Hello Fall ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Who doesn't love the colors that fall brings?  
Most of us do and I had to create another fall card while the season is here. 

I started following a new sketch challenge FB group called Journey Sketches and couldn't resist creating this quick and simple thank you card.  Plus I needed a card for my October stamp a stacks and this sketch was perfect for whipping up a card!

There are so many ways to color leaves, but for this card I used three different ink colors from Fun Stampers Journey (listed below).  I used sponges to dab the color onto the stamp starting with the lightest and dabbing it all over the stamp.  Then I added the second color and dabbed it around the edges making sure I left some yellow in the middle.  The last and darkest color I dabbed just around the edges of the stamp.  Does that make sense?  I hope so!  After I cut out the leaf (with a die, of course!) I spritzed it with Sparkle Silk that was mixed with 70% rubbing alcohol to make it shimmer all over.  My camera just didn't want to pick that up this time...bummer! lol

Join the Journey!

I have a second post for you today.  :)
Have you ever thought about joining Fun Stampers Journey? 
 If so boy does FSJ have a deal for you!!

When I joined I got the Journey Platinum Die Cutting Machine and wasn't sure what to think about it.  Let me tell you I love it!  It's a great machine and I don't ever need to cut my 8 1/2" x 11" card stock to run it through.  When prepping a LOT of cards a month for classes it sure comes in handy.  No extra cutting and less waste of paper when using my dies.  

Go to my website www.funstampersjourney.com/sarahoogendoorn. 
If you have any questions please contact me!  
I'm here to help all of my friends, customers and down line if you need it.

FSJ is also running a special for the month - Make Your Mark!
They are offering 25% off Journey Days Planners, Dies, Stamps and Accessories!  This is an awesome deal!

Once again go to my website www.funstampersjourney.com/sarahoogendoorn if you would like to order or for more information.

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Love Paris ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Today's card is one of my September Stamp a Stack cards.  It was simple to create and can be used for more than one occasion so I didn't put a sentiment on the front of the card. :)
