Happy Harvest Collection Inspiration with Caly Person

Hi, Friends! This is Caly Person and I’m excited to share some projects featuring Nichol Spohr’s Happy  Harvest Collection! I used a combination of products on each card because they work so cohesively as a collection. I used the Fall Greetings stamp set for all three of my cards today.

Scare a Crow

My first card features the Scare a Crow die set. I die-cut all the pieces except for the eyes and nose using colored cardstock and colored the pieces to add shading using Copic markers. I also used the pumpkins from the Welcome Fall and Wagon Full of Fall die sets.

I pieced all the colored images together before building my scene. My background is ink-blended with Distress Oxide Inks using Gathered Twigs, Mowed Lawn, Bundled Sage, Scattered Straw, and Tattered Rose.

After filling my scene with all of the die-cut images, I stamped my sentiment using a crisp black ink and added white gel details on my scarecrow.

Welcome Fall

The Welcome Fall set features all images encompassing fall – a barrel of apples, fall leaves and pumpkins! Again, I die-cut all the images using colored cardstock and colored them with Copic markers to add depth.

I used the Geometric Floral Glimmer Hot Foil Plate & Die Set to foil the frame before ink-blending it with Crushed Olive Distress Oxide ink at the bottom right-hand corner to add color to the background.  I finished by adding all my die-cut images to create my fall scene.

Wagon Full of Fall

My last card features the Wagon Full of Fall set.  Once again, I die-cut all the images from colored cardstock. To keep it all cohesive, I used similar colors on all the pumpkins and apples.

My background on this one is created by ink-blending Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide Ink for the ground and Broken China Distress Oxide Ink for the sky.  After attaching my wagon, I added all the accessory die-cut images.  I finished by stamping my sentiment from the Fall Greetings set using a crisp black ink.

What a great job – your project set is eye catching and certainly showcases these dies to perfection!

MaryH,

Love what you did with these dies. They’re really cute and your cards reflected how nice they are. I do have the scarecrow but now think I need the wagon. Oh, woe is me!
