Autumn Wishes + Blog Giveaway


Hey there! I hope you've had a great week! To end it off, I'd like to share this autumn card. I used patterned paper, which I am super proud of since I usually ignore my stash! I wanted to create a fall card since it's finally starting to feel like autumn in the DC area. We have had a few weeks where it was unseasonably warm, but I'm not complaining because I really enjoy warm weather! But, I also like to switch up my wardrobe and I was getting sick of those tanks or dressing for a cool morning and a hot afternoon! I think it's finally time to switch my drawers - from my summer to my winter fashion collection (haha collection)!


I stamped the sentiment in a deep red ink about 3 times, then overlayed the same sentiment with a brown ink. Yep, then stitched right over that "S!" :)


I die cut two pinking circles with a circle die cut in the center, then I cut it to create an opening and accordion folded it and attached the second one and somehow flipped it to create a double "wreath."


I used a Pink Paislee artisan element and inked it with chalk and dye inks to highlight the embossed detail.

Instructions
  1. Trim patterned paper to .25" x 4".
  2. Die cut pinking circles and create accordion wreath. Adhere to patterned paper center.
  3. Trim spray and adhere to center of accordion wreath.
  4. Trim twill tape and adhere to card front.
  5. Ink artisan element and adhere to card front.
  6. Stamp sentiment.
  7. Adhere patterned paper to card front and add stitching

Is this question about crafting, or life? For crafting, I think I'm a bit of both. If I don't have a lot of time, I'll stay in my comfort zone. Otherwise, I like to experiment. In life, I really love to try new things. Especially new foods!

Nadine said...

Fabulous card Ashley! The colors are just so rich and gorgeous. And LOVE that wreath - so clever to use the pinking circles!

Thank you for the chance to win your blog giveaway. As for your question, I love to try new things!! Cardmaking lets me explore different styles and new techniques that I normally wouldn't in my everyday world. I never feel that I have to stick to one style!

Amy said...

Beautiful! Love that card! I love trying new things! Always looking for new techniques to try! Thanks for the chance to win!

Keva said...

Oh, anyone who knows me wil tell you that I TOTALLY stay in my comfort zone in almost everything I do! I eat at the same places and get the same dishes. Shop at the same stores and wear the same types of clothes. I love it but most of my family thinks its nuts! I'vetried to come out of it for crafting, but so far not so much luck with that one!

Handmade Creations by Stephanie said...

gorgeous card as always!!! I love to try new things that's probably why I really don't have one style.Thanks for the chance to win!!!

Ruth S, justsomestuffimade.com said...

Great card inspiration Ashley! I'm always on the lookout for ideas that suit this time of year as I have so many birthdays to think of in the run up to Christmas.
And thanks for the giveaway too - I love to try new things, mixing up styles and stepping away from the looks I personally prefer, so that I can make things in the style of the recipient. It's the perfect chance to try new techniques too!
Thanks again for the chance; hope I'm lucky!

Inna said...

Hi Ashley,

I love trying new things :)

Marge said...

What a beautiful card Ashley!! Loved the rich colors and the center element is so gorgeous!!

Thanks for a chance at the giveaway!! I would say I start off being (A) Staying my comfort zone and then after a while I get bored and I move to (B) trying new things :D

So beautiful card, Ashley!

I love to try new things. New stuff, new techniques, new challenge, everything new.
Thank you for a chance.

Karen said...

Hi Ashley! Beautiful card! I just love how your cards always amaze and inspire me, your creativity is off the charts.
I like to try new things but find that I often stick to my comfort zone. I'd like to be more daring but when I find something that works I tend to stick with it.

Jean Martin said...

Wow what a great prize! For me it's both. I usually tend to stay in my comfort zone but once in a while I like to try something new. It's a fun challenge. Thanks for the chance to win!

papertrails leaver said...

Wow! Stunning card you are featuring today! I love the inking you did to get the final effect! I have to say you are inspiring me to try more techniques which is always good since I have the products available to use. Thank you! I will be happy to get out of comofort zone and try a new thing!

andie said...

well, i always WANT to try something new...but I'm more of the stay in your comfort zone kind of person!

beautiful card! love the colors! xoxo andie librandi...

a_la_une said...

Hi, Ashley!
:) wonderful works
I prefer a variant B

Shawna said...

Another gorgeous card!!! TFS. As for my comfort zone, I tend to stay within it and is something I need to break free of.

Tanya said...

Beautiful card Ashely!! I love trying new things. I get inspiration from different places, and just want to do it all. I guess like with cooking, I want to try making everything, while hubby is content with steak, pizza, and burgers, he gets upset with new dishes, lol!

Robbie said...

