Color up a cozy Autumn card that is fun to look at and also brings a smile to our face with a slightly snarky sentiment.
Today’s beautiful card design comes from Julie, who shared, “This is a cozy thank you card in warm, autumn colors. The humorous greeting is perfect for that special friend who “gets” your quirky sense of humor. Since it’s a 2-part greeting, you can always leave the snarky part off and make it plain thank you card. Since the background is a card covering image, it gives you the option to make it any color you choose.” This card is so fun to color up, with all of the small stamp images being simple. As Julie mentioned, that “Woodland Folk” background stamp is a craft room essential and is sure to bring Autumn vibes to every card.
- To make my card, I inked up the Woodfolk Bg with several colors of yellow/orange & rust inks.
- I started w/ an orangish yellow, reinked it w/ a couple of darker oranges & stamped again.
- The darkest rust was inked, mostly around the edges & stamped again. (A Misti is pretty essential for this repeated stamping.)
- After letting it dry a bit, it was die cut w/ the largest plain rectangle.
- The image & leaves were stamped, colored & die cut w/ their coordinating dies.
- I used the smaller of the 5×7 Elegant Essentials dies to cut the white shape I put behind the main image.
- The image, background & greetings were popped up.
