Today’s card design is from Maurilia who is pulling in all those warm neutral colors and giving us a design that embodies the season. We love the patterned paper choices as well and that she layered here wreath on top of a bright white Nested Scallop Circle with Holes die cut- very classy. Follow along with these steps to recreate this elegant nature wreath for Autumn.
- Todays card measures 4.5 by 6. Begin by choosing the wood panel from 2005 Harvest Time 6×6 Paper Pad . Trim down to 2 inches wide by 6. Next chose the mustard color panel with white polka dots from 2306 Whispers of Fall 6×9 Paper Pad. Adhere the polka dot panel onto a folded card base and then adhere the wood strip onto the left hand side.
- Die cut a doily using the largest frame from 5500-01D Inside Scallop Frame using white card stock. Stamp the sentiment from 36054 Sweater Weather onto the right side of the doily in brown ink.

- Die cut leaves from 5744D Twig Wreath with Leaves Die using orange, cinnamon and green from and fern leaves from 2005 Harvest Time 6×6 Paper Pad . Die cut the fern leaves using the same paper pad from 5832-01D Fern Leaves Die and also in kraft paper. Die cut pumpkins from 5813-06D Fall Market Add on Die from yellow and orange paper. The largest pumpkin is die cut from 5215-05D Pumpkins and Ivy Die. For depth ink blend each of these pieces in a darker shade of oxide ink.
