How to create an amazing Fall card!
Hello, CutCardStock fans! Leslie here, and thanks so much for joining me on the blog today! Are you as excited about Fall as I am? It’s hands-down my most favorite time of year! The card I’m sharing with you today features some pretty yummo Fall colors – Classic Linen Gold Pearl cardstock, Curious Metallic Chestnut cardstock and Pop-Tone Tangy Orange cardstock, along with some Pop-Tone Orange Fizz cardstock and Classic Crest Baronial Ivory cardstock! Let’s make a card! 😉
*Cut a standard A2 top-folding card base and a slightly smaller panel for the inside from Classic Crest Baronial Ivory cardstock.
*Cut a triangular panel and a layering panel for the front along with a strip for the inside from Classic Linen Gold Pearl cardstock. Also grab a scrap of the Gold Pearl cardstock for the sentiment.
*Cut a triangular panel and a layering panel for the front along with a layering panel for the inside from Curious Metallic Chestnut cardstock.
*Cut two thin strips from Pop-Tone Tangy Orange cardstock and a slightly thinner strip from Pop-Tone Orange Fizz cardstock to use for embellishments.
*Stamp and die cut a variety of leaves, and die cut a few with no stamping for layering from the Pop-Tone Tangy Orange cardstock and Pop-Tone Orange Fizz cardstock.
*Layer the panels and add embellishment strips.
*Arrange the leaves on the triangular panel.
*Stamp the front sentiment, emboss and cut with stitched circle die. Layer on slightly larger orange stitched circle die cut, and add to center of leaves
*Stamp inside sentiment and extra foliage in bottom right corner.
Adhere the completed panels to the front and inside of the card base. Finish with orange gemstones.
