Stampin Friends August Hop Fall Theme

Welcome to the Creatin' With Kirsteen stop on the August Stampin Friends Blog Hop!

This month we are highlighting Fall themed projects.

Weren't Maureen's projects awesome? You can navigate back to her blog, or forward to Barbara's...by clicking on the previous or next name at the bottom of this post 
(you are at #1).

Living in Houston, we have no 'Fall' as such. We can have cool days but not what most folk think of as Fall. Trying to get into a Fall frame of mind when the weather is almost 100F most days was pretty difficult...so my fall themed projects have a little more of a contemporary look rather than the traditional colours. I haven't crafted much these past several months - but I had a LOT of fun creating these projects!


Don't you LOVE the colours in the Nature's Poem Designer Paper? And the leaves! They make my heart skip a beat ;) But, I have also learned in the last year that there's no point in hoarding paper - why not use the pretty stuff? So, I used the leafy paper to make a origami box and added a little accent of it on the card so they matched.

I found some Leaves Trinkets I had forgotten I had and using the Big Shot Embossing Mats I created an embossed layer for the card that matched the single Leaf Trinket I added as an embellishment.

I found the instructions for this box on ​Paper Kawaii Website. I did adjust the paper sizes to 10 1/4" x 7 1/4" as the A4 used in the video is larger than our cardstock and I wanted to use the Blackberry Bliss for the inside of the box.
I hope you liked my projects....Thanks for stopping by.

Wow, Kirsteen! What a great idea to use the embelishment leaves as embossing tool. Gave a great look! And the dsp works perfect for a fall themed project.
Great work!

I love your projects Kirsteen. Using the leaf embellishments to make the background is genius.
