It’s a new month and we have a new Creatively Simple theme for September! “Fall Flora” is our theme for the next several weeks! I’ve already noticed some of the leaves starting to turn here in Ohio!
SIMPLY LEAVES
This was my swap card for the Stampin’ Up! Incentive trip back in June! I liked the different colors I used. Since I really didn’t have any current DSP in the colors I wanted to use, I created my own with strips of cardstock on the edge!
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Crumb Cake cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- 1/2″ x 5-1/2 strips of Blackberry Bliss, Pretty Peacock and Golden Glow cardstocks were adhered approx. 1/4″ from the right edge of the base card and overlapping to show only 1/4″ of each.
- A 3 x 5-1/2 piece of Crumb Cake cardstock was embossed with the leaves EF from Seasonal Cheer Trio of Embossing Folders and adhere to the front on the left.
- Stamp and punch the Blackberry Bliss leaf, the Golden Glow polka dot leaf and the vein Pretty Peacock leaf using same colored inks.
- Stamp the checkered leaf with Old Olive Ink and hand-cut.
- Assemble all on the front with Blackberry Bliss and Pretty Peacock flat, the others with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Stamp greeting with Pretty Peacock Ink on 1/2 x 3-1/2 strip of Basic White cardstock and cut end at an angle. Add to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Tie a bow with Linen Thread and add to the stems with a Mini Glue Dot.
- Apply three green Natural Matte Dots to the background.
