Faux Stair-step

Today I am posting a card for a SCS Challenge by Misti Monday to use one of the mini stamps that many of us have.  I have a few of the sweet mini stamp sets from Colorado Craft Company--love them!  I also made a new-to-me fun fold that my awesome demo Sarah made a few weeks ago on one of her Facebook Lives called Coffee Klatch.  It is a faux stair step card and is very easy to do.

I picked the Colorado Craft Company mini stamp set called Ice Cream Day.  I think it is so dang cute!  I colored the image with my Copic Sketch Markers.  The sweet sentiment is from the same set and I die cut it with my Taylored Expressions Double Ended Flag Stacklets.  The background papers are from Illustrated Faith and Bella Blvd--Delight in the Day--Sprinkled With Bliss!  So cute and colorful! 

 

Here is a picture from the side so you can see how it stands and looks like a stair-step card.

Here is the inside of my card with a strip of the patterned paper:

I hope you like my card.  Be sure to use those mini-stamps and try a faux stair-step card!

Last Mystery Image Swap

Today is the 18th and the due date for a Mystery Image Swap on SCS. This is my card for that swap this month.  It is a group of us who do a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same mystery image, sent to us by the hostess. This swap was created by Forest Ranger—Jeanette--way back in 2010.  Terry is our hostess this month and sent everyone this cute image from Altenew called Autumn Bounty. This is the 67th round for this group, but it is the last round.  It is being combined with the unidentified image swap, with a new name of Surprise Image Swap--SIS!  I have sent Terry images for the swappers and the next round will not be due until February 18th in 2022.  We will then be one combined group of 13 and will continue from there!

I think this image is so perfect for this time of year.  I colored it with my Copic Sketch Markers.  I die cut the image with a Gina Marie Designs Pierced Chain Rectangle die. The patterned paper is Illustrated Faith Seasons of Gratitude Paper Pack and is tone on tone leaves.   I added a few orange enamel dots along with linen thread as the final touch.  I did not add a sentiment so this card can be used for pretty much any fall occasion.  

Here is the inside of my card:

I hope you and all of the mystery swappers like my card.  If you check my sidebar on the left, you might see some other swappers who have posted their cards today or in the next few days.
