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

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

Save

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.

**Check out these other projects featuring these dies – here and here.

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!

• More swaps from my talented Demo friends

  November 20, 2024

  ---

  I have a few more swaps to share with you today.  These are all from our newest Online Exclusive products. 

  First up is a pretty floral card from Susan Campfield. She used the Happy Hibiscus bundle. 

  Save

  This bundle includes a Hybrid embossing folder that includes dies that coordinate with the folder!  It's so cool. You can see it here in my store. 

  In the photo below you can see the die-cut images that are textured. This is done when the die is inserted into the embossing folder with the card stock.  Yes; it is incredible! 

  Save

  The next few cards feature the Marbled Elegance suite: 

  This first pretty card is made by Natalie Travis who made the focus of her card that gorgeous golden stitched heart. 

  Save

  That pretty heart is die-cut with the Hearts of Elegance dies from our new Brushed Metallic paper in both Gold & Silver. See that here. 

  Her measurements are simple – the DSP is 4" X 3", a strip of Cherry Cobbler is 4 1/4" X 5/8" on a Pretty in Pink card base. 

  Next is a gorgeous card made by Sandy Carlson:

  Save

  Her colors are Melon Mambo with White and the same beautiful Marbled Elegance specialty DSP. She also used the new Hearts of Elegance bundle seen here.

  Thanks for stopping in.  I hope you're been enjoying the swaps I've shared.

• Check out these swap cards from the Otterly Amazing Suite!

  Two punched circles and a 3 1/2" square of DSP show off the elements in this Otter suite. The colors include Balmy blue, Calypso Coral, Old Olive and Early Espresso.  

  ~~~

  This second swap with the Otterly Amazing suite is made by Tracy Jacobs. 

  Save

  She created a fun fold by cutting up to the 5 1/2" score line at 1". That layer is adhered to the back of the card base so only the left card front opens. Simple but 'amazing' too!  It really shows off the playful scenes in the Otterly Adorable DSP.  See the DSP here. 

  Below is the bundle with the stamps & dies: 

  Save

  See this Otterly Amazing bundle here.  Many of the images in the DSP can be cut out with the Otterly Amazing dies.

  You can see the entire suite here.

  This playful otter swap was made by Kelly Acheson:

  I love the little fish at the bottom!  Her colors include Crumb Cake, Early Espresso & White. 

  I'll share more swaps tomorrow!

  I joined an online swap with my Demonstrator friends and knew you'd like to see them. They feature our newest Online Exclusive products. 

  Did you know they are releasing new products online every 2 months?!!

  First up I'm sharing cards from the Perfect Pairs stamp set. This one was made by my sweet & fun friend Selene Kempton:

  What a cute layout! She used Crumb Cake with Petal Pink and Early Espresso. The White square is 2 1/2" and the other two are 2 3/4". Sweet & simple! The embossing folder is Dashing Designs from the Annual Catalog.

  Here's a picture of this cute stamp set – it's in the newest Online Exclusives. See it here.

  Next is another sweet card using this stamp set made by Kay Cogbill.
