My youngest and I had a fun crafty Saturday last weekend, creating this adorable fall banner using the newest Jaded Blossom release. I must give all the credit to my wee one - she did most all of the assembly, inking, and embellishing herself! I assisted with diecutting and "getting started" steps. We've hung the banner in our kitchen window above the sink. I know she is super proud. (Affiliate links are used throughout at no additional cost to you.

Supplies used:
Mini August 2025 Stamp Release Package (still available at time of blog publishing)
Gnome Friends: Chipmunk Dies
Fall Leaves Stencil
Stitched Arch Dies
Build A Booth: Alphabet Add Ons
Canvas Paper (or Canvas fabric like this from Amazon)
Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink (for cheeks)
Tea Dye Distress Oxide Ink
Wild Honey Distress Oxide Ink
Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Ink
Below are the chipmunks before adding some rosy cheeks and adding white to eyes.
Stringing up the banners! We flipped the Stitched Arch Dies to create the banner panels and cut holes with our Crop-A-Dile. We used distress oxides to ink the Fall Leaves Stencil onto the canvas panels. It worked beautifully! My little fairy was in love with how well that worked.
The banner hung in its new home!
The Build A Booth: Alphabet Add Ons are the perfect size for the little chipmunks to hold. Super cute, eh?
We had a hard time picking our favorite critter. She wanted to put different faces on all of them, and alternated (purely by accident) chipmunks that are both sitting and standing with different arms and hand positions.
We hope you love our autumn inspiration. Hugs!
