Leaves

This is my card (Roxie) for the Anything Goes challenge this week.  The leaves are from a newly released SweetStamps, set, you can check out all the other new sets and products on the store site - right index.

I love the fall leaves that are multi colored and had to create one of my own using Copic markers for coloring.  The background panel is a stencil design from SweetStamps and the sponging was done with Ranger Distress Inks.

The decorative edges and circles were cut with Spellbinder dies and the straight 1/16" and 1/8" borders were cut with Perfect Layers mini from Perfect Paper Crafting.  The regular sized rulers will do the same job and you can find them here at SweetStamps.

Kraft - Autumn Greetings

 

The challenge this week is to use Kraft paper in you creation.  Play along in the challenge and link your card to the company blog for a chance to win a gift certificate to the online store.

Hi it's Roxie here today with a quick and easy card, I partially embossed the top panel, placed three rows of decorative tape and colored the die cut flowers and attached with tacky glue.

For a fast assembly of the flower I cut one in black and remove from die saving only the outline. Cut the second in white and do not remove the pieces from the die until after I place one sided sticky label paper larger enough to touch all the petals on the top and leaves on the bottom.  I then pull it out of the die and it's easy to remove the outline piece and replace with the black outline previously cut.  I color the white while the black is in place because it doesn't show but you could color before adding the outline if you want a lighter colored cardstock. 

Supplies:
Copic markers: leaves - G29,28,24,21, blossom center - YR18,16,15,14, petals - RV29,25,23,21 with YR12 over all colors
