Stamping With Friends Blog Hop-The Season of Fall

I enjoy fall when it arrives, the leaves changing colors, the smell of hot apple cider in the crock pot simmering for the evenings bonfire. We chat, listen to music, make smores and drink some cider. I love my cider to have caramel in it, tastes like eating a caramel apple. Also with the cooler weather comes out the sweaters. I love a comfy sweater when sitting by a bonfire. Fall has arrived here in Ohio. Tonight’s forecast is a low of 46 degrees, perfect for a bonfire!

My card today features the Knit Together stamp with the Knit Sweater dies on page 34 of the holiday catalog. You can create many styles of sweaters with this set and in any color. My card base is from the Gingerbread and Peppermint Memories and More Cards and Envelopes on page 9 of the holiday catalog. I cut a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock 3×4. I stamped the sweater image in Crumb Cake. I then die cut the flowers/snowflakes, cross pattern and deer from this. I added strips of cardstock to the back in Basic White, Shaded Spruce and Early Espresso. Added some red Wonderful Gems on page 62-63 of the holiday catalog.

I hope I have inspired you to use this stamp set. Here is a few more ideas on using it.

Now on to the next hop over on Tricia Butts blog. Thanks for stopping by~
