I have created a Fall card because I have "fallen" for this stamp set! When I first saw it I didn't know what to do with it. Then my upline, Karen Varcoe showed me how to take a portion of it and stamp that onto a 2.5 x 2.5 square of cardstock. I was hooked! One can get many different images just by stamping different portions of each image. I decided to make sure mine said, "Fall" on top. I wanted to convey early Autumn things so I made sure it didn't include the "November" line. Here is my card:
Products I used:
Sarita Paper Pack
Artbooking Cartridge
Bronze Shimmer Trim
Jute Ribbon
Durable Studs
Wood Mini Medley
Outdoor Denim Ink Pad
Slate Ink Pad
Sponge
Tombow Adhesive
3-D Foam Tape
Liquid Glass
Card Base measuring 4.25 x 5.5 inches
I cut the pumpkin shape with the new Artbooking cartridge set at 11.50 to get a large shape. The cardstock for my words measures 2.5 x 2.5. The Outdoor Denim cardstock is 4.0 x 5.25. The pattern paper measures 4.25 x 5.5.
The pumpkin and square piece were sponged in Slate. The words are stamped in Outdoor Denim. I cut a narrow piece of a different pattern at 3/8ths x 2.75 inches and stamped only one line of the words. I attached it with 3-D foam tape. Then I used Tombow to stick the word piece to the pumpkin.
To build the base I layered the dark cardstock onto the pattern piece. I glued down the two ribbons next. You will need to use Liquid Glass to tuck the Jute behind. You can just trim the shimmer tape.
I took a piece of the wooden flourishes and glued it in place on the dark cardstock with Liquid Glass. After a few seconds I attached the pumpkin on top of my "blinged out" base with 3-D tape. I put three little durables at the bottom left of the pumpkin. I glued this whole base onto my card base. You can use Tombow, but use Liquid Glass where the Jute meets the card base. That's all there is to it!
