Today I’m starting the week off with the NEW Memory Box Bramble Surprise rubber stamp. As soon as I saw it, I knew I wanted it!! I love the whimsical feel of it! I decided on some Copic colorbook therapy with some Distress ink blending for the background.
I matted the image and the Distress Dot paper with the Mini Perfect Layers Tools and cutting mat… love them! Links on the right and below…
After I colored the image, I went around the perimeter of the card with Weathered Wood Distress ink first, then I added in Chipped Sapphire, then Dusty Concord and on the very edge a bit of Black Soot. Walnut Stain on the bottom.
Then I sprayed water into the palm of my hand and dropped it onto the inked part, staying away from the moon.
I shook up a bottle of White Linen Dylusions Ink Spray real good, opened it and spattered the white dots on by tapping the cap and letting the ink flick off the end of the tube.
I die cut the letters for the word ‘fall’ from the Alphabet Soup die. I put scor tape on the back of Memory Box White card-stock before I cut. The letters are really easy to adhere to the card when the tape is already on there. The drawback is, the thicknesss causes the holes in the die, (for poking out the waste) to emboss.
I layered Memory Box Violet Distress Dots Card-stock to a top fold A-2 Memory Box Kraft card base that I embossed with the Memory Box Dots Stencil.

I’m behind getting my cards posted on my blog but I will catch up soon! I wanted to share this CAS Summer card that I made for our area stamp club monthly swap. July’s theme was a Summer scene.
The sentiment is from Magnolia, rainbow is Paper Smooches, cloud border is poppystamps and the sun is an old EK Success medium size punch.

Both of these are fantastic and showcase the products so well! Wonderful inspiration!
Love the polka dots and embossed dots together.
Your cards are beautiful, I’ve wanted the bramble stamp since I first saw it, I’m hoping to win. I love the CAS rainbow card, I enjoy white space on cards, it really makes the colors pop.
Both cards are absolutely fabulous!!
Hi Pam, once again you’ve created the perfect card that looks like you spent a great deal of time on. Love the distressed edges on everything. The word Fall looks wonderful with the little “bumps” on it & the neat tip for adhering it is always appreciated. Love the rainbow card as well..
hugs, Janie
SO BEAUTIFUL………….
Love the added spiderweb in the tree branches. A really spooky night card. Loved the inlay of the rainbow too. That is so colorful & eyecatching, as was #3 with all the bright backgrounds in the cutout spaces. Well done (hey, no surprise at that!) on 3 beautiful & different cards. TFS & Hugs
