Ever Grateful - KSS Monday
Wow it's been several days since I posted hasn't it? I've been home enjoying life with new baby and being back with my family. Baby Owen and I are doing just fine. He's gaining weigh and doing everything that he's supposed to at this point so that's great!
Well, since it's Monday that means another fabulous Kitchen Sink Stamps Monday! I'm looking forward to seeing what the other Crew members have today - be sure you check them out too!
It took me a few tries to get the color scheme I wanted. I also didn't realize the first time I used it that for the mums, Steps 2 & 3 are the leaves - stamp them in green! Duh! :) But after I figured that out it was pretty simple, and think of all the pretty colored mums you could make! Here is what I used for colors:
Mums:
Step 1 - Dandelion (stamped off) - Memento
Step 2 - Ripe Avocado - PTI
Step 3 - New Leaf - Memento
Step 4 - Hibiscus - PTI
Step 5 - Rhubarb Stalk - Memento
Basket:
Step 1 - Desert Sand - MementoSep 2 - Creamy Caramel - SU!
Step 3 - Rich Cocoa - Memento
Step 4 - Chocolate Chip - SU!
Hay:
Step 1 - Desert Sand - Memento
Step 2 - Desert Stand
Step 3 - Rich Cocoa - Memento
I also used a pumpkin from the Multi-Step Pumpkins set and popped it up with foam adhesive in front of the hay bale (don't you just love that hay bale?!!) Oh and how about the sentiment? This set, Multi-Step Harvest has a wonderful mixture of fonts and sentiments - the combinations are perfect!
I hope you have a wonderful Monday! If you haven't already, be sure to check out all the new KSS - there's something for everyone!!
Cardstock: Kraft (Papertrey Ink), White, Patterned Paper: Everday Dots (Papertrey Ink), Stamps: Multi-Step Harvest, Multi-Step Pumpkins (Kitchen Sink Stamps), Inks: see above, Accessories: Burlap, Ripe Avocado ribbon (Papertrey Ink), foam adhesive, Corner rounder punch

What a gorgeous autumn card, Julie!!
Your sensational basket of mums looks stunning with the burlap layer in back and the popped up pumpkin in front!!
Hope you continue to take things easy as you delight in your new baby boy!
Beautiful combination of KSS images and colors! Love the addition of the Burlap layer.
This is so pretty, Julie!!
The burlap looks awesome with the images!
This is just so pretty, Julie!! Love the fall flowers with the popped up pumpkin!!
Wow, not sure how you manage to do it all! :) So pretty -- especially with the burlap! Love it!
Beautiful!!
So pretty Julie! How do you do it all?!? I'm so glad baby Owen is doing well! Congrats again!!!
That color combo is perfect for these "fallishness" stamps. The polkadots and ribbon pull the green out of the mums nicely. Such a beautiful card.
So happy to hear that you and Owen are doing well. My love to your whole family! :)
this is stunning!!
Your card is so gorgeous, Julie!! I love the beautiful images, and your burlap layer really sets it off!!
I don't even know what to say, amazing! You make that stamping/blending look so easy, you rock girl!
Love this Julie!! Perfect fall card. I hope you and baby are doing well and resting!
So glad you and little Owen are home and both happy and healthy! I love this new multi step set - what great mums! and of course I love the pumpkin too!! the burlap behind the image is perfect Julie!
Simply AMAZING Jules! LOVE every bit of this! Hope you and Owen are doing great! BIG hugs girlie!!!
Love the fall scene you've created, Julie! The burlap mat is the perfect frame for the panel. And, I made the very same mistake with the leaves the first time I used this set--LOL!
That is beautiful! Those mums remind me of the ones we had at our wedding. They were HUGE! Glad to hear everyone is doing well. Can't wait to see some more pics of Owen. Enjoy the sunshine today.
