Fall Leaves

Sometimes we just want a seasonal card to say hello to someone. This is just the tool to rekindle that amazing relationship. Thoughts?

Stamps:

   Vintage Leaves

   Fall Fest

   Tie Dyed

Paper:

   Lemon Lime Twist A-2

   Early Espresso 5-1/4 x 4

   Basic White 4-7/8 x 3-3/4, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Peekaboo Peach

   Lemon Lime Twist

   Early Espresso

Technique:

   Die Cutting

Accessories:

   Little Letters Thinlits

   Leaflets Framelits Dies

   Fun Fall Framelits

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I stamped the background with the Tie-Dyed stamp: Peekaboo Peach on top and Lemon Lime Twist on the bottom. I inked and stamped full strength in the center and then stamped-off once for the sides.

I then stamped and die cut various leaves and a pumpkin with the Leaflets Framelits and the Fun Fall Framelits.

I die cut the word "FALL" using the Little Letters Thinlits.

I sponged and crinkled the leaves to add a bit more texture.

I then arranged them on the card.

I attached the leaves using dimensionals.

Next, I adhered the letters with adhesive and adhered the panel to the Early Espresso panel and then onto the card front.

Lastly, I adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Googly eyes are so fun. They will turn any adult into a child again. No one can resist the urge to shake a card and smile watching the eyes twirl around.

Note the following:

I stamped and colored my scene on Whisper White. Sky was sponged with Smoky Slate and the ground with Crushed Curry.

I glued the scene onto my die cut window frame.

For the pumpkins I inked them with Tangerine Tango, then I used the blender pen to remove the ink from the stem. I colored it with my Garden Green marker. Breathed on it to moisten the ink and then stamped it. I did this with all three pumpkins.

I used Fast Fuse to attach my ribbon. I used dimensionals to adhere the pumpkins and the sentiment.

Thank you so much for dropping by here. If you have any questions, just ask. The card is not difficult to make.

Trick or Treat

The tricky part about Halloween is that it takes me longer to conjure up an idea than it does to actually execute it! Now, isn't that a treat?

Stamps: Fall Fest, Holiday Best
Paper: Crushed Curry A-2, Whisper White Scraps for the pumpkins and leaves, Tangerine Tango for the sentiment, and Motley Monsters DSP 5 3/8 X 4 1/8
Accessories: Fun Fall Framelits, Color Me Autumn Washi Tape, 3/16" Corner Rounder, Dimensionals

The first step is to cut the Designer Series Paper and place strips of Washi tape on the front. I actually let the tape spill over to the back of the card. I then adhered the pumpkins using dimensionals.  I glued on the leaves and placed them randomly on the card. The sentiment was attached using dimensionals as well.  I tried to create a pumpkin patch with the Crushed Curry Washi tape.  I am not really sure I pulled it off, but I am still pleased with the card.  I hope you like it as well.

Thanks for stopping by here and taking a peek. All of your feedback is welcomed.

HAPPY STAMPING!
