Love of Leaves Bundle

Helloo! Do you love the new catalogue?

It’s always lovely to have new toys – by that I mean each new catalogue launch! With Stampin’ Up!’s new catalogue release program, the “mini” is not so much a mini, but a mini “tome”! From cover to cover, the August-December 2020 Mini is 83 pages big!!! It overlaps the Annual Catalogue considerably but also gives you a longer lead in time to prepare for autumnal events, like Halloween, Thanksgiving and last, but not least, Christmas.

Going forward, I will be show casing products from both the Annual and the Seasonal catalogue but for today, I have something new from the August-December 2020 Mini. This card was made with the “Love of Leaves” bundle (page 49). The coordinating dies not only has stitched outlines, but there are separate dies which fit inside each leaf to create stitched details too.

There’s nothing I like more than trying to stretch my supplies, especially Designer Series Paper. Which camp are you in? To cut, or to stroke your DSP? For years, I fell under the stroke category and it pained me to cut up pretty paper until I saw the light! Most 12″x 12″ packs have 2 sheets of each design, so you can cut up one, and stroke the other!

I have been crafting for decades. Hoarding papers meant I was stock piling and so storage became a problem. Consequently, these days I am less sentimental and “chop” it all up.

Inside card

Here’s a peek inside the card. Instead of stamping, I punched a leaf aperture with one of the punches from the Autumn punch pack. This is a trio of punches from the Gilded Autumn Suite on pages 44 – 46.

I have a video tutorial – press play to see how it came together!

Here are the supplies I used.
