Happy Fall Y'all & Die Cut Stickers Galore!!

Happy Fall Y'all - I was inspired by Lisa (My Paper Tales) to create a fall card for the current Just Us Girls Challenge. Ina from their DT has chosen a gorgeous fall color palette & mood board with rich fall leaves - love it!! 

Supplies: Paper - Just Stamp on It A2 card;

scraps of white & of a rusty patterned paper (I think

 it's from a fall pad I got at Target years ago);

unk brand of vanilla cardstock

Embossing Folder - Cascading Leaves and Stripes

Dies - My Favorite Things Bitty Fall Leaves'

Inks - Various Hero Arts & Tim Holtz DOI

My Spellbinders box always comes late in the month of issue, then it takes me a while to use it. The JUGs Challenge was the perfect time to pull out the Cascading Leaves and Stripes embossing folder from September. I die cut a rectangle from a vanilla-y yellow paper to approximate the lightest of the color palette, then sponged the rest of the colors (as close as I could come to them with the inks I have with me). The sweet little leaves came from the MFT September release - just got those in my mail last week.

I'll add this card to Darnell's October NBUS Challenge since my ef and leaf dies are newly used today. I haven't played at the Snippets Playground in quite a while but they're doing anything goes and all my leaves and the sentiment were cut from snippets (I've shown my box of snippets in the past - take a look HERE if you'd like; it's even fuller now!!).

Next I'm sharing some quick and easy Christmas cards using some 3D stickers.

ephemera from Spellbinders Nov 2020 card kit

Last week I ran to grab a coffee and visit the post office (OMG - the gorgeous new Christmas postage stamps!!). Michael's craft store wasn't too far from there so I popped in. I wanted to add a few quick musical note stickers to some pre-printed chorus cards and knew they'd have some (yes!). 

As I'm trudging through the meandering check-out lane (designed to tempt you with extra stuff to buy), I spotted a four bin rack of sticker packs - 99 cents each!! We're talking good Thickers, Jolee and others - wow! Besides the Santa ones I used here, I picked up some Thicker alphabet stickers and some kitties. I limited myself to 6 sets otherwise I would've pawed through the bins for hours - LOL. Maybe your store has a similar discount bin, if not - so sorry!

On card one - I just die cut a rectangle and some ovals, added to an A2 card and popped on the stickers. Found an ephemera ticket & sentiment - done! On card two - I hand cut a snowbank and added some glitter to the edge (hard to see in photo). Adhered to a patterned A2 card and applied the stickers - even quicker and easier than card one!! Yay - a couple more for the stash.

Thanks for stopping &, as always, happy crafting!!
