Hi there everyone! BOY, am I excited to blog about something today! I was so graciously invited to join the Hello Bluebird Team to help launch the new release for September. The entire release is all about FALL things! Yippeeee! Leaves, pumpkins, Thanksgiving, Halloween, Pumpkin Spice, cute animals, cute witches… OH MY GOSH! It's all so amazing. I was smiling from ear to ear the entire time I was creating my cards! I'll be sharing four cards this week leading up to the release, and then two more cards a bit later in the month. ALL THE NEW STAMPS go live on 9/13 at 7pm MST. Mark your calendars because you're going to go crazy for this release just like I did!!
My first card of the new release previews is all about friends and Autumn. A cute little fox and his hedgehog friend walking through the leaves with a wheel barrow full of pumpkins. Personally, I think they're off to make a batch of PSL's. Ha! I used two new stamp sets: Leaf Play and Pumpkin Time.
The sentiments are PERFECTION! This one was my favorite! I stamped onto a little banner to mount onto my card. The finished card is A2 and I covered the front in pretty orange gingham. I die cut an oval from woodgrain paper. Underneath, I placed a layer of white paper that was stenciled with clouds.
These images are a joy to color! I used my Copic markers for all my projects because I love the look of that medium with these images. I colored extra pumpkins and piled them high in his cart! I like to add white gel pen highlights over my Copic coloring as the last step.
All the elements were attached to the card using foam squares for some dimension…I added some little leaves as accents also.
That little hedgie is entirely too adorable!
THANK YOU for stopping by today! All the new products will be live on 9/13 at 7pm MST. Until then, check the Hello Bluebird blog for more inspiration, or stop by the Hello Bluebird website to shop around. I guarantee you'll find something you love. (I just got the Yeti's!)…
More previews for the next three days – four days in all. Please come back tomorrow to see a fun Halloween card with a cutie patootie witch! XO
