I used the Stampin’ Up! Frosted Pinecones stamp set bundle from the upcoming September-December 2026 Catalog to create my project for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a color challenge this week and this is what I made for it.

Here is the sketch that we’re all using this week:

I started by adhering a panel of patterned paper from the Winter Dreams Specialty DSP (Online Exclusive item available September 1) to the front of a Secret Sea card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Then I stamped the pinecone image from the Frosted Pinecones stamp set (available September 1) in Secret Sea ink on a panel of Basic White card stock.

I used Blending Brushes and the Frosted Pinecones Decorative Masks (available September 1) to apply Pecan Pie Mossy Meadow inks to the stamped image. I placed the final stencil over the stamped image and then tapped VersaMark ink over the stamped image. I sprinkled white embossing powder from the Basics Wow! Embossing Powder over the image and then heat embossed it. I cut the image out with the coordinating Frosted Pinecones Dies (available September 1) and then adhered it with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Frosted Pinecones stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Mossy Meadow card stock, sprinkled it with white embossing powder and then heat embossed it. I adhered the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Seal and then added three Adhesive-Backed Snowflakes to finish the card front.

I stamped the sentiment and pinecone images from the Frosted Pinecones stamp set in Mossy Meadow and Secret Sea inks on a panel of Basic White card stock to finish the inside of the card.
