Fall Harvest Card

Hello! As you know, a few days ago Paper Issues held their Fall Crop on their Facebook page, Paper Issues {Friends & Fans}. I made several cards, layouts, and art journal pages for several challenges. You can check out the three cards I made for three different challenges here. I submitted this card to Dona's Orange Challenge.

I was inspired to make this card after seeing a card that a woman made using a grid. I thought it was so cool how she stitched the grid. I decided to just use my Sharpie Fine Liner pen and a ruler to create the grid. It didn't come out perfect, but I decided to not let this card go to waste. Then I took my Heidi Swapp color shine (in mustard) and added some splatters onto the card. After the color shine dried, I added some enamel dots first and then the wood buttons since they had adhesive on them already. I added the pinwheel sticker and then used my Tombow adhesive to adhere my wood veneers onto the card. This card did not take very long to make and I definitely plan to make more cards similar to this one.

Supplies Used:

• Heidi Swapp Color Shine-Mustard

• Recollections Dimensional Stickers

• Imaginisce Wood Buttons

• Recollections Wood Veneers

• Recollections Halloween Enamel Dots

• Foam dots

• Tombow Xtreme Adhesive

Trio of Fall Cards

Hello! On November 6th and 7th, Paper Issues held their Fall Crop on their Facebook page, Paper Issues {Friends & Fans}. I participated and made several layouts, cards, and art journal pages for several challenges. Today, I want to share a few cards that I made.

In order to make these cards, I decided to use just one paper pad, one pack of die cuts, and a tag. I didn't want to overwhelm myself with a lot of product so I decided that choosing up to 5 items would be best.

For my first card, I adhered some sheet of paper pad from American Crafts Autumn Crisp 6x6 paper pad. Then I took some foam dots and put them on some Imaginisce Fall die cut card stock shapes. I loved adding some dimension to my card. Aren't those animals so adorable? I submitted this card to Corri's Color Challenge.

For my second card, I took another piece of Autumn Crisp paper and adhered it to my card base. I found an American Crafts DIY tag and used some foam dots to add the tag onto the card. Then I used a couple of Imaginisce card shapes. I also added some foam dots onto the shapes. I submitted this card to Jamie Dougherty's Tag Challenge.

My third card was very simple to make. I just adhered some paper onto my card base. I found an adorable wreath shape die cut and knew immediately that I wanted to use it on a card. I grabbed some foam dots and used it to adhere the die cut onto my card. I didn't even think to add any enamel dots, stickers, etc. I love how this card came out. I submitted this card to Sherri's Pop It Up Challenge.

Supplies Used:

• American Crafts Autumn Crisp 6x6 Paper Pad

• American Crafts DIY tag

• Imaginisce Fall die cut cardstock shapes

• Foam Dots

• Tombow Xtreme Adhesive
