Autumn Leaves Fractured Card

 

The Fractured Card technique seems to be all the rage right now, so I thought I’d give it a little twist using the All About Autumn Designer Series Paper. I love the fall season and the beautiful colors that go with it, so using this DSP is a no-brainer.

I used Cajun Craze cardstock for the card base (8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″) and 1/2″ strips on the front of the card.

I placed a layer of Very Vanilla (5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″) on top of the card base, followed by another layer of Cajun Craze (5 1/4″ x 4″), on which the DSP cardstock strips and focal point are placed.

I chose two different leaf designs from the All About Autumn DSP for the background corners.

The center is Very Vanilla cropped with one of the square dies from the Stylish Shapes die set.

For the leaves, I chose two different All About Autumn papers and Gold Foil, all cropped with the leaf dies from the Autumn Leaves dies.

I finished the front with the Natural Wavy Trim and some Bushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots.

 

 

For the inside, I stamped the sentiment using Cajun Craze ink on a piece of 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ Very Vanilla cardstock.

I placed a strip border near the top using a 5/8″ strip of Cajun Craze and a coordinating 1/2″ strip of All About Autumn DSP.

Just for some added interest, I adhered a leaf cropped from Distressed Gold paper.

My favorite time of year – fall – is just around the corner!

Cheerful Daisies/Earthen Texture Fusion

 

Two of my favorite bundles are Earthen Textures and Cheerful Daisies. Each of these sets is gorgeous and fun to work with, but I decided to combine elements from both sets to create this design. I also love the look of the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder as the background for the flowers and vases.

If you’d like to recreate this card, here are the simple directions:

  • The card base is Misty Moonlight, cut at 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″.
  • Emboss a 5 1/4″ x 4″ piece of Basic White cardstock with the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder, then adhere it to a 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ piece of Basic White cardstock. This will add a nice white frame around the embossed piece as well as give it a bit more strength. Adhere to the card base.
  • For the vases, using dies from the Earthen Textures bundle, crop a large and small vase from scraps of Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper. Use the small handled die to crop a different scrap of Countryside Inn DSP.
  • Crop three bunches of stems from Misty Moonlight cardstock.
  • Crop the little open-work shelf from a scrap of Night of Navy cardstock.
  • Stamp the small flower cluster, one medium daisy outline, two half daisy outlines and the flower centers from the Cheerful Daisies bundle using Blueberry Bushel ink. Use Balmy Blue ink and the solid flower stamps to apply color to the daisy outlines. Crop all flowers with the corresponding dies.

(Refer to the photo for placement of all cropped pieces.)

  • To build the design, glue the tall vase and the three bunches of stems to the left side of the card front.
  • Attach the small vase to the card front with dimensionals. Make sure you leave enough room for the flowers and shelf that go on the right side of the card. Attach the medium daisy and one half-daisy above the small vase using dimensionals. Adhere the second half-daisy with glue, sliding it slightly under the other two daisies.
  • Glue the open-work shelf to the card front.
  • Glue the handled short vase and the bunch of small flowers to the card front above the shelf.

 

 

  • Stamp the greeting from the Go To Greetings stamp set onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock using Blueberry Bushel ink and crop with the small flag die from the Nested Essentials die set. Attach to the card front with dimensionals.
  • For the envelope, stamp the small flower cluster to the lower left corner of the envelope using Blueberry Bushel ink.

FB Live Recap: Simple Darling Details Card

 

The stamped images and die cuts from the Darling Details bundle do all the hard work for you! No coloring or fussy cutting required. One of the great things about this stamp set is the distINKtive stamps – meaning they are made to do the shading for you. It’s a two-step process – stamp the outline image first, then stamp the solid image right over the outline using a lighter shade or different color ink. This set also had a number of lovely delicate dies to make frames, leaves, and stems.

You can watch the replay here if you missed the live presentation.

 

Here are the cardstock measurements for this card:
  • Card Base: Basic White – 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″
  • First Layer: Lemon Lime Twist – 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ (cut two)
  • Second Layer: Glorious Gingham Designer Series Paper – 5 1/4″ x 4″
  • Third Layer: Basic White –  4 3/4″ x 3 1/2″, emboss with your favorite embossing folder – for my sample, I used one of the Basic 3D folders.

Textured Floral

 

The Gorgeous Garden Dies make such a great background for any floral card, particularly a more solid type of stamped image. Here I’ve combined it with the Textured Floral bundle. There are a lot of dies with this bundle, so once you have them cropped you can easily build your card. You can check out my other cards on Pinterest for more inspiration.

Here’s how I made this card:

  • The card base is Soft Sea Foam cardstock cut at 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″
  • Adhere a 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ piece of Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper to the card base.
  • Crop a 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ piece of Basic White cardstock with the flower Gorgeous Garden Die and adhere it to the front with glue. Make sure to add a bit of glue to all the little areas of the die cut so that they don’t get bent when putting the card into an envelope.
  • Using Balmy Blue ink, stamp one each of the three flower images onto scraps of Basic White cardstock and crop with the corresponding dies.
  • Use Blueberry Bushel ink to stamp the larger flower center onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock and crop with the corresponding die. Glue onto the largest flower.
  • Use Blueberry Bushel ink to stamp the flower centers to the two smaller flowers.
  • Using Garden Green ink, stamp one large and two smaller leaf bunches onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock and crop with the corresponding dies. Glue onto the card front — refer to photo for placement.
  • Crop the three leaf stems from Granny Apple Green, Garden Green, and Parakeet Party cardstock. Glue to the card front — refer to photo for placement.
  • Adhere the largest flower to the card front with dimensionals, then glue the smaller flowers to the card front, slightly tucking them under the large flower.
  • Place a large, medium, and small Glossy Dot on the three sizes of flowers — refer to photo for placement.

 

 

For the inside of the card:

  • Adhere a 1/2″  x  5 1/2″strip of Hello Irresistible DSP to a 5/8″ x 5 1/2″ strip of Soft Sea Foam cardstock. Adhere to the left side of a 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ piece of Basic White cardstock. Trim the ends of the strip to match.
  • If desired, stamp a sentiment of your choice on the white cardstock, or leave it blank to write your own message.
  • Adhere the Basic White cardstock to the inside of the card.

 

 

Envelope:

  • Use Balmy Blue ink to stamp the smallest flower to the lower left corner of the envelope.
  • Use Blueberry Bushel ink to stamp the flower center.
