Casing the Catalog with the Postage Stamp Punch
I really like the card featuring the Posted for You bundle on page 81 of the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. I thought it would be a fun card for a class, too, so I could show how to change sizes with the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch. But I usually make a few changes when I case a card, and this time I changed everything but the layout! (btw, CASE stands for Copy And Share Everything)
For starters, I used the Rooted in Nature stamp set. I love the Postage Stamp Punch and you can use it with so much more than its companion stamp set. I also wanted to do an autumn card for my September class.
Since I haven’t used Terracotta Tile much this fall, I started with that color, then picked the images and colors. You’ll notice I used the triple-leaf image twice. I used the Bumblebee marker to color and stamp two leaves for one postage stamp, then I stamped the full image for another postage stamp.
The other colors are Bermuda Bay, Cinnamon Cider and Pretty Peacock. All the images are stamped on Very Vanilla, and the card base is the Very Vanilla Thick cardstock.

The 2019 In Colors: Terracotta Tile
I knew the Terracotta Tile In Color would be one of my favorites as soon as I saw it! Warm tones are my favorites, as are the colors of fall. One of the first few cards I made with these new In Colors was this one, using the Terracotta Tile designer series paper and ribbon.