LOVE your card...so beautiful! I don't know where I would fit in on your question. Guess I like to do my own thing on every card I make. Think I prefer challenging layouts as opposed to doing too much different. Thanks for the opportunity to win some blog candy. I look forward each day to visiting your blog.

Unknown said...

I love to try new things! That's why I love blogs like yours...I'll see something innovative and it inspires me to give it a try!

Traveling Trader said...

Beautiful card! I love my comfort zone, I guess that is why they use the word comfort. However as I age I realize how important it is to have new experience and try different things so I do some of both depending on my mood.

Rose Curtis said...

Your card is Gorgeous! I like to try new things... and I like vintage too!

Unknown said...

I have always loved learning new things and so do so you have to try new techniques. With that said the comfort zone is always there when I'm not feeling adventurous.

Lorie a.k.a.The Peddler said...

I love your card. This is absolutely stunning. I have to admit, I like to step outside my comfort zone and try new things. Thanks for the inspiration.

Kristin said...

Love, love, LOVE your card! You're right the patterned paper is fantastic! I really love to go outside my comfort zone, I've had MANY disasters with it, but so many successes too! Thanks for the opportunity - I always look forward to your daily inspiration!

Barbara said...

i definitely like to try new things ...otherwise I get bored. the difficult thing is finding that xrta time to master a new technique - Thats why I love your blog.... you always have the how toos -Thank you

sandysewin said...

Nice card today, I especially like the circle element.

I tend to go back and forth between comfort zone and getting wildly creative. Sometimes my brain needs a rest, so I do comfort zone things. Then I get bored with that and I'm off again, gettin' crazy.

Thanks for the chance to win!

Els said...

I'm more of a person who tends to stay in my comfort zone, but I try to challenge myself as much as possible to try new things. Thanks for this wonderful opportunity to win!! Such a generous price package!!

Lindsay said...

This card is so lovely Ashley! So much fall goodness on it! I am a little of both, some days I stay in my comfort zone and other days I like to try new things. Thanks for the chance to win!

Emily said...

Definitely B. Your card is so pretty, I love fall.

Ravengirl said...

Wow, love your card today and it's rich, rich fall colors! I am all about staying in my comfort zone :)

I love to try new things!!

Anonymous said...

I love to try new things... however I often find myself staying in my comfort zone. I guess it just depends on what it is regarding. LoL... Hope that made sense.
Thanks for another fun opportunity to win! :)

Brook said...

Love your card. I like to stay in my comfort zone for the most part, just b/c for me trying new things takes a lot of time. But every now and then I get the urge to try something new (and I usually spend a whole day getting through it). Thanks for the chance to win.

Buddha said...

I'm always up for new thing - can resist what is hot and give it a try.

Erica said...

Another masterpiece...very very pretty!

Do I like to stay in comofort zone or try new?

IN life: comfort zone all the way
IN crafting: try something new!!

Vani said...

Beautiful card Ashley. Love it!
Thanks for the awesome give away. I like to try new things, esp when its crafting.

Thanks,
Vani

connie said...

beautiful card. I love to try new things in my crafting but in life I tend to stay in my comfort zone on most things.

Angel Hawks said...

I love this card. I have to get me some Pink Paisley elements. Super Cool! I love trying new things. Thanks for the inspiration.

Lillian Child said...

Just beautiful, Ashley! If I had stayed in my comfort zone when I started on my papercrafting hobby, I would still be using stickers on my cards. We've come a LONG way baby!!

Lee Anne said...

Beautiful card today Ashley! I love the colors and the texture.

I have a wishy-washy answer for you. When my crafting time is limited (which is almost always) I stick to my comfort zone so I can get more accomplished. When I have a bit more time, I love to try new things - materials, techniques!

Audrey said...

Well to answer your question. I am very happy in my comfort zone as my style is clean and simple, but know it would be a good thing to step out of my comfort zone and experiment new things. I am trying to attempt to do that with a very amount of success LOL
God Bless!
Love your work very inspiring!

Meda said...

Again a hard one. Let's say I like to step just a little bit out of my comfort zone, but not too much. I hate ruined cards, I don't like certain color combos so I don't venture further than my heart says I can go.

shari said...

What a pretty card! I like to try new things, but I usually stay in my comfort zone. HA Thanks for the chance to win this great gift. Shari (cricutrookie)

Laurel Beard said...

What a terrific giveaway. I like to try new techniques but stay within the comforts of my clean and simple design style. I find when I go completely outside of what I like, it looks awful! :)

Goral said...

I love to try new things and they usually work out pretty good.

Kayla said...

I love trying new things, i feel like saying in the comfort zone is a kind of "cheating" ;)

gberry14 said...

