Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share. Blog Hop where we are sharing Autumnal themed projects. I have made my striped Autumnal leaf card using the Autumn Leaves stamp set and dies with the gorgeous Meandering Meadow dsp.
Colours in this card are:
To recreate the striped Autumnal leaf card, you will need:
Thick Basic White card – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Meandering Meadow dsp – strips ¼” or ⅜” wide and long enough to cover the leaf shape, great time to use up scraps.
Using the Autumn Leaf Dies I die cut a leaf into the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card.
I placed the negative leaf shaped panel down onto the Thick Basic White card front and lightly drew around the leaf shape with a pencil. This will give me a guide when placing the dsp strips.
I placed the dsp strips down over the pencil drawn leaf shape, moving them around until I got the colour palette I liked. I then glued them into position butted up tightly together. I made sure to cut off the excess as I didn’t want the strips poking out when the top panel was in position.
The Basic White panel with the die cut leaf was placed on top of the card front and using Early Espresso ink I stamped the skeleton leaf with the stalk on the Basic White panel and the veins on the dsp strips.
The sentiment from the Best Family Ever was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto the Basic White panel which was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.
A twine bow and a scattering of Earth Tones Shimmer Gems finished the card.
