Fall Greetings

I've got a card up on the Dies R Us Blog today and it's another fall card. Fall is my favorite time of year and I just go a bit overboard making fall cards every year. Here's my latest.....

I started with a piece of watercolor paper and just brushed some watercolor paint on the one side of the card and then did some paint splatters on the other side of the card. Next, I cut out my leaves using different fall colored cardstock and the Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaves dies.

I tied some jute around the panel and then played around placing the leaves on the panel. Once I liked the placement I attached them using some ScraPerfect Best Glue Ever.

Next I stamped the sentiment with some Vintage Photo Distress Oxide ink and popped that up so it would sit over the jute. 

Supplies Used:

Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaves

Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Ink

ScraPerfect Best Glue Ever

Thanksgiving Card

I'm here today with my first post for Dies R Us. I am so excited to be on this amazing team. So let's get to my first project.

Fall is my favorite time of year so I had to start with a fall card using some Lawn Fawn Dies and Paper along with several Distress Oxide inks.

I started by taking a white piece of cardstock and 6 different colors of my Distress Oxide Inks and applied the inks in a random pattern overlapping them to get some beautiful fall colors. I then used that piece of cardstock to cut out the leaves for the wreath.

For the base of the wreath I used a spring sprig die from Lawn Fawn and cut that out of brown cardstock even though it doesn't show in the final result.

I then assembled the wreath with all the leaves and added a twine bow at the bottom and some orange stickles around the wreath to give it some bling. I used an old Sizzix Thinlets Mixed Media die to cut out a piece of orange cardstock and added a piece of Lawn Fawn Watercolor paper behind it. I then assembled the card on a kraft card base and since I had a few leaves left over I tucked them into the bottom left corner. I added the stamped and embossed sentiment and it was done.

Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaves

Lawn Fawn Watercolor Wishes Paper Pad
