A pretty patchwork card using a clear stamp set from Craftwork Cards.
Close Up:-White 6"x6" Card
Brown is very much the colour this Autumn/Winter so I have used brown ink and pale turquoise to co-ordinate.
Die-cut a piece of brown card slightly smaller than the main card using a square stitched die-set. Add to the main card. I stamped out the small hexagons onto white card mixing the two ink colours and then embossed them with clear embossing powder. Leave enough room to be able to put your greetings in between as in the picture. Die-cut this stamped image again with a square stitched die, slightly smaller than the brown square. Add a cross stitched edge around this white square and attach to the main card. Stamp out two more hexagons, cut out and attach with foam to the card. Stamp buttons and crosses in some of the hexagons. Add two cross stitches to the four corners of the main card as in the picture with brown ink.
Craft Items Used:-

A nice pastel coloured card for a 'Thinking of you' card.
Just got a last card in before the end of September, 'With Love'. A tall slim Kraft card 21cm x 7.5cm.
Close up:-
Cut a piece of the crimson scrapbook paper to fit the main card leaving a small border edge of the kraft card. Die-cut the ribbon die twice, in a contrasting paper and join together so that it fits down the centre of the card. Thread a slim piece of the crimson spotty paper through the ribbon slits. Add this to the centre of the card. Punch out three envelopes, one in the spotty paper and two in the contrasting paper. Make up the envelopes leaving them open as in the picture. Attach to the card on foam. Add a greeting to the centre envelope and foliage to the top and bottom envelopes. Tie a bow with button thread and add to the envelopes with a button in the centre envelope. Run a running stitch with a white liner pen around the spotty envelope and a contrasting pen on the contrasting envelopes and finish with a stitch around the main card with the white liner pen.

Good Afternoon
Another year older is a card I have designed using the lovely scrapbook papers from Photoplay Autumn collection.
Close up:-A5 White Card used.Good Morning
I have designed a card with Autumn in mind although we aren't quite there yet. It was the colours from the VersaMagic Ink range that gave me the idea. VersaMagic Pumpkin Spice, Tea Leaves, Perfect Plumeria and Gingerbread, they made the ideal leaf card.
Close up:-
Die-cut a mixture of leaves in different shapes and sizes and coloured them using the VersaMagic ink pads and then embossed them with clear embossing powder. Die-cut a circle shape approx.8.5cm across, colour with the green ink and emboss with the clear embossing folder and then attach to the centre of the card. Die-cut two scalloped circles, one 5cm across (colour with green ink and emboss with the clear powder) and one 3.3cm approx. for the greeting. Thread white string through the smallest of the scalloped circles. Attach both these to the centre of the card. Attach the leaves around the circle die as in the picture. Stitch around the outer card using a fine liner pen, then stamp small leaves and acorns in the gaps around the main leaves.

Good Afternoon,
Time for tea....I have designed a card so you can invite someone, a friend or relative for a cup of tea and a chat.
Close up:-I used a tall slim Kraft coloured card 19.5cm x 10.5cm.
Cut a piece of patterned paper slightly smaller than the main card so as to leave a smaller border edge. Attach to the card. I used Stamperia Herbarium papers as it had a Tea theme. Make a small pocket in matching papers 9cm x 8cm, finished and add to the bottom of the card. Remember to leave the top open to put the teabag in. Add a border strip 10.5cm x 1.5cm in the Kraft card to cover the bottom of the pocket. Add a border strip in matching papers on top of the Kraft card. Die cut another Zig Zag border strip and attach to the top of the card. Tie a piece of button thread twice round the length of the card and finish with a bow. Add the greetings and the teabag.

I have designed a 'Thank you' card using a tag die-set from Little B Designs.
Die-cut the largest tag shape from the set. I cut two with Kraft card stock. Cover the front of the tag with coloured card leaving a small border edge. Cut a strip of white card 15cm x 6cm and using a border punch on one of the smaller edges. Die cut a greeting (Thank You) and stick down in the centre of the white card. Die cut two Oval dies to form a frame and stick over the greeting. Die cut a second Oval, the larger of the two sizes and use as a mask over the greeting. Stamp all around the Oval using the Daisy stamp, leaves and butterflies, in different coloured inks to co ordinate with the backing paper. Attach the white stamped card across the centre of the tag. Tie the tag together using Button thread and finish off with Liquid Pearls in the centre of the flowers.
