Kristina Werner August 2025 Release

August 11, 2025

Hey everyone. Today I’m sharing cards made with the Kristina Werner August 2025 release. This release is so good. Okay let’s start with my first card.

This beautiful card was created using the new Thankful Leaves Stamp and coordinating stencil. What is so amazing about the stencil said is you can create a beautiful leaf background without having to have the stamp set itself. Also within the stencil pack, there is a stencil that you can use to create one background in just one color or you can choose to color your leaves in a autumn color palette like I have shared here.

First, I stamp the image in Concord & 9th nutmeg ink. For the colors of my leaves, I used spiced cider, cayenne nut, make grasshopper, and honeycomb inks also from Concord & 9th. I’m in love with how good this card turned out. The sentiment is from the new Sending Trio stamp set. It’s a good one to have in your stash.

Now for my next card, I went a little crazy. I love the new Botanic Shade stencil. This stencil pack is wildly fun to create with. For the look of added texture, I used the new Wood Lines background stamp through one of the stencils to create this abstract look on some of the leaves.

I used some the the same colors I used on my first card since I loved them so much. To finish off this card I used the new Thick and Thin Thanks die. Since the background was very busy, this card needed just a simple thanks.

And to finish off this card, I pulled out a few Concord & 9th enamel dots to add to the background of the card. The finished card size for this card is 5×7. I hope I’ve inspired you to grab the new products from Kristina Werner and start creating your fall cards. Thanks for stopping by today.

Altenew October 2024 Release Blog Hop

October 4, 2024

Welcome to the Altenew October 2024 Release blog hop! I’m so excited to have you with me today. I have a few cards to share with you using products from this release. You can see the entire collection here.

For my first card, I used the new Pumpkin Patch Simple Coloring Stencil set with the coordinating Pumpkin Patch 3D Embossing Folder.

To create this card, I stenciled the pumpkin patch simple coloring stencil onto the new Sicilian Amber Cardstock. This cardstock color is perfect for fall cards. The inks I used were Sunkissed, Orange Cream, Autumn Blaze, Fire Brick, and Hunter Green. All these colors are new from Altenew.

The sentiment for the card came from the Pumpkin Patch Outline stamp set. The stamp said also has coordinating dies, which I used to die cut out the large sentiment. The smaller sentiment was trimmed down with my paper trimmer. In addition, I added some beautiful Citrine Gems using the new Perfect Picker tool.

Now my second I REALLY love how it turned out. For this card I stamped the Pumpkin Patch Outline Stamp Set with Espresso Ink onto Vanilla Cream Cardstock. Gold shimmer spray was applied over the image. This gave the image incredible sparkle.

Once the spray tried, I die cut out the image using an oval die cut. Then I used several fall colored alcohol markers from Altenew to color in the pumpkins making sure to not color every pumpkin. This is such a cool effect.

Now for the background, I used Vanilla Cream Cardstock and ran it through my die cutting machine with the Altenew Woven Basket Embossing Folder. To make the design stand out, I swiped Altenew Sand Dunes and Rocky Shore inks over the embossed area. All that was left was to add the beautiful pumpkins to my woven background and add a sentiment.

Hero Arts September 2023 MMH CLASSIC Release

September 5, 2023

Welcome to the Hero Arts September 2023 MMH CLASSIC Release. You should have arrived here from Channin’s blog. Our September release includes one of our most popular product combinations – a window die with coordinating layering stencils! In this beautiful fall-themed kit, the window is decorated with leaves and mushrooms, ideal for the autumn season. The kit’s 4×6 stamp set features decorated script messages which can nestle perfectly within the window. There are four ink cubes to use with the layering stencils, and a white lacquer pen for adding spots to your mushrooms – or for any other creative ideas you may have! And calling all shaker card aficionados – we’ve got you covered with clear card panels in the kit, too.

CLASSIC
• Fall Messages Clear Stamp Set, 4″ x 6″
• 3 Color Layering Stencils, 5.25″ x 6.5″
• Coordinating Fall Window Die
• 4 Core Ink Cubes (Spicy Mustard, Caramel, Cherry, Espresso)
• 8 Clear Card Panels, 4.25″ x 5.5″
• Unicorn Lacquer Pen

For my card today I used all the inks included in the kit! This is such a pretty fall color palette. And if you have been to my blog before, you know I love me a good color palette. Even though the fall season is here in the US, we are still burning up here in Florida. So I can only get my fall vibes off of a card right now. LOL

To add just a punch of color, I pulled in some beautiful teal blue paper. The Hero Arts Adriatic paper was the perfect color.

The muted hue of this paper works well with deep reds, yellows and browns. Give it a try with your fall cards.

As usual, I have a tutorial for you today. You can watch it here or over on my Youtube channel mzdanajoy And if you want to see what other cards I have made with Hero Arts releases, click here.

I also have an add-on card for you today featuring the HEro Arts Pumpkins and Leaves Transfer. Talk about easy cardmaking. With these rub-ons there is no coloring required. That’s a win when you need quick cards. To keep with the fall theme, I pulled in shades of orange, yellow and a hint of light brown.

The beautiful background was created using the new Leaves and Swirls stencil.

Pre-order your kit today – we estimate kit shipping will begin Friday, September 8th and continue throughout the week. Remember you can subscribe to your kit/kits each month and never miss out. Let’s not forget about the giveaway either.

Next on the hop Emily! Have a great time hoping around. Take cae!
