Getting Ready for Autumn!

 Hello crafty friends! I hope all of you are doing well! I'm very excited to share today's card. Scrapbook.com sent me some fun supplies recently, and I have been enjoying creating several exciting cards and other interesting crafty projects.

Today's card though - is all about autumn! I had fun playing with the Autumn Leaves dies and Tim Holtz new mica sprays. You will find the rest of the supplies I used at the end of this blog post.

To start, I created an A2 card base out of an 8½ x 11 Neenah cardstock. I trimmed it down to 4¼ x 11, then scored it at 5½. I cut another piece measuring 4 x 5¼ to use as my front panel, and an equally sized second piece out of Tim Holtz's Distress White Heavy stock, which will be used to die cut the leaves.

I die cut the autumn leaves from the Tim Holtz's Distress White Heavy stock front panel piece. This heavy cardstock is great for this because I wanted to spray them with the mica sprays.

Next, I inked the front panel piece used to die cut the leaves with some Simon Hurley Create inks. Then, I taped this piece to the other front panel piece to make it a bit more sturdy.

Now, for the fun part: spraying the leaves with the mica sprays! Don't you love those colors?

Next, it was time to place some glue on each leaf and glue them back into the front panel piece. The texture of the leaves and the coloring make them seem to pop right off the panel now!

Now that we are almost finished with the front panel piece, it's time to tape it to the card base.

Next, I die cut the sentiment from the Autumn Leaves set out of Scrapbook.com Roses Smooth cardstock. I die cut the sentiment three times to give it some added dimension.

To finish the card, I paired it with an envelope that would match the fall colors theme!
