Fall-Themed Floral Card

Hey everybody, happy Monday! The rising temps have made me yearn for some cooler Fall weather. How about you? Leslie here with a tutorial for making a shaped Fall-themed floral card. Our orange, brown and gold cardstock is on sale this month. I used Coffee Bean and Brick Orange from our new Lessebo line paired with our Gold Glitter. And I also used Lessebo Dawn Maroon and my studio staple, Neenah Classic Crest Solar White.

Stamp Background

I started by stamping the background in brown ink on Solar White using a floral background stamp. Then, using the coordinating clear stamps, I filled in the blooms and leaves using teal, brown, burgundy, yellow, orange and green inks.

Cut Card Base & Layers

Secondly, I cut the card base from Lessebo Coffee Bean along with front and inside layering panels from Lessebo Brick Orange. I also cut a front layering panel from the stamped piece of Solar White. Additionally, I cut an inside panel from another piece of Solar White.

Adhere Layers

I adhered the stamped panel to the front orange layering panel and then to the card base. Next, I embellished the white panel with a leftover piece of the stamped panel and a sliver of Gold Glitter cardstock. Finally, I adhered the inside white and orange layering panels together.

Die Cut & Stamp Sentiments

Now it’s time to work on the front and inside sentiments. Using alpha dies, I cut the F-A-L-L letters from Lessebo Dawn Maroon and Gold Glitter and offset them. Following this, I stamped sentiments in brown ink, trimmed the front one and fussy cut the inside one. I adhered the sentiments to the panels and colored one word with an alcohol marker.

Complete Project

I added a small clear glitter enamel dot to the center of three of the blooms on the card front. The final step was adhering the inside panel to the inside of the card base.
