Stampers Club - October 2020 - Featured Artist: Elaine Williams

Our October Featured Artist for the 2020-2021 Stampers Club is Elaine Williams.  Elaine used all the supplies that I gave her which included Very Vanilla, Blackberry Bliss, Cajun Craze cardstock, Magic in This Night DSPOrnate Garden Ribbon Combo Pack – Terracotta Tile ribbon and Champagne Rhinestones Basic jewels. She used the Country Home stamp set to make this lovey fall themed card.  Thanks Elaine for sharing your creativity! 














I decided to use the Very Versaille stamp set after having received a card from my Secret Sister.  I hadn't purchased the set until I received the card, but I'm so happy that I did due to the versatility of the stamps.  Depending on the color ink and paper you use it can be used for any season.  A great addition to your stamp collection for sure!

Base card:  Blackberry Bliss 8 ½ x 5 ½ scored at 4¼ 
First panel:  Very Vanilla: 4 x 5¼
Scraps: Very Vanilla and Blackberry Bliss
Stamps: Very Versailles (AC pg. 114), Country Home (AC pg. 89), Gather Together (MC pg. 47)
Dies:  Ornate Frames (AC page 182)
Misc:  Linen thread, Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels

  • Stamp background words with Cinnamon Cider ink on Very Vanilla panel as in sample below.
  • Stamp leaves with Blackberry Bliss ink as in sample below.
  • Stamp Happy Harvest Blessings on scrap of Very Vanilla with Blackberry Bliss ink.  Die cut with the die from the Ornate Frames die. (TIP:  I used the leftover piece of paper after cutting the Very Vanilla panel for the card front. This piece is smaller than the width of the die but that's okay as I only wanted the short ends to be cut. I then centered the stamped sentiment strip onto the scrap of Blackberry Bliss and cut them both at the same time.)
  • Wrap the linen thread around the Very Vanilla panel twice and knot in front.  Adhere the panel to the base card.
  • Adhere the sentiment with Dimensionals.
  • Add Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels where desired.