Your cards are elegant and so stylish. Love this beauty! I love to try new things and that is what I love about this card making hobby, there is always something new and the possiblities are unlimited!-Leesa Berry

Anne B said...

What a great giveaway. Confesssion time - I prefer to stay in mmy comfort zone though I am trying to be more adventurous. Maybe I should make it one of my 2011 resolutions :)

Colleen C. said...

I like to try new things and my budget is usually blown because of that. If there is a new technique or product that catches my eye, I have to go out and purchase all the supplies and/or the new product to try it out. Your card on this post is beautiful and I love all the inspiration you provide. Thank you!

Natalie Winterstein said...

Mmm, the fall card is gorgeous! I love to try new things because even if it doesn't work out the way I want the first time it stretches me creativly and I usually learn what to do differently the next time! Thanks for the chance to win. :)

Stephanie said...

beautiful card- as usual!
I like to try new things!
thanks for the amazing giveaway :)

Kimba's Kreations said...

In BOTH Life and in Crafting I like to try NEW THINGS. I want to try and stretch my creativity as much as I can and be well-rounded.
GREAT QUESTION and THANKS for the chance to win!

Helen F. said...

What a gorgeous Fall card, Ashley! The colors are rich and vibrant just like the Maple tree leaves.
I mostly stay in my Comfort zone when in a hurry to get a card done, but love the blog challenges that push me outside :o)

Marionment said...

Love your card. I think of myself as an adventurous person and I always like to try new things.

Wendy said...

What a great question! I'm definitely all for trying new things. I tend to (try to) create cards that I like the look of rather than focusing on a particular look or style. Right now my fave style is vintage, but a few weeks ago it was clean and simple. Change is good!

Anonymous said...

I'm very fond of my comfort zone, but try to push outside of it sometimes to change things up, keep things interesting, stretch myself creatively.

Scrapycandy said...

I love to try new things and I always learn something on your blog. I really think you need to frame that card..wow! Thank you.

Unknown said...

I like to stay in my comfort zone, but try to push myself as well - I split my time between comfort zone/trying new things! Love your card & blog!

Tracey said...

I definitely LOVE to try new things...that is why I love the Embellish challenges so much :)

Jessica said...

Your card is beautiful. You do such elegant cards.
In regards to my comfort zone, in life I like my comfort zone. In scrapbooking and card making I like to try new things. I guess that's why I follow your blog and others, to get new ideas and new techniques to try. Thanks for offering the blog candy.

Charmane said...

Your card is beautiful and elegant. TFS. I definitely like to stay in my comfort zone but occasionally I will try new things.

Tracy said...

Oh what a pretty card in such gorgeous fall tones. I like blogging so much because I can learn new things and step out of my box (or rut, as I call it!).

csmiley1999 said...

Ashley love the card. I love to try new things which allows my own creativity to fly. I have gotten such inspiration from the blogs and classes that I take.

Anonymous said...

what an amazing card, I love the colors and the pattern.

I love to try new things, I love to play with everything!

Unknown said...

Ashley, I love your card. That color combo is among my faves!

As for cardmaking, I love trying new things, especially after seeing techniques demonstrated by designers. I don't always execute my 'intended design' very well, and sometimes feel bad for 'wasting' pretty papers, embellies, but it's all part of the learning process!

Thanks for the chance to win. God bless...

Meghan said...

I think I prefer to stay in my comfort zone but actually enjoy trying new things so I can find a new comfort zone. Great giveaway...thanks!

Karen said...

I love trying new things but find myself often going back to those old familiar things.

Anonymous said...

I like to TRY new things, but then I usually fall back to making things in my comfort zone/comfort style. I like to keep it simple. Thanks for your gorgeous cards! ;)

cinmfoster said...

Love your card. I like to do both. I like to new learn new things, but am slow to incorporate them in my stamping and scrapbooking until I get the technique down.

Anonymous said...

That is one stunning card...I love the rich autumn colors and the embellie a lot!
I am a total comfort zone girl, but I am slowly working on trying new things whether in crafting or personal style.

Margaret said...

Beautiful card! I tend to keep to my comfort zone. I'm not brave enough yet to try new things. Although I love seeing new techniques and have booked marked several of them in hopes of one day trying them.

connys blog said...

Hallo Ashley,
your creations are breathtaking. Your todays card is another masterpiece. Love your creations and ideas.
Thanks to get the chance for your great blog-giveaway.
I prefer making cards in my "comfort zone" but from time to time I try new techniques.

Iliana Garza said...

Thanks for the chance at a giveaway. I like to stay in my comfort zone if I am limited on supplies. If I have extra supplies then I will try new things only if I can watch a demo.

Luana said...

