Hello there! I’m back again with Papertrey Ink for our first group post featuring this month’s Monthly Moments collection. Every month, I eagerly anticipate what each Monthly Moments collection will look like. This month did not disappoint. I love the fall inspired stamp set, and the journal cards were also a big hit with the fun back to school look.
The Monthly Moments: September stamp set has four tiny little leaf images that I used along with some rock n’ roll inking to create a falling leaves background.
Fall is my favorite season. I feel like I appreciate the turning leaves more and more each year, and wish that the colors would last a little bit longer.
I used the same rock n’ roll technique for this card, and then die cut the September word die right into the card front. The stamped sentiment came from the Stylish Sentiments: Birthday set.
Make sure and see what the rest of the team created with this fun new Fall inspired collection.

These cards are gorgeous. I love the Monthly Moments sets, too.
Oh I love your stamping…the movement on the first card is absolutely amazing!
These are gorgeous Laura! I have a September birthday and I love what you did with the die cut!! 🙂
Love the card. I love the leaves and the technique you used. The leaves look so real.
Your falling leaves are so beautiful!
Really like what you did with these cards. They are very simple and elegant. I am also a September birthday and I thought they were great.
I love the rock and roll technique on these fall leaves!
Beautiful leaf flurries, Laura on these GORGEOUS cards! That is some pretty nifty stamping with the tiny images 🙂
Beautiful autumn cards!!! I love your style!
Such cute cards Laura, You are a master card maker!
Love how you made those leaves fall!
These cards are amazing! I absolutely love what you did with the tiniest stamps in the set. Sometimes those are the most overlooked and, as you’ve proved so wonderfully here, they can make the best cards! Love love love them both! 🙂

Gorgeous! I love the leaves and I’ll pretend the birthday card is for me! 😉
Oh my gosh!! These autumn leaves are LOVELY!! What ink colors did you use to create such a lovely array of fall colors?!?! And wow, that rock n’ roll technique really brings dimension and life to those leaves!!
Oh, these look amazing!
Your Sept card is so elegantly simple! I love it!
Such yummy stamping, Laura! Both cards are really beautiful! ♥
Gorgeous autumn cards, love the colors used! Gonna have to do that rock-n-roll technique more often~
Gorgeous cards! I LOVE all of those beautiful, colorful leaves!!!
What beautiful cards, I love the composition and colors!
Who knew? Who knew that itty bitty leaves would make into elegant cards. I know now. Thanks for the inspiration.
I love the way that you used those mini leaves to create such stunning cards…
Wow your leaves look great. That rock n roll technique makes them look so realistic. I also like layout of them.
Your leaves are amazing!! I need to make two September b-day cards today and I’m so inspired by yours!
As usual, your stamping is perfection, but what I really love is the movement you’ve created here. I can just see those leaves blowing in the breeze.
Love how you created your cards with the little leaves.
Outrageous! So creative and lovely. Can’t believe you did all that gorgeous stamping!
Holy wow, these are gorgeous!
Your rock n’ roll technique is perfect for the leaves, Laura! LOVE how you die cut the sentiment on the 2nd card, too…’You’ never disappoint with your gorgeous creations! Thanks so much for sharing these 2 beautiful cards with us 🙂
Wow, Laura, those falling leaves are so beautiful. Love them, but not sure I would have the patience to make this card with all those tiny leaves. Also, thank you for making comments on my MIM. It means so much to me and really made my day.
Love both of your cards! It makes me wish we experienced the changes of season down here in LA… Fall is just such a beautiful time of the year!
Gorgeous sprays of leaves, I love the rock and roll technique and the movement you get from these cards!
These are both fabulous cards, Laura. Fall colors are my favorite and the way you used them brings the season to life. Capturing the movement of falling leaves add to the overall effect.
Simply lovely!
The cards with the wind blown leaves are stunning. I can imagine how this design could be used with many things, such as butterflies, flowers, even numbers for a birthday card. Thanks for the idea.
Great ideas for ‘fall’ing leaves!! I’m with you – I just love the Fall. I guess I’ve heard of the ‘rock and roll’ technique but I’ll have to go searching around YouTube for some videos cuz I can’t quite imagine how that’s done. The cards today were amazing!!
Love those small leaves!!
Absolutely stunning! Love your cards!
Yes, fall is definitely the most beautiful season and my favorite. Especially love your happy September birthday card. Yum!
Laura, you put the exclamation point on rock and roll stamping! Gorgeous, lovely, ‘happy fall’ cards!
When some one seafches for his required thing, thus he/she wishes
to be available that in detail, therefore that thing is maintained over here.
Love your cards, especially the “Happy Autumn” card. It’s whimsical and elegant, all at the same time! Thanks so much for the great ideas!
Love your amazing fall colors on your cards, excellent Rocking and Rolling, Laura!! I love how the first card has such movement with the leaves blowing across the card. Love your style!
you know how to do it!
These are just perfect, Laura!
Gorgeous cards! I love the way the leaves are cascading and you rock that rock n’ roll technique!
The rock ‘n’ roll technique really makes these leaves come to life. Such little leaves make for a wonderful cascading effect.
Oh my goodness, I look at this and smell the bonfires and hear the leaves crunching under foot- love this absolutely!!!
Laura, I love these cards! I especially love the birthday card. It’s funny looking at September described as Autumn. Being a September baby born in Australia, I have always associated September with Spring. Right now in my garden all the citrus are flowering like crazy and it smells divine! 🙂
Very nice cards.
Beautiful cards and love how you used the rock n’ roll technique!
Those tiny rock n roll leaves made my jaw hit the floor. So gorgeous!
Wowee, these are absolutely stunning, Laura! I LOVE those floating leaves. Fall’s my favourite season, maybe ’cause I was born in September! 😉
gorgeous! I love the movement of the leaves. I can almost feel the crisp breeze moving past me. really amazing technique!
