New Kitchen Sink Stamps!
Today is the day I get to share a sneak peek of one of the new Kitchen Sink Stamp sets being released tomorrow, August 5 - YEA!! Maria has done it again - 7 super great sets!! I am just so blessed to be working with such fabulous companies - and KSS is no exception! :)
For my first card today I used 3 Step Autumn Squirrel and made a more traditional fall-ish card. I used some Basic Grey Mellow paper and stitched down a couple layers with my sewing machine. The cute little squirrel is such a fun, life-like image and I love the acorn (there 2 different sized acorns in the set).
Cardstock: Dark Chocolate, Vintage Cream (Papertrey Ink), Stamps: 3 Step Autumn Squirrel (Kitchen Sink Stamps), Inks: Desert Sand (Memento), Close to Cocoa, Chocolate Chip, Always Artichoke (SU!), Accesories: Ribbon (Papertrey Ink & May Arts), Dimensionals, Nestabilities, sewing machine, Brads
To give you an idea of what else is included in this 3 Step Squirrel set here's another card. For this one I used the 2 leaves included in the set- aren't they so pretty?! I wanted a clean, uncluttered card here to show off the beauty of the leaves so I embossed 3 interlocking rectangular frames with the Nestabilities (NOTE: work from the bottom up when embossing the frames and only roll through enough to emboss the new frame. Don't go over the first one done or else the embossing will get flattened.)
Cardstock: Confetti White (SU!), Stamps: 3 Step Autumn Squirrel, Inks: (I'll come back with this in a bit!), Accessories: Nestabilities

Oh my, I can't even tell you which card I like better. They are both fantastic. I LOVE squirrels - too cute - but I have a thing about anything fall-related, and I love the new leave images. I can hardly wait to see the stamp sets released - woohoo! Thanks for the beautiful inspiration. Take care and God bless ... Elizabeth S. in mid-Michigan
