I used the Stampin’ Up! Life Is Beautiful stamp set and Gold Cards & Envelopes to create a hello fall card to share with you today.I did a video tutorial for making this card on my Facebook page yesterday.  I’ve also uploaded it to my YouTube Channel so you can view it there too!

I started by stamping the tree image from the Life is Beautiful photopolymer stamp set (available Aug 4) in Soft Suede ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock.  Then I stamped the leaf image from the Life Is Beautiful stamp set in Pumpkin Pie ink twice “full strength” and twice without reinking.  I stamped the leaf image again in Crushed Curry ink, twice full strength and twice without reinking on the panel.

I stamped the birdhouse and bird image from the Life Is Beautiful stamp set in Crumb Cake ink on the Very Vanilla panel and then cut the image out with one of the Celebrations Labels Dies (available Aug 4).  I adhered the die cut panel to the front of one of the Gold Cards & Envelopes (available Aug 4) and then stamped the birdhouse image again in Real Red ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock.  I snipped out the birdhouse and adhered it over the stamped image on the die cut panel with a Glue Dot.

I adhered a strip of Gold 1/4″ Shimmer Ribbon to the card front with Stampin’ Seal.  Then I stamped the sentiment from the Life Is Beautiful stamp set in Real Red ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock and then cut it out with one of the Hippo & Friends Dies.  I adhered the die cut sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card front and added one of the Pumpkin Pie rhinestones from the Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels to finish the card front.

I stamped the tree image from the Life Is Beautiful stamp set in Soft Suede ink and the leaves in Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry inks on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock to finish the inside of the card.
