A Stunning fall card with Gorgeous Garden; with a video tutorial and free project sheet!

October 4, 2023

Check out this fabulous, colorful autumn card we made at my September card clubs!

We added fall colors to the die-cut using Blending brushes.

This die-cut is in the Gorgeous Garden dies seen here. This is the leaves die and there is also a floral option as shown below.

If you're interested in these dies now is a great time to purchase them. Add on another item or two and you'll qualify to receive a Mystery Box from me! *see details below

The card base is Vanilla as well as the die-cut. Ink colors include: Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Wild Wheat.

We started with the two darkest colors – Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive, adding a few splotches of color leaving many open areas for the remaining two colors. I prefer to add the lightest color of Wild Wheat last, so it can fill in any open areas without covering up the previous colors.

Watch the video here or scroll down to see it below.

The stamps & leaf die-cuts are from the Autumn Leaves bundle seen here. It's a big favorite of mine this season.

Save

The die-cut is almost the entire card front except for a thin edge. I added a strip of Cherry Cobbler to the left side. The greeting is stamped on a Tailored Tags die-cut. The leaves are from both foil and Oxidized Copper papers. *The Oxidized Copper paper is back in stock!

Fun Treat box made from our Acetate Card Boxes

September 21, 2021

Did you know we carry the perfect size clear box for gifting a set of A2 cards? You can see them here or on page 137 of the annual catalog. They fit about 4 cards inside depending on how many layers there are.

Save

Well Marilyn cut one box in half and created this adorable treat box for her Card Club friends!

Save

It features the Cute Halloween designer paper and Frightfully Cute stamp set.

There's a template for the card stock below. She used the Basic Border dies (seen here) to cut the bottom edge but you wouldn't have to. If you don't use the Basic Borders Dies on the edge, you could cut the 5-1/2" down to 5".

She filled it with lots of treats & embellishments. It also fits an entire full size Kit Kat bar!

Save

She uses a mini velcro dot for closure. The card stock is actually inserted inside the box and mini glue dots are used to keep it in place.

Save

And here's the template for the card stock insert.
