Harvest Hellos card with an apple punched from Ornate Gardens DSP

A Simple Thank You Card

Recently, I borrowed my friend’s Harvest Hellos stamp set and Apple Builder Punch. Its a bundle I almost bought when it premiered in a Holiday catalog, then it carried over to the Annual catalog…and I still haven’t gotten it. So thank you, Julie.

I used the stamps and punch for one of my October Monthly Stamp Class projects, which you can see on my Instagram account.

Those cards were made by stamping the apple or the pumpkin on paper from the Brights Designer Series Paper Collection. Stamping on DSP is a simple thing we often forget about, but it can be a great alternative to coloring. While scrolling through Pinterest, I saw the apple stamp punched from the plaid of the Toile Tiding DSP (by Patty Bennett).

Love the plaid, so I borrowed that idea and made this simple thank you card.

But I didn’t stop there! I stamped a red toile apple from the same DSP, another from the Ornate Garden DSP, and a green apple from the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP.

Playing with Greens

The Forever Greenery suite is definitely one of my favorite suites in this year’s catalog. I really like the Distinktive style of stamps, and the images work so well together and are so versatile. Plus, with the Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper it is so easy to play with greens! And I like the color green, so there’s one more reason to love this suite.

For this card I started with the two greens in the DSP strip I chose: Soft Sea Foam and Just Jade.
