Spellbinders September Club Kits: Charmed Season, part 2

 The September Club Kits from Spellbinders are now available, through September 27.  Today's post includes the remainder of my samples using the club kits.

The Large Dies, Acorn Acres, has 26 dies, full of lots of fall fun.  Today I made a little scene and set it against the Embossing Folder, Autumn Breeze.

supplies: colored cardstock, Acorn Acres dies (includes sentiment), Autumn Breeze embossing folder, adhesive foam

There are a group of large leaves also included in this set (you'll see them next), but I decided to put the squirrel's cottage in a grove of sunflowers this time.  The embossing folder has a decidedly diagonal design, as if the leaves are blowing.  

Next I first used 4 of the leaves from this set to make a fall quilt based on one I made years ago.  The 3D folder was perfect for adding "quilting".

supplies: Cornflower and fall colors of cardstock, Patchwork 3D embossing folder, leaves from Acorn Acres, sentiment from Autumn Whim

I used the full width of the folder, and then cut down the length to accomodate the skinny frame I used to separate the leaves from the rest of my quilt. So it measures 5 1/2" X 6 3/4".  The sentiment is perfect!

Here's a picture of my quilt.  I use it each fall as a table covering in our dining room.

I mixed the Autumn Breeze embossing folder again with the Stitching Kit next.  It's called Stitched Pumpkin Tops.

supplies: colored cardstock, Stitched Pumpkin Tops, 3 strands embroidery floss to match, Autumn Breeze embossing folder

The sentiment dies are included in the stitching kit, as are some acorn dies that I chose not to use this time.

My last card today shows you the BetterPress kit called Sketchy Hexi.

supplies: cream, brown, and orange cardstock, Sketchy Hexi betterpress plate, brown ink, copper embossing powder, copper sequins

I did a little experimentation with my pressplate this time.  First I used an embossing pad and plate to emboss the design on some cream cardstock.  The orange panel was inked the usual way with brown ink, then trimmed to fit the pattern of the cream panel.  There are 2 sentiments included in the set this month, and I inked one of them with VersaMark ink and sprinkled on some copper embossing powder, then trimmed it out with a banner die.  It's hard to read here, but the sentiment says "Sending Autumn Cheer".  To finish, I added some copper sequins to mimic the copper embossing on the sentiment.

There is also a hexi die included in this set for you to cut out any of the designs.
