Wishing You a Beautiful Season

Hello, fellow crafters and happy Thursday!! I hope your week is going well!! Brenda here with an Autumn card to share with you today!!

I began by stamping one of the trees from the Beautiful Bare Trees Stamp Set onto white cardstock with Twiggy Brown Ink. I stenciled the leaves using the Foliage Layers Layering Stencil Set with Wild Honey, Rusty Hinge, Seedless Preserves, Mustard Seed and Peeled Paint Distress Inks and Blending Buddy Brushes.

Next, I blended the same inks around the perimeter of an A2 panel of white cardstock. The center of the panel won’t show, so I only inked the outside. Once the ink was totally dry, I gold heat embossed leaves from the Little Leaves Stamp Set around the outside of the panel.

The tree panel was die-cut with a die in the Clean Cut Layers A2 Rectangle A Die Set. I swiped my embossing pad onto the edges of the panels and embossed them with gold embossing powder, then adhered them together with liquid glue.

I decided to add some gold touches to the tree, so I stamped and gold heat embossed some of the individual leaves from the Beautiful Bare Trees Stamp Set onto the tree. I also gold heat embossed the bird onto white cardstock, then cut it out with its Coordinating Die.

The sentiment is a combination of stamps from the Beautiful Bare Trees and Simply Sentimental – Hello stamp sets. They were gold heat embossed onto white cardstock and cut out with the Beautiful Bare Trees and Simply Sentimental – Hello coordinating die sets.

The bird and both sentiment die-cuts were popped up with adhesive foam strips, to finish the card.

There’s just something about fall colors, don’t you think?!?

Thanks so much for stopping by today!! Have a great day and I’ll see you next week!!
