LDRS Creative - October Feature Day Blog Hop - Day 1

Hello everyone and welcome to our Fall and Halloween Feature!

For the next two days, the Design Team has created gorgeous projects to inspire you with the latest Fall collection that is now available in a local craft store near you!

We are talking about... 

The A View for All Seasons Stamps (with a perfect coordinating die set), Woodland Wonderland Stamps (also with a coordinating die set available), and No Matter the Weather Stamps.

Some amazing Halloween High Jinks Stamps (cut out in no time with the coordinating die set), Happy Haunting Stamps (with a perfect coordinating die set here), and one of the new Petal Pusher sets, Pick of the Patch (and its die set)!

We also continued adding to our wonderful Basic dies line: In the Breeze Die Set, Down Main Street Die, and Over the Hills Die. Not to forget Up a Tree Die Set, Garden Gateway Die Set, Garden Wreath Die Set. They fit with all of our products, so don't miss on them!

People have been amazed by the thickness of the brand new Fall 6x6 paperpack, Sweater Weather - 6x6 Paper. How GORGEOUS is it?!

And of course, a brand new all-in-one stencil called A Walk in the Park - 6x6 Stencil !

So we are featuring a little Fall/Halloween inspiration today and I have used the fabulous PICK OF THE PATCH stamp set to make my card. 

I began by making my card base. I love this technique using a larger die to make a card blank.  All you need to do is just fold a piece of card in half and place one edge of the die just above the fold line and cut through both layers.  The die I used for my card base is from the SCALLOPED RECTANGLE FRAME set and I also used the same die to cut a mat from the SWEATER WEATHER paper pack. This helps to disguise the fact that the folded edge is missing some of the intricate die cut detail. On top of that I took the next die within the set and cut another piece of SWEATER WEATHER paper. 

With my RAVEN HYBRID INK PAD I stamped a sentiment then glued all my layers together.

I took some smooth card stock and made up the pumpkin from the layering stamps in the PICK OF THE PATCH stamp set.  I then cut it out using the SCALLOPED CIRCLE FRAME die set and stamped all around the edge with some of the foliage stamps.

Using two of the dies in the SCALLOPED CIRCLE FRAME set I cut a frame to place over my topper, raising it up with foam tape.

Hey Pumpkin!!
