Thank You - Nature's Harvest
Hello and welcome to my blog; today I have a fun little card to share with you using the Nature's Harvest Stamp Set. This beautiful stamp set and bundle is a returning favorite from the 2021 July - December Mini Catalog from Stampin' Up! which made it's way into the 2022-2023 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog, and I couldn't be more happy about that. My card design today is based on one of my Crafty Card Sketches for the month of July. Here's a look at the project I created to share with you today.

Card Sketches:
At the first of each month I send out my Creative Crafty Calendar to my email subscribers. On my Creative Crafty Calendar I have a new creative prompt each day to help inspire you and to get your creative mojo going if you are in a rut. On some days I have a card sketch which I also send in that same email each month. This is my Crafty Card Sketch #6 which is one of the ones I have for the month of July. So, if you are not on my email list now is a great time to get on it. You can click the link above to join my email list.

Nature's Harvest & Rays of Light:

The Nature's Harvest Stamp Set is perfect for sending heartfelt messages of love and support to the people you hold dear. Along with touching sentiments that have a classic font style, this stamp set also includes botanical images that have a timeless feel. The neutral and classic designs are perfect for everyone in your life.

I used the Rays of Light Stamp Set to the layer above the DSP layer to add a little texture to the card. The Rays of Light Stamp Set allows you to brighten your crafting. The bold rays emanate from an offset open circle to create a sense of light and shadow. To create a quick card, use this stamp to stamp the background on your card base, then stamp a sentiment over the ray image. Done! If you want to step it up, layer punched or die-cut pieces over the rays.

Rings of Love Designer Series Paper:
Create charming paper crafts all year long with the Rings of Love 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper. This paper includes images of cottages, mushrooms, acorns, birds, tree rings, and flowers perfect for card fronts for your cards. Or cut out individual images to use as accents. Want to make it easier? You can cut out some of the images with the dies included in the coordinating Tree Rings Hybrid Embossing Folder. The paper also includes basic patterns that you can use with any project. This paper is one of the Sale-A-Bration items that's being offered during the months of July and August. All Sale-A-Bration items are while supplies last.

To finish off the card I added a few of the 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds to each of the colored layers. I also used the Harvest Dies to cut out the sentiment. I cut out the colored cardstocks using the stitched rectangle die in the Celebrations Tags Dies. Thanks for dropping by today I hop you have a wonderful day. You will find all the items listed below in the Shopping List that I used on my card today.

Happy Stampin'
