Team Blog Hop - Autumn Splendor

The Pineapple Paper Artists team blog hop this month features artwork with the theme

Autumn Splendor

Maybe you've seen GRETCHEN'S fall artwork, 

or you can start here and click through everyone's posts.

I used the theme as the title on my layout.

pattern: Magic, Now You See It

X7186B Pathfinding Paper Packet

Z3012 Pathfinding Assortment

1388 Colonial White cardstock

D1604 Season of Thanks stamp set

C1504 Fall Harvest stamp set

D1537 Glamour Uppercase

D1522 Glamour Lowercase

Z2174 Champagne stamp pad

Z2104 Barn Red stamp pad

Z697 Sponge

I stamped a background stamp in champagne ink 

on the colonial white title and journaling pieces

to soften the "whiteness" of the colonial white cardstock.

Now let's visit MARTHA'S BLOG to see what she created.

September Stamp of the Month Team Blog Hop

And welcome from Gretchen's blog

It's time for the Stamp of the Month blog hop

X5770 Glacier cardstock

1388 Colonial White cardstock

Z2101 Autumn Terracotta stamp pad

Z2641 Glacier stamp pad

Z2137 Olive stamp pad

Z2111 Chocolate stamp pad

Z1151 3-D Foam Tape

Z2060 Thin 3-D Foam Tape

Z1816 Durables Artisan Studs

pattern: Reflections Bottom Border - Four In A Row

pattern: Reflections Sidebar Understated

I used our new Thin 3-D Foam Tape, as well as the regular 3-D Foam Tape under my fussy cut leaves. LOVE IT! I don't know if you can tell from the photo, but it really gives the tree leaves a neat multi-dimensional look! I also think the thin tape will be great for mailed cards, so that the "pop" is still there, but the height is reduced.
