On Wednesday, I shared my “orange” project for the InKing Royalty Blog Hop (if you missed that project or want to see it again, you can see that post here). While preparing for that project, I cut some leaves with the Autumn Leaves Bundle that didn’t make the final cut. Rather than toss them, I set them on the corner of my desk to inspire another card. I’m sharing that card today. Yay! Here’s a 4-1/4″ square card I made with those lovely leaves:
I stamped and cropped leaves from the Autumn Leaves on Thick Very Vanilla cardstock with Pumpkin Pie ink and Copper Clay ink. They were so easy to arrange on this card. Here’s a look at the Autumn Leaves Bundle, new in Stampin’ Up!’s September-December 2023 Mini Catalog:
This is such a gorgeous set! Despite the absence of the All About Autumn 6″ x 6″ Specialty Designer Series Paper (it’s been too popular to keep in stock), the bundle has stayed in inventory. The coordinating Adhesive-Backed Speckled Dots are also back in stock, along with a bunch of products (to see all of the items arrived in the warehouse on Thursday, click here).
The 4-1/4″ x 8-1/2″ Pecan Pie base of my card is scored at 4-1/4″ so it fits perfectly in a Medium Envelope without a need for additional postage. I added a 4″ square piece of Crumb Cake to the base after stamping it with the Sketched Plaid background stamp using Pecan Pie ink. Helpful hint: unless you are perfect with lining up stamped images (and I know you are, so you can just ignore this), start with a slightly larger piece of cardstock than you need so you can trim to the needed size. Here’s a look at the Sketched Plaid background stamp:
I arranged the leaves against the beautiful, plaid background and then topped them with a “warm wishes” sentiment that’s perfect for this time of year when things are cooling off a bit. I stamped the sentiment from the Beary Cute stamp set in Pecan Pie ink on a piece of Thick Very Vanilla and cropped it with the Modern Oval Punch. Fits perfectly! Here’s a look at the arrangement on my card:
Here’s a look at the Beary Cute Bundle, which includes the “warm wishes” sentiment I used on today’s project:
and here’s a look at the Modern Garden Bundle, which includes the AH-mazing Modern Oval Punch:
One card with Pecan Pie AND Pumpkin Pie…how could I celebrate Fall better?! If you like this mix of Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, Copper Clay and Pumpkin Pie as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
