Design Details:

1.  Rather then me explaining the box card base I am attaching a short video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIcjFCe8H74

2.  Your box card should look like this when complete

3.  Use the following dies to create the scene for your box: Spooky Halloween Castle, Halloween Victorian Gate, Spider Web, and Spooky Tree Gnome

Autumn Friends

Welcome back. Today, I am sharing my first autumn themed card of the year. I've had this sweet "Autumn Friends" die from CottageCutz in my craft room and it was finally time to put these cute critters on a note card.

I began by die cutting all of the images using white cardstock. I die cut them twice and I ink blended them with Distress Ink. I used a combination of "Walnut Stain, Gathered Twigs, Vintage Photo, Antique Linen, Peeled Paint, Twisted citron, Forest Moss, Barn Door, Crackling Campfire, Spiced Pumpkin, Fossilized Amber and Peacock Feathers." Since I had die cut each piece twice, I adhered the two layers together before assembling the images for dimension.

Next, I cut a white piece of cardstock to 3.75"x 5" and used a mask stencil with an oval cutout, from my stash, to create grounding for my scene. I used a combination of "Peacock Feathers, Tumbled Glass, Mowed Lawn" and Forest Moss" for the background.

After adhering my 4.25" x 5.5" pattern paper to a top folding A2 card base. I built my animal scene. The only place I added foam tape was to the back of the fox and pumpkin.

That completes my card. Thank you so much for joining me today. Until next time..... Marla

Design Steps:

1.  Use a Kraft card stock base measuring 5 1/4 x 5 1/4, DP 5 1/8 x 5 1/8 and cut 3 kraft frames using the Large Stitched Wide Square Frame die

2.  Glue the frames together and ink edges, tear around the DP and ink the edges, and finally ink the edges of the square card base

3.  Glue the DP to the front of the card and then add frames

4. Cut out the greenery, mushrooms and leaves using the following dies: Mushroom Fairy Garden (Mushrooms),  Fall Centerpiece (leaves), Spring Greenery, Greenery and Botanical Garden 2.  Ink the edges.  For the extra texture I dyed a piece of cheesecloth brown.  Lay out your cheesecloth and then to tack down put a little exta glue on the backs of your greenery

5.  Place your leaves, mushrooms and acorns as shown above

6.  Cut out the hello fall 3 times using the Fall Phrases in dark brown card stock.  Glue together add the phrase to the upper right hand corner and your card is complete
