I used the  Cork 12" x 12" Specialty Paper and cut out two of the sprigs using the Harvest Dies. I think they look like wheat from the prairies here in Canada. When you drive from Alberta to Ontario you see fields of wheat lining the highway and the horizon way off in the distance. I think it's so beautiful and so different from the mountains and ocean views in Vancouver.

The Harvest Meadow Suite Collection includes everything you need to create your projects and I love when Stampin' Up! presents coordinating products I can order with one  item code (156280). You can also order the products in the suite separately. The Nature's Harvest Bundle includes the Nature's Harvest Stamp Set and Harvest Dies and when you purchase them together you save 10%

The Harvest Meadow Suite Collection includes:

• Nature's Harvest Cling Stamp Set (10% off)
• Harvest Dies (10% off)
• Harvest Meadow 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Designer Series Paper
• 3/8" (1 cm) Diamond Weave Ribbon
• Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots
• Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder
• Coordinating colors: Bumblebee, Crumb Cake, Misty Moonlight, Calypso Coral and Soft Succulent

I added a pop of Calypso Coral and embossed it with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. It's fabulous and is perfect for any cards you want to make with a vintage look. I finished off my card with the Brushed Metallic Adhesive Dots.

Here's a sneak peek of the cards included in our free PDF for all orders in September placed in our our online stores:

The Cork 12" x 12" Specialty Paper is actual cork! It's fantastic and gives a real rustic feel to your card creations. I used just a little strip of it under the Harvest Meadow 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper. 

The Patterns on the Designer Series Paper are so lovely and the colours really feel like fall. I choose the Misty Moonlight cardstock, ink and patterned paper as my focal colour today. I think the image stamped and left as a monochromatic look is beautiful. I finished off the card with the Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots and some Linen Thread. I like using something soft (like ribbon) with something hard (embellishments) on each card if I can.

The Harvest Meadow 12" x 12" Designer Series paper package includes:

• 12 sheets (2 each of 6 double-sided designs) of patterned paper
• sheets are 12" x 12
• acid and lignin free suitable for scrapbooking
• colors that coordinate with the paper: Bumblebee, Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake, Misty Moonlight and Soft Succulent

Border Buddy Saturday - Card Created Using Nature Harvest Stamp Set

Love the sentiment that I used in this card today from the Nature Harvest Stamp Set, Sending healing thoughts may nature's beauty bring peace to your soul.  I can think of a couple of people who could use this card this week. 

Every Saturday my Border Buddy Alison and I (Patsy Waggoner, US) share a card made using products in our selected suite for the month.   This month we selected the Harvest Meadow Suite.  We each created 3 cards using products from the suite for the monthly PDF, that we give to anyone who places and order at our online stores as a Thank You! 

HAND STAMPED CARD FEATURED IN OUR PDF TUTORIAL

This is one of the hand stamped cards featured in our monthly Border Buddy PDF Tutorial that we give as a Thank You to anyone who places and order at our online store.  This month we are featuring the Harvest Meadow Suite. 

The embossing was done with the Timeworn Type Embossing Folder and the Stampin' Up! Cut & Emboss Machine.  I love the texture along with the font giving it a unique look. 

AWESOME CARD SENTIMENT

The flower and sentiment were cut out using the machine and the Harvest Dies.  These dies can be cut with the original die cutting machine but they will also work in the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Mini.  

As many of you know I always like to add an embellishment to finish off the card, I used the Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots.  The stamp set, dies, embossing folder, and embellishments are all part of the Suite. 

HARVEST MEADOW SUITE COLLECTION

The stamp set, dies, embossing folder and embellishments are all part of the Nature's Harvest Suite, along with the Diamond Weave Ribbon, Cork Specialty Paper and the Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper.  Stampin' Up! make it easy to order all the items in the Suite with one easy number.

When you buy the collection #156280 or the bundle #156813 (Natures Harvest stamp set & Harvest dies) you get 10% of the stamp set and dies. 

The color palette for today card is Crumb Cake, Misty Moonlight, Soft Succulent and Basic White.

The Cork 12" x 12" Specialty Paper is actual cork! It's fantastic and gives a real rustic feel to your card creations. In my card today I used it to create this frame by nesting two of the Rectangle Stitched Dies together and running them through my Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine together. The background on the Highland Heather layer is embossed with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder, another product in the suite.

This month Alison and I are sharing the Penguin Place Bundle in our Border Buddy PDF Tutorial.  We love sending this tutorial to anyone who places an order at our online stores.  

This is one of the 6 cards featured in this month's tutorial. I created the igloo by cutting out the largest circle from the Laying Circles Dies using my Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine and the embossing it with the Brick and Mortar 3D Embossing Folder.  

The penguins having fun in the snow is from the Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper that is one of the exclusive Sale-A-Brations items.

All the penguins in this sheet of designer paper can be punched out with the Penguin Builder Punch which is part of the bundle, this is one of the double sided sheets in the Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper.   

The little penguin standing by the igloo is one that I punched out  The hat and scarf are stamped using the stamp set and cut out using the paper snips.  The paper snips precision-ground stainless steel tips cut cleanly all the way to the end of the blades, making it easy for even the hand cutting challenged (like myself).

The Color Palette for today's card...

I really love how the embossing folder creates such a crisp image.  While I don't live where there are penguins we do live where we get plenty of snow.  

No penguins or snow where you live?  No worries, these little guys can be stamped to create fun cards for other times and season!
