Autumn Leaves meet Oxidized Copper

Autumn is coming! And so is the September-December Mini Catalog on September 6th! And it is chocked full of autumn and other holiday stamps/dies/punches and more. You will love it--if you haven't seen it yet and want a copy, email me at stampwithdrrobin@gmail.com. This Autumn Leaves bundle and the suite is just gorgeous, from the dies to the ribbon to the Oxidized Copper Specialty Designer Series Paper. Please turn in to my Facebook Lives or YouTube to see it a bit more closely. 

 Let's make this card! Gather your supplies:

1. Very Vanilla Thick cardstock --Card base 5 1/2" by 8 1/2" scored on the long side at  4 1/4" and folded along the score line. Scrap about 1/2" by 3" for the sentiment. 
2. Pretty Peacock cardstock--one piece 4" by 5 1/4", a second piece 2 1/8" by 5 1/8", and a scrap for a leaf
3. Oxidized Copper DSP--cut a small leaf from each one
4. Copper Clay cardstock--cut a small leaf
5. Moody Mauve cardstock--cut a small leaf
6.  All About Autumn DSP cut 3 7/8" by 5 1/8", and the smaller piece 2" by 5 1/8"
7. Stamp Sets--Autumn Leaves (from the new Sept-Dec Mini Catalog)
8. Dies--Autumn Leaves  (from the new Sept-Dec Mini Catalog)
9. Ink--Pretty Peacock and Copper Clay
10. Copper and Natural Ribbon Combo Pack  (from the new Sept-Dec Mini Catalog)
11. Basic supplies--Bone folder, Paper Snips, adhesive (I like Multipurpose Glue), Paper Trimmer, Glue Dots, Take Your Pick Tool, Die Cutting and Embossing Machine, Mini and Regular Dimensionals

Fold your card base along the score line. Attach the larger piece of the All About Autumn DSP to the larger piece of Pretty Peacock and then attach it to the card base. Attach the smaller piece of DSP to the smaller piece of Pretty Peacock and attach that to the center of the card. 

Die cut 5 leaves with the small leaf dies (there are 2 of them!) out of Pretty Peacock, Copper Clay, Moody Mauve and both of the Oxidized Copper. Attached the 2 end leaves with Multipurpose Glue spaced out. Attached the other 2 leaves with Dimensionals. 

Stamp the sentiment in Pretty Peacock on the 1/2" piece of Very Vanilla and diagonally cut the ends. Attach it to the leaf with Multipurpose Glue. Cut the Copper Ribbon in half and tie a small bow. Attach with glue dots. 


For the inside, stamp the sentiment in Pretty Peacock. Using Copper Clay and the large leaf stamp, stamp it off 2-3 times and then stamp over the sentiment like below.

  Floating Christmas Tree So if you make a lot of holiday cards like I do, it is time to start working on them! I know, I know, we haven't had Halloween yet, but if you want to send them out before the holiday it is time to get working. And this lovely card was inspired by someone else (sorry I just took a picture of it but there was no name on it so I can't thank you) who used her scraps to make the tree. I took it one step further and made a floating scraps tree. I've been wanting to make a card with this technique for a while and I knew this tree would look fabulous like this. And the second bonus is that I got to use up a ton of Lights Aglow scraps, even the small ones. All you need to do is cut your scraps into 1/2" pieces, attach them to a piece of window sheet and then cut out whatever shape you like. What an amazing way to use up something you might have otherwise thrown out. Win! Win! If you get lost making this card, or you are just a visual learner, please w...

  Pick of the Patch Joy Fold Card This fun joy fold card just makes me smile. I'm loving the Pick of the Patch bundle lately for its versatility--it can make beautiful fall cards, great Thanksgiving cards, and today a Halloween card. And all from a relatively inexpensive punch bundle. Now are you wondering where the Pumpkin Pie Designer Series Paper in the background is from? It's not DSP--I made it with the Sketched Plaid background stamp. Another versatile stamp set that I'm sure will be making an appearance on some holiday cards later this year. For some hints and tips on using this large sized stamp, and making this card, please watch my Facebook Live down below. Better yet, join me every Monday at 1 pm PST on my Stamp with Dr Robin Facebook group to make another fun card.  Time to make this card! Gather your supplies: 1. Basic Black cardstock --Card base 4 1/4" by 8 1/2"" scored on the long side at  3" and folded along the score line. Second piece 3...

Playing with Thoughtful Journey DSP Hopefully you have received your new 2024-25 Annual Catalog by now--if not please email me at stampwithdrrobin@gmail.com and let me send you one if you don't have a demonstrator. I am making a card today using the gorgeous 6" by 6" Thoughtful Journey DSP as each page is more beautiful than the last. These pages are stand alone amazing--all they really need is a sentiment added to make a card, but I thought I'd fancy them up today with some other new products. I am loving the In Color Glimmer Paper as well as the Unbounded Love bundle that I used for the sentiment. If you have trouble following along with these directions, please watch my Facebook live below.   Let's make this card. Gather your supplies:  1. Mossy Meadow cardstock --Card base 5 1/2" by 8 1/2" scored on the long side at  4 1/4" and folded along the score line. A second piece 3 3/4" by 2 3/8" 2. Basic White cardstock-- 3 3/4" by 5...
