Beautiful Pumpkins say Thankful for the Small Things

Posted on September 30, 2025 by Genevieve Valdes

Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch challenge calls for so many options I decided to use stamp set Beautiful Pumpkins. This card is CASED from the online card samples. I love the pumpkin dies, images and sentiments. I used the dies to cut out the gold and beige pumpkin from the SEASON OF ELEGANCE 12″ X 12″ (30.5 X 30.5 CM) SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER, the leaves and stem from gold foil. The card base is Basic Beige and the leaves stamped with Basic Beige classic ink. The brown wood background and banner is from the DSP is from the COUNTRY WOODS 12″ X 12″ (30.5 X 30.5 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER. The sentiment is stamped on Basic Beige with Early Espresso classic ink and the card is embellished with gold Flower Accents.

Gather Together Fall Thank You card

Posted on August 18, 2020 by Genevieve Valdes

With fall just around the corner I was inspired by Hand Stamped Sentiments inspiration challenge and the The Gather Together bundle featured in the mini holiday catalog, a returning favorite.  Some of the dies in the set die cut and emboss which I used for the leaves.  This set was so much to use.  I can see why it is a returning fave.

The Cajun Craze layer was die cut using the Stitched Rectangle then I inked the Pinewood Planks 3D folder with Champagne Mist Shimmer paint before running it through my die cutting machine.  The shimmer paint added a soft shimmer which added to the metallic accents. I also die cut the dsp from the Gilded Autumn Specialty Designing Series Paper collection with the Stitched So Sweetly die.  The white leaf and the pumpkins I stamped on Very Vanilla and heat embossed with gold embossing powder.  The center leaf I die cut embossed from gold foil paper.  The sentiment is stamped on Early Espresso, die cut using the Stitched Rectangle and heat embossed with gold embossing powder.

Embellishments are Mint Macaron Basket Weave ribbon, Champagne foil and Champagne rhinestones.
