Acorny Thank You for Mojo Monday Challenge

Ahhh… as some of you saw over on my Northwest Stamper Facebook page this week, I finally got in some crafty time just for me and for fun! My mom came to visit and we had an awesome time stamping! I didn’t know where to start so I decided to find a sketch challenge to play along with and grabbed my new favorite set – Acorny Thank You

Isn’t it fun?! This was the mojo monday sketch that I was playing along with:

Tips for making this card

Pick a pack of your favorite papers and mix and match your patterns for a combination of papers that you KNOW will look great! In this case, I used the Farmer’s Market designer paper… don’t you just LOVE this white washed fence pattern?
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this Acorn stamp set and punch. I saw it in the catalog and thought – “would I really use an acorn stamp set? isn’t that a little weird?” Turns out that it is really cute and lots of fun, so while I thought the answer was no – turns out it is YES! It is just the right touch of whimsy or elegant fall when you need it.
Oh and if you get the stamp set… you totally need to get the Acorny Thank You Bundle. Not only do you save 15% off both the stamp AND the punch, but then you can mix and match cute stamped parts of the acorns but you can add in cardstock.
I knew I just had to bust out this fun new corrugated cardstock for this project too. Look how great it looks as an acorn base. Plus, it comes in a pack of 2 12×12 sheets of the corrugated cardstock in Kraft and 2 sheets in White so you can have even more color combinations.

So, you’ll be seeing more from me with this set, so I hope you like it as much as I do. 🙂 Perfect for playing in the fall and beyond. (I totally see one of those mushrooms from the video game Super Mario Brothers coming out of this set too!)
