I couldn’t help myself…I had to use the new Autumn Leaves stamp set bundle from the upcoming Stampin’ Up! September-December 2023 Mini Catalog to make another fall card.  I particularly love the sentiments in this stamp set…but I’m a little biased since I helped to design it as my $1M sales milestone stamp set.

I started by coloring two strips of Pecan Pie DSP from the Glorious Gingham 6″ x 6″ DSP pack with the Light Crumb Cake Stampin Blends Marker.  Then I adhered the strips of DSP to the right and left side of a Pecan Pie card base.  I stamped the leaf images from the Autumn Leaves photopolymer stamp set (available September 6) in Crumb Cake and Pecan Pie inks on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock.

I adhere the stamped panel to a panel of Pecan Pie card stock and then to the card front with Stampin’ Seal.  Then I added a layer of White Vellum to the card front with Stampin’ Seal (hidden under the sentiment area).  I adhered a small length of Pecan Pie 1/2″ Bordered Ribbon with Stampin’ Seal to the card font and then cut panels of Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie and Gold Foil Sheets with dies from the Autumn Leaves Dies (available September 6).  I adhered the die cut leaves with Mini Glue Dots to the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock, sprinkled it with gold embossing powder from the Metallics Embossing Powders and then heat embossed it.  I cut the sentiment out with the coordinating die from the Autumn Leaves Dies and adhered it with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card front.  I added three Champagne gems from the Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems to finish the card front.

I stamped the leaf images from the Autumn Leaves stamp set in Crumb Cake and Pecan Pie inks on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock to finish the inside of the card.

You can see a list of supplies used to create this project, including the card stock cuts, at the very bottom of this blog post.

My $1 Million Stamp Set – Autumn Leaves!!

It’s finally here!!  My stamp set to celebrate my $1 Million Sales achievement is in the upcoming Stampin’ Up! September-December 2023 Mini Catalog!  I love it and I hope that you love it as much as I do!

I was thrilled when I found out the my stamp set would have a coordinating set of dies (who doesn’t love a bundle?!?) and twice as thrilled when I found out that it would be part of a full product suite!!!

When you get your catalogs, you can see the All About Autumn Suite Collection on pages 42-43 and the stamp set and bundle are shown again on page 44!  I also show the full suite in my preorder unboxing video (you can see that below!) so you can see the pretty coordinating papers, ribbon, embellishments and embossing folder.

A huge thank you to all of my customers for supporting my little business and for helping me to reach that $1M sales milestone!!

Disclaimer:  I am required by Stampin’ Up! to state that less than 1% of Demonstrators reach $1M in sales.
