Fall Leaves

Hello everyone! Hope you had a restful weekend and are feeling recharged for this new week 🙂 ! It’s TaeEun here today sharing a Fall Card. I used one of my favorite die sets, the Fall Leaves Layered Cover die set. This set includes two coverplate dies which cut eight different leaves. One die cuts the base layer, while the other one cuts the vein of the leaves. You can use them layered or as solo. The die for the base layer also cuts stitch lines on the veins of the leaves, giving them an awesome look even without the vein layer ! 

To begin, I watercolored a piece of watercolor paper in Fall colors. I used Karin brush markers in Burgundy, Gold, Olive Green, Copper Brown and Lime Green. Once it was dry, I cut the base layer from the watercolored panel. The detailed layer was cut from white cardstock and adhered to the base layer. I set the leaves aside to create the autumnal background. 

To create a subtle background, I heat embossed the Autumn Sweater on Almond Cream cardstock using white pearl embossing powder and cut it using a die from the Rectangle A2 Nested die set. Next, I cut a white frame using two dies from the Double Pierced Rococo Nested die set

I added the background panel to a white cardbase using foam tape and foam mounted the frame on it. I then splattered white opaque ink on the card for more interest. Then I picked three watercolored leaves and arranged them on the frame as shown in the picture. The sentiment is from the Thankful Gourds set. I stamped it in Aspen Cocoa and added it to the frame. 

The finishing touch was some Metallic Gold Dew Drops

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I Hope I was able to inspire you with my card 🙂 !
