Today I am sharing a card I made with the Warm Hugs stamp set.  I always include a card with customer orders as a thank you, and for my Christmas In July class orders I chose to use the Warm Hugs stamp set.  A card shared by Brian King served as my inspiration, and I chose fall colors to complete my card.  I adopted his choice to make a card the size of Stampin’ Up!’s 5″ x 3-1/2″ note cards.  This size enabled me to make two cards out of one sheet of the Plaid Tidings 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, with some nice scraps leftover to use on other projects.

The Warm Hugs stamp set is part of the Heartwarming Hugs Suite of products, #155106, found on page 9 of the Stampin’ Up! August-December  Mini Catalog.  Everything you see on Page 9 is included when you purchase the Suite!  Warm Hugs is also available as a bundle with the Warm Wraps Dies, #155145.  Buying the set as a bundle saves you 10% over buying the stamp set and dies separately.

This is obviously a fall-themed card – I just couldn’t help myself.  Fall is about a month and a half away, but it is my favorite season.  I just love the rich colors and the cool, crisp air.  What is your favorite season?
