Now onto the fun part. Got three basic holidays covered in one post...running from Halloween to Thanksgiving (or Autumn) to Christmas.

First up is a card featuring Skull Frame (S765). It was stamped three times and embossed in different colors on different papers. Each layer was then trimmed out and mounted with foam tape to give it some dimension. A preprinted sentiment was matted and attached to the front with foam tape, and all layers were attached to a grey card base.
Jumping now to Autumn, Beautiful Autumn (SD820) was stamped and embossed in bronze. Watercolors were added to show off the beautiful colors of Fall. A few leaves were punched and adhered to the bottom of the card with a few glitter dots added.

Lets start with some beautiful Draped Ornaments (S764). These were stamped oto white cardstock and colored in with Nuvo Glitter Markers. The panel was trimmed and adhered to a white card panel. a pine bough was printed, trimmed, and added to the top. the sentiment is from the new set, Gifts of Christmas (SS081).
Speaking of Gifts of Christmas, the next two cards feature two more sentiments from the set of five. The sentiments are so elegant and pretty, they stand on their own as the cards' main focal point.

Another fun stamp is Christmas Dog (SD730). I paired it with The Stockings Were Hung (SDX1107) to create a funny card.
And I saved my favorite for the end. It was so pretty, I didn't feel it even needed a sentiment. It can be used for any type of greeting.  This beautiful Pinecone (SD821) was stamped and embossed in chocolate/bronze. I added some colored pencil highlights and finished it off with a puffy paint pen and glitter to set off a shine snow-like effect. The background is not a new release, but it is one of my wintery favorites, Pinecones (S673).
I hope you have been enjoying the hop. Don't forget to leave lot of comments to be entered to win one of TWO $100 TJ Gift Certificates. And remember the new stamps are only on special until September 8th! For any other of the stamps, feel free to use my coupon code and save 10%!