I feel MOST comfortable in my zone, it keeps productivity high. However, every now and then I'll "venture out"... but then it's right back to my zone. BTW, your card is gorgeous!!!

MeMe said...

Although my comfort zone feels so safe, new things are fun to learn.

I am one to stay in my comfort zone for the most part, but I do like to try new things (I am always up for a little challenge). I love music note paper. I patterned paper that I just have no idea what to with it, this card inspires me to just give it a chance and see what I can use it for!

I love that card, looks beautiful! I like to try new things... not really coming up with new things on my own, but trying new things that I see.

Cristina said...

I think I'm guilty of mostly staying in my comfort zone, but because it's so comfortable, it can sometimes get boring, too, and when it does, I try to venture out.

Beautiful card! Love the stitching snafu. That's how you know it's handmade!

Anonymous said...

Ashley, your card is gorgeous! This is fabulous blog candy too, but then again, your blog is fabulous! I have to say that I like to try new things. I like trying new things in all aspects of my life, crafting, food, meeting people, etc. New is good! Thanks for the chance to win.

Sheila H said...

Your card is beautiful; the colors are fantastic! As for me, I pretty much like to try new things. I get a lot of inspiration from blogs that display new and different techniques from those that I know. Thanks for the chance to win - and I hope you have a great weekend also.

I think it depends on what it is but in card making I like to try new things. I just recently tried tissue stamping. I have tried several new techniques lately and loving it. Thanks for this opportunity to win your blog giveaway.

Barb said...

Your card is just beautiful, Ashley. I love the rich Autumn colors.

I love to try new things! Thank you for the opportunity to win!

Charmaine said...

Love the colors you chose...I love fall colors!

It really depends on the mood I am in whether I stick to my comfort zone or try new things. In crafting, I definitely try new things. In real life, I tend to stick to my comfort zone...unless I'm feeling adventurous :)

cheepincharge said...

Beautiful fall-inspired card!

I like to try new things (B)...as long as they don't take me too far out of my comfort zone (A)!

Julie Cefalu said...

I'm so new to paper crafting that everything I'm doing is new and out of my comfort zone! I love your fall card and thanks for the nice instructions.

Tiffany Pastor said...

Hey Ashley!
As always I LOVE YOUR CARD! Fall is my absolutely favorite season of the year! I think that in a lot of things I like to stay in my comfort zone, but with cardmaking and creative stuff I love to branch out! I love trying new styles and using new color combinations!

thanks for the chance to win! You are such an inspiration!

Unknown said...

Hmmm, I would have to day that I like to try n new things, like tools, products, and techniques but I am pretty much dead set on my style. I guess it's a good thing to really know your style.

Tammie Koehnen said...

I like to try new things! There are so many new and exciting things to try and combine in stamping/cardmaking. Thanks for the chance to win & I love your blog. :)

Anita said...

I think I do a little of both depending on my mood - feeling a bit adventurous and don't mind spending a couple of hours on one card, then I'll try new things. When I need to get a bunch of cards done then I stick with the things I know!

Thanks for the opportunity to play and for the inspiration you provide.

Angie Smith said...

I definitely love to try new things......and color outside the box!!!!!

I love to try new things when I have time. I don't really knowwhat my comfort zone is, but if I don't have a lot of time I will go with what I alreay know.

Maureen said...

I'm a little bit of both...like the tried and true but love seeing new product and techniques...just hard to keep up with it all as a hobbiest and not a designer.

Tereza Crump said...

I love Fall colors: yellow, oranges, reds... they go hand in hand with Summer - my favorite season!!!

when I have time to play I loooove to try new things, but when I am short on time then I stay in my comfort zone. :) I wish I had more free time.

Jen Carter said...

Beautiful card!! It's just lovely!

I like to try new things. I like trying all the new products on the market and integrating them into my projects. Now when it comes to style, I don't venture too far from that. :)

Kristie Maynard said...

I love to try new things and try to craft outside my comfort zone. That is one of the reasons I love checking out your blog, I always find some wonderful ideas to try here. Thanks for the inspiration and the chance to win this great give away.

Wowza! This card is stunning! I love all the warmth and texture!! In creating, I love trying new things. In the rest of my life, I like to stay in my comfort zone! ha!

Janet L. said...

I've found that in making cards, I really, really like to try new techniques, tools, and things I've not done before. Sometimes they work out lovely and sometimes they're a fizzle, but I like trying anyway. I really like the card you made and have been closely examining it! Thanks for sharing your talents and inspirations!

Tiffany Heilman said...

Love that card!

I would love to say I try new things, but I almost always stick to my comfort zone in my crafting world.

I am also a follower. Thanks for the chance to win.
