I love creating mini slimline cards, sometimes they are the perfect size and the Pumpkin Mouse stamp from Gerda fit the space perfectly! I also used a sentiment from the Pumpkin Bear stamp set.

 I used the new image titled Toad Stall for my card. I think this is the sweetest image but I say that about all of Wendy's images lol! I just love them all!

I printed my image out onto a piece of white Hammermill cardstock, colored it in with my Copic markers & used a border die to create a little scalloped edge at an angle. I stamped my sentiment onto a piece of Kraft cardstock, adhered that to the bottom of my white image panel, wrapped some twine around and popped it all up with foam tape onto my plaid cardbase. I added a couple of stitched clouds and some small circles that I covered with glossy accents to complete my card.

I adore this little scarecrow and thought it would be so cute to put onto a little treat box. 

I started by creating my box using the Milk Carton Die and some Kraft cardstock. I layered some light aqua patterned paper on all the sides. I used some green patterned paper and the Border Dies 2 to create my little hills, added my sentiment from the Scarecrow Kisses stamp set and attached my hills to the front of my box. I used the Spring Dies 2 to create my cloud and added some little pumpkins that I created using the Fall Banner Dies. I stamped my scarecrow from the Scarecrow Kisses stamp set and colored him with  my Copic markers. Once I had him colored, I fussy cut him out and added him with foam tape. I created a double bow using the Bow Dies to close my box.

I adhered a twist tie to my bow so that the box would be easy to open and close without the bow getting ruined. As it gets closer to giving this little box away, I plan to fill it with some little pumpkin mellowcremes and harvest corn candies. Adorable!

This was so super fun to put together!

I started by creating my card base from some Kraft cardstock. I cut a piece of plaid paper from the Autumn Plaids 6x6 Paper Pad and roughed up the perimeter a bit. I added some twine and adhered my plaid panel to the front of my card. I die cut a decorative oval piece twice, once from Kraft & once from cream, and layered them together, stamped my greeting and added it to the card front. Now the fun part! I stamped my images from the two new stamp sets, Fall Woodsy Critters & Happy Fall Foxes and colored them with my Copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and created my little scene. I finished my card by adding some copper Nuvo drops and a twine bow. 

Isn't that little raccoon the cutest? He is so proud of that pumpkin! lol!

I had so much fun creating this card! I started by adding some layers (kraft scallop and patterned paper) onto an A2 white cardbase. Next, I stamped my images from the Happy Fall stamp set from Gerda Steiner, colored them with my Copic markers and fussy cut them out. I very lightly inked around a white cardbase with some residual ink left on my ink blending brushes in blue and brown and starting building my scene. I used my Cricut to die cut my greeting and added my little squirrel and tree stump. Once I had those elements adhered, I started randomly adding my leaves and acorns. I tied a hemp twine bow to my card base before popping up my image panel onto my card with foam tape. I completed the card by adding just a few little Nuvo drops to the bottom for a little interest. 

Copic Colors Used:

**Squirrel: E40, E41, E42, E43, E44, E04, R30**

Here is the card that I created based on the above inspirational photo:

I created my little cover using some Kraft cardstock and cutting two pieces measuring 3 1/4" by 7 1/4". I then scored each piece at 1 1/4" to create the bottom. I adhered the two bottoms together and used the Double Stitched Ovals Die to create my handles.  I cut a dark brown piece of cardstock out using the Scalloped Rectangles Die and adhered that to the front of my cover. I trimmed a piece of light blue cardstock down to fit inside my scallop rectangle and stamped my sentiment from the Christmas Sweater Luka Rubber Stamp with some black ink. Next I used the Apple Orchard Die that came in the October 2020 Product Kit and cut two pieces from white cardstock to create my scene. I colored the grassy hills and tree trunks with my COPIC markers and paper pieced the tree tops using some plaid paper from the Christmas Hodgepodge Paper Pack. I stamped that adorable little Marci, fussy cut her out, colored her with COPIC markers and placed her onto my scene. I added a few pumpkins from the Halloween House Add-On Die Set and some gold Nuvo Drops for a little interest. I completed my bag by adding a fun little bow that I cut out using more of the plaid patterned paper and the Stitched Bow Die to the top. 

I attached a couple of small Velcro Dots to keep my cover closed and added a little bag of candy to the inside.

Other Products Used:

--Cardstock: White (Hammermill), Kraft, Blue and Brown (Recollections)

--Misc.: Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, Foam Tape, Nuvo Drops, Glossy Accents, White Gel Pen

To create my card, I started by making an A2 card base from some green cardstock. I used the Scalloped Rectangles Die to cut out my cream rectangle and layered a strip of brown cardstock on top. I wrapped some twine around and adhered the panel to my green cardbase. I used the Scalloped Rectangles Die again to cut out a piece of green patterned paper from the Christmas Hodgepodge Paper Pack and popped it up onto my card front with some foam tape. I colored the Coffee Break Marci with my Copic markers, fussy cut her out and popped her up onto my card with more foam tape.  I used a sentiment from the Marci with Pen stamp set, cut it out using a rectangle that is included in the Horizontal Pocket Die and tucked it behind Marci. I cut some leaves from some gold glitter paper using the Filigree Leaves Die and adhered them to the top with a twine bow.  I completed my card with some gold and brown Nuvo drops. 

Super simple but I think it's so sweet.
