Painted Harvest for Coffee & Cards

Hello, this week we will be using a favourite stamp set of mine called Painted Harvest.  It's been around for a few years now and, I have used it a lot.  As I sit looking out of my craft room window the leaves are starting to change colour, this is my favourite time of the year - nothing beats a good swish through the leaves.  Its possible the the changing colours also influenced the colours I chose to use this week!

Daffodil Delight

Early Espresso

Pear Pizzazz

Pumpkin Pie

Every time I pull Painted Harvest off my shelf I am reminded that for some reason I have never inked up the acorn ... until now that is!  This is such a versatile stamp set - if you look on Pinterest you will see all sorts of projects using Painted Harvest.  Some clever crafters have even managed to stamp owls with these flowers!

This week we will be stamping, punching, fussy cutting, embossing and getting a little inky.

Here are the projects we will be making. How cute is that hedgehog? 

The inspiration for the second project came from an image on Pinterest with a design by Conni Richter, a German SU Demo.  Unfortunately I couldn't track the image back to her original post even with the help of Google Translate.  I'll keep looking ...

If you would like to join me for a crafty coffee this week, please send me a message to let me know so I can prepare a kit for you!

Not everyone likes shabby chic style cards - will you choose to ink the embossed panel on our first project or not I wonder?

Happy crafting!
