Falling Leaves

When I ordered Papertrey's All Booked Up, I also got Falling Leaves, a small $15 set that is utterly fabulous. I've already used every stamp in it on a number of cards, and this is one of my favorites!


More Mustard, chocolate chip, and a bit of layering, just like I do with my turtlenecks and sweaters in the fall. The simplicity of the stamp images makes me giddy. They are so easy to work with! Plus, the sentiments in this little set are wonderfully fall-ish.

Y'all already know how much I love fall.

And yesterday I picked up this year's issue of Papercrafts Christmas Cards and More, or whatever it's called. Anyway, all I can say is

THUD!

It may take a few days to even know where to begin in praising this magazine. I'm so excited about Christmas now!

Fall and Christmas. This time of year is a crafter's paradise!

  1. It's a heartfelt card.. As I saw this, my heart felt, thinking of the lovely time I passed during October-November in Houston, TX, some years ago.

  4. Ooh, gotta check out that new issue!
    And your card is great, of course, but I really know it's autumn for me when more mustard looks pretty again :) It just doesn't look right in the spring and summer!

  6. Perfect card! I don't really care for More Mustard, and probably have 98% of my original stock of it. But it looks just wonderful here. Lovely card!
