MY CARDS:

I've created a few cards to help celebrate this fun month. Up first is the fun, Pumpkin to Talk About stamp set. I used Copic markers to color the image and added an embossed sentiment on a vellum strip.

Next up is a really cool stencil set called, Quilting Quarters. The creativity is endless with this set. I used it with some pastel inks to create a fun, geometric background. The die cut Thanks is from the Autumn Leaf Frames die set.

For this next card, I used the Falling Hearts embossing folder. I framed the embossed panel with a soft pink frame to create a cute shaker card. The sentiment is from an older set.

I used the Block Alpha Words stamp set for my next card. I ink-blended a panel, then white embossed one part of the stamp set, and just stamped the other. I thought the contrast was fun. So many possibilities with this set too!

Last but not least is this adorable, little stamp set called, Pumpkin Spice Vibes. Another ink-blended panel, but with fall colors this time. After coloring the cups with Copics, I fussy cut them out to adhere to the panel for a bit of dimension.

Okay, That's it from me. I hope I've given you a few ideas for using some of the products in this amazing release! Enjoy the rest of the party and happy STAMPtember!
