This week’s Color Combo is perfect for an Autumn Card. I used the Artistic Leaves Stamp Set. It’s a two-step stamp set and I stamped direct with the detailed stamp and then add a lighter shade with the other stamp by stamping off first.
The Color Combo I used is from my October Inspiration Calendar - Pumpkin Pie, Pecan Pie and Balmy Blue.

Tips & Instructions
Pecan Pie Card Base - 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, score at 4-1/4
Basic White Layer - 4 x 5-1/4
Balmy Blue Layer - 3-7/8 x 5-1/8, emboss using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder. Adhere to the white layer and then to the card base.
Stamp 3 large leaves and 3 small leaves on Basic White Cardstock and fussy cut. I stamped the large leaves in Pumpkin Pie Ink and the small leaves in Pecan Pie Ink. For the large leaves, stamp the detailed image direct and then stamp the other image but stamp off on scrap paper first to get a lighter shade.
Adhere the leaves to the card.
Stamp the sentiment on a 1/2” x 4 strip of Basic White in Balmy Blue Ink. Adhere to a 5/8” x 4 strip of Pecan Pie and then adhere to the card.
Add some Earthy Tone Matte Dots. Note, these dots are new Online Exclusive products which will be available for purchase starting November 4, 2025.
On the inside layer (4 x 5-1/4), stamp sentiment in Balmy Blue Ink. Stamp the large leaf in Pumpkin Pie Ink.
I love the how pretty these leaves are against the Balmy Blue embossed layer.
