Love Those Pretty Papers September 2026 Challenge

Hello Dear Friends

It's a new month and that means it's time for a new challenge over on our
LOVE THOSE PRETTY PAPERS blog.

Today, our OPTIONAL theme is

FALL FLORAL

 
Diane & I will be sharing a Themed pretty paper card as well as an Anything Goes card.

 Here's my card using today's THEME:

 

 This beautiful sunflower paper came from the gorgeous Brutus Monroe 'Sunflowersoiree' paper pack.  

  

 And then for the sentiment I did something I haven't done in years ... wet embossing.  Don't ask me why ... I have a ton of various embossing powders in every color but guess I just don't think to do it.  But I did today and I've used an old Inkadinkado Happy Birthday stamp and PK Glitz 'Twilight' embossing Glitter 'Meadow'.  This was purchased at the annual Adventures in Stamping Convention held here in Akron several years ago.  Coordinating Nuvo Crystal Drops were also used as an accent.

 Now for my 2nd card (anything goes) ... 

 

 I spotted this Unity 'Autumnal Blooms' paper pack and just HAD TO HAVE IT!!

  

 For the sentiment  I used an old Stampin' Up set and an even older die set,  Labels 9 by Spellbinder.  Remember those?  LOL

Here's a peek at the inside ...

 I hope you've enjoyed what I created to inspire you today!  Please come join our fun and show us what you have created using pretty patterned papers.

Thanks for stopping by and as always . . .
