lauralooloo: Celebrate Fall and Give Thanks With the Holiday Cheer NEW RELEASE from FSJ

Yesterday I shared my new favorite new stamp set from Fun Stampers Journey's Holiday Cheer collection. (If you missed it, I hope you'll click here and see it.) But as usual...today I have another favorite. A girl can have TWO favorites, right? (Or three...or maybe seven?)

I'm so pleased to introduce Fall Thanks. Seriously - can you EVEN with that sentiment? It is GORGEOUS, people. Want to see the whole sweet stamp set? You'll find it here - and it's available TODAY. On this card, I embossed the sentiment in copper and it just looks STUNNING with the yellows, browns and aquas.

A Little Bit of How-To:

To create the background: Brayer Haystack ink onto the Gel Press and splatter some Sparkle Silk. Pull print on Whip Cream cardstock and then splatter Dark Roast Silk.

(I think there were some remnants of another color from a previous project that added a little something extra to this print. I love that!)

A few layers of scraps and some die-cut Branch & Cone images pulled this together - and finished off with Golden Tansy Twine and Mixed Metallics accents. (That twine is AMAZING. It's stiff so it holds its shape SO well.)

Hopefully by now you have already read yesterday's post, so you've heard me rant, rave, and carry on about the excitement of today's Holiday Cheer Launch Party. But just in case you missed the details, here they are again:

To celebrate the launch of FSJ + Spellbinders new holiday products, we'll be partying LIVE TODAY on the Spellbinders YouTube channel. (The shindig starts at 9am Pacific time). Stop by the Holiday Cheer Landing Page to go directly to the video AND the new products!

You do NOT want to miss this party - all of the new products will be live in the shop, plus there will be specially priced bundles, giveaways, games and antics, demos and tutorials and all the fun you expect from our online launch parties!

Now, would you like to see a totally different look to the Fall Thanks stamp? On this card, I paired the amazing Give Thanks sentiment with a new Cut and Emboss Folder from Spellbinders, called Laurel & Bows. This is the very first time I've used one of the Cut and Emboss Folders, and DANG - it's AMAZING. It embosses AND cuts in one pass through the machine - the embossing is deep and perfect - and the cut is precise. I'm already a pretty big fan!

I love that this card doesn't even HAVE to be for fall or winter... this could be a fun thank you card all year long. (Oh, and did I mention that Fall Thanks has a coordinating die!? For the WIN!)

Alright my crafty peeps - I hope to see you at the FSJ + Spellbinders Holiday Cheer Launch Party TODAY - oh, and hey...just in case you miss it, not to fear - the whole show will be online for you to watch later on! Have a FABULOUS crafty day! xoxo
