Inkspirational Challenge #327 - Seasonal

 Just in time for all of the seasons coming up (Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Fall, Winter!)  the newest challenge over at Inkspirational is Seasonal!

Since my Halloween cards are all made - I moved on to Thanksgiving/Fall for my SEASONAL design!


I have purchased MANY of the Postage Collage stencil sets from Waffle Flower and I'm making myself get them out and use them!   I try to stencil at least 5 or 6 panels at a time since I have all of the inks out!  Sometimes I use the full panel and sometimes I cut them out and use 3 or 4 sections on a card.

For this card I used the Postage Collage Die and The Postage Collage Fall Stencil set.  I colored in the sky around the Lady Bug with a light blue Copic and added blue enamel dots from Altenew.

The mini strip sentiment and mini strip die are from Taylored Expressions.

So what season do you need to make a card for right now?  Please join us and link up your card over at Inkspirational!

The challenge ends Nov 1.

Darling fall postage stamp card, Julia! Great idea to make multiple panels - I used my Halloween postage stencils twice but days apart, duh...

Julia, the last two weeks have just flown (frantically making Halloween cards for the Halloween Countdown series for my niece and nephew), so apologies for being late with my comments.
I'm with you on the postage collage collection: I have 'nearly' everything and I love it alllll! Your autumn themed version is ever so pretty; love the arrangement and the polka dot background is a wonderful stage!
