Stamping With Friends Blog Hop - Fall/Autumn

Saturday, 16 November 2024

Today I'm hopping with the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop. For this Blog Hop the theme is "Fall/Autumn". Definitely feeling that way here on the West Coast and not many leaves left on the trees!

I played with the Changing Leaves Hybrid Embossing Folder Bundle on a recent lives using Metallics. I love how this card turned out with the copper and gold foil. I also added some of the Woven Gold Thread - a new Online Exclusive!

Isn't this gorgeous!

Instructions

Cut Early Espresso cardstock 4 1/4" x 11" and score at 5 1/2". Fold and burnish on scoreline using Bone Folder to form card base.
Cut Early Espresso cardstock 4" x 5 1/4" and emboss using the Distressed Tile embossing folder.
Adhere to card base.
Emboss and cut out large leaf from copper foil.
Emboss and cut two smaller leaves from gold foil.
Cut out leaves from Crumb Cake cardstock.
Adhere leaves on card base using Glue Dots.
Adhere crumb cake leaves tucked behind other leaves using Glue Dots.
Stamp sentiment on Very Vanilla cardstock using Early Espresso ink.
Cut out using circle die.
Stamp leaf outline on sentiment using Crumb Cake ink stamped off about 3 times so it is very light.
Wrap gold thread around hand 3-4 times. Pinch in the middle and remove.
Adhere behind circle.
Adhere circle to bottom right corner of card base over stems using Dimensionals
Adhere Metallic Gems.
Cut Very Vanilla cardstock 4" x 5 1/4"
Stamp leaf in bottom right corner using Early Espresso ink.
