for stopping in. You can get these colors from my online store. Take advantage of the Clearance Rack too. Read on for my current promotion.
