The Nature's Harvest stamp set and coordinating dies work beautifully with the Pretty Prints and Sun Prints patterned paper to create fall cards. Even those these are floral cards, the color palette screams late summer and fall. All the products used on these cards if from Stampin' Up!® The Harvest die set it fabulous because not only does it have dies to cut out the stamped images, it also has label dies and beautiful silhouette dies. 

During my live video tutorial on Thursday, I shared how to color the die-cut pieces with Stampin' Blends to create beautiful flowers with the look of hand painting. If you missed, you can check out the replay. 

Did you ever do sun prints on photo paper as a kid? It's a pretty cool art project. You leave objects on special photo paper and they leave white outlines on blue. The Sun Prints and Pretty Prints patterned papers are based on this photography technique. The Sun Prints paper have the traditional blues, while the Pretty Prints paper is Calypso Coral, Blackberry Bliss, Shaded Spruce, and Evening Evergreen.

​Ok, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Coloring on Die-Cuts

I used a piece of the Calypso Coral Pretty Prints patterned paper for this card. I started by die-cutting the flower and weeds from Very Vanilla cardstock. I left the weeds as they were and I love the way they mimic the leaf patterns on the paper. 

For the flower, I used Stampin' Blends alcohol markers to color the flower and add definition to the various areas. Because it isn't a stamped image, there is no harsh outline leaving it looking like a hand-painted flower.

Thank You Card Design

For this handmade thank you card, I stamped the flowers with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored with Highland Heather and Mint Macaron Stampin' Blends alcohol markers. I inked the splotch stamp with Gray Granite and stamped it on scrap paper before stamping on my project. Then, I added the sentiment in Blackberry Bliss.

I adhered the stamped image to Blackberry Bliss cardstock and added a bit of Linen Thread. Then, I used Stampin' Dimensionals to mount it on a piece of Vellum Cardstock. 

I used the dies to cut a similar flower from Rich Razzleberry and added to the Pretty Prints paper background before adhere the stamped piece.

All Occasion Card

I decided not to put any sentiment on this card making it good for any occasion or just to send a note to someone. I stamped the flowers with Basic Gray ink and colored with Petal Pink, Calypso Coral, Gray Granite, and Mint Macaron Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.

I used the Stylish Shapes dies to cut a square of the Sun Prints patterned paper. The background is Gray Granite cardstock that has been embossed with the Hive 3D embossing folder. I also added a die-cut twig in Gray Granite cardstock.

The card is finished off with a few Champagne Rhinestones that coordinate fabulously with the Calypso Coral flowers and add a little sparkle to this gray card.
