Joy Clair - October Challenge "Anything Goes"

Hello everyone!

I am here with Joy Clair and we have a new challenge this month! As always it is "anything goes" but the design team has an inspirational photo. I hope you will join, the challenge runs all month and one person has the opportunity to win a $25 gift card to the Joy Clair store.

Here is the inspiration photo:

Here is my take on the inspirational photo.  I have created an autumn card using the Hello Autumn stamp set, it reminds me of the cool mornings we have been having.  The technique I have done here is to take an acrylic block and ink it up and stamp on the card.  I then stamped the leaves on top.  I love how it turned out.  The sentiment is from the Hello Autumn set, I stamped it and die cut it and adhered it to the layer and popped it up.

Joy Clair November Challenge - Stencil It

Hello everyone,

It's the beginning of November and Joy Clair has a new challenge which is "Stencil It".  Joy Clair has a challenge starting at the beginning of every month.  There may be an inspiration photo, but the challenges are always "Anything Goes".  Joy Clair will be giving away one $25 gift card to the Joy Clair Store, randomly selected to give everyone a chance to win.

Here is the inspirational photo and my card for your inspiration:

My card is an A2 card, I cut another layer, stamped the sentiment from the Joy Clair Fall Leaves stamp set with versamark and embossed it with white embossing powder.  I then added some foam tape to pop the layer up on my card.  I then stamped the leaves from the Joy Clair Fall Leaves on some color card stock and embossed it in white.  I popped the leaves up with foam tape and finished the card off by adding a bow with some twine.

JOY CLAIR - FALL COFFEE LOVERS BLOG HOP

I HAVE TWO POST TODAY, IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE A2Z SCRAPBOOKING POST, CLICK HERE

Hello everyone,

I am here with Joy Clair playing along with the Fall Coffee Lover's Blog Hop!  Joy Clair is a Super Sponsor for the first time and you have a chance to win a gift card to spend at the Joy Clair's store.

Joy Clair has several stamp sets, a bible journaling line called "Color by Faith" and custom stamps. Stop over and check out their blog and see what the design team has created.

I am using the "My Cup Runneth Over" stamp set and the "Hello Autumn" set to create my card.

How I created my card,

1.  Base of the card is A2, 4 1/4 x 5 1/2,

2.  I used a stitched die for the white layer,

3.  I put some low tack artist tape around the edges and used distress inks to make the background,

4, I added the leaves around the card from the Joy Clair stamp set "Hello Autumn"  with Memento rich cocoa ink before I picked up the painters tape,

5.  I stamped the coffee cups from the Joy Clair "My Cup Runneth Over" stamp set with black memento ink,

6,  I fuzzy cut the cups using only the two bottom cups,

7.  I colored them with copics and added wink of stella for some glimmer,

8.  I added gold splatter to the layer,

9.  I used foam tape and popped the cups on the card,

10.  I finished the card by adding the sentiment from the "Hello Autumn" stamp set.
