It is Friday the 13th and I am having fun with Painted Pumpkins….. again. I have been sending out cards this month and will be starting on holiday cards this next week, so get ready! Today I am thankful for my health. If you have followed me for a little bit, you know that I have been on a weight loss journey and I am so proud of where I am and thankful that I have done the work. See my before and after pictures at the end of this post. Now on with today’s card.
Today’s card uses several elements that, as an Avid crafter, I have in my craft space. I feature a new ribbon, a new embossing folder, a staple die cut and wonderful colors!
The Painted Pumpkins Stamp Set is filled with seasonal images, leafy details, and greetings that bring big cozy energy to every project. Made for two-step stamping, it gives you all kinds of layering possibilities, so your pumpkins look textured, vibrant, and totally custom. Think pumpkin spice in stamp form, ready to add a warm seasonal touch to your crafting..

I believe the 3D embossing folders is what really makes this card POP. Rustic Check 3D embossing folder of Pool Party card stock layered with Secret Sea just pops with the colors of the Designer Series Paper.

Did you notice the single pumpkin? The bundle has dies that cut out the pumpkins on the designer series paper. Stampin’ Up! makes is so easy to coordinate colors and textures.

Here is the picture that my cousin posted of me when I came to visit. I couldn’t get that Facebook tag off of that picture fast enough. It was THEN that I decided that enough was enough!

The next picture is 1-1/2 years later.

I am still wanting to lose more weight because I do have Fatty Liver Disease and my doctor keeps urging me to keep my mouth shut! if you are struggling, just start over every day.
