Leaves are "Gently Falling"

Gently Falling is a two-step stamp set which gives extra detail! I stamped the leaves and then embossed the background w/ the Textured Embossing Folder and my fav BIG SHOT!! The large leaf on the left is cut out and popped up with a dimensional. I love the greeting from Occasions Alphabet! Click "Gently Falling" in the list at the right to see more ideas for this set. ENJOY!

This is an easy "trick:" ink up your clear acrylic block with a Classic (dye) ink pad. Then stamp it as a soft frame for your main image. Here it anchors the "Gently Falling" 2-step leaf. To create the ruffle, place Sticky Strip on the very edge of the back side of the cardstock and pleat the soft Seam Binding ribbon and press onto the Sticky Strip. Such a lovely touch!

Gently Falling is a FUN 2-step stamp set of 12! I used a Stampin' Up! clear Acrylic block inked on a Crumb Cake ink pad to create the soft square background - so easy. To make this ruffle, put a strip of Sticky Strip along the very back edge of your card. Then pinch and attach Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding Ribbon to the Sticky Strip. The Stampin' Up! Seam Bindings are soooo flexible and easy to use with this technique.

Gently Falling Stamp Set of 12 isn't just for the colorful northern Autumns. Leaves are wonderful for lots of occasions like men's birthdays, sympathy, thinking of you, thanks yous, etc! I stamped the two-step images and then embossed the cardstock with Square Lattice Embossing Folder and my Big Shot.

 
The embellishment is a huge Spice Cake Designer Button! LOVE this stamp set!! Stop back tomorrow for another idea with this versatile set.

Stampin' Up!'s NEW "Gently Falling" Stamp Set

 
HELP...I can't stop! I've created over 30 cards with this one stamp from Gently Falling Stamp Set in the NEW Holiday Mini Catalog and the Mocha Morning Specialty Papers!! Everyone is different, but soooo classy! Neutrals have a distinct elegance. The sweet raised frames around the leaf are the new Designer Frames {set of two} Embossing Folders for the Big Shot Die Cutting Machine.

 
These cards can be used for soooo many occasions. I like to keep lots of blank cards on hand and add the greeting as I send them.

 
This card from my upline, Tami Waddell in CA, was my inspiration. I just loved her creation. The great thing about stamping is SHARING all our ideas!
