Just Because - Gathering Together - AHSC 699

Hello! I know it is not officially fall yet, but once school is back in, it feels like fall to me, and so the fall colours have been calling me. I wanted to play with my new Hot Foil system from Stampin Up!, and this was perfect, as one of the hot foil dies I bought was the Lusturious Leaves Hot Foil Die bundle. The bundle includes the hot foil die, the die cut (they are different), and stencils for easy colouring.

I hope to do a video soon on my Facebook introducing the hot foil system. But until then, here is my card for this weeks AHSC.

Pool Day - August 2026 KOTM

Hello!

Hi There - AHSC 695

Hello! Happy Monday to you! I am back with this week's sketch challenge from the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.

I created this when I had a few minutes but not enough time to start a layout or work on anything that would have required a larger time commitment, as I was waiting to leave for an appointment. I had this paper pack on my desk because I had just finished the scrapbook workshop. I pulled up a sketch and used whatever leftovers I had, and this is what I came up with. 

Of course, having a sketch to start with definitely helps the creative process; it narrows down options. Having something easy to create was just what I needed; I wanted to be creative, but I did not have a lot of time and mental energy if I am being honest. With two off to college in a few weeks, I am juggling so many things but needed some creative therapy! 

Products Used: (all products Stampin’ Up! unless otherwise noted)

 

Paper:

- 167467 Homemade Sweetness

Stamps:

- 165471 More Messages

 

Ink:

- Tuxedo Black Memento

 

Die Cuts:

Embellishments:
