Aspen Tree Dies

Oh wow-

Here is another Totally Susie card!

I just love Fall & I love the way this card turned out!

 

I used the Aspen Tree Dies- pg. 46 in the Holiday Catalog.

NOTE:  THESE ASPEN TREE DIES are now a Level 2 SALE-a-bration 

choice that you can get for FREE with a $100 product order.

WOW- that is a $36.00 value & an awesome deal!

Notice the DSP in the back behind the trees??

It is from the Splendid Day DSP on page 65 in the Holiday Catalog.

Yes- I used the back side of one of the foil sheets.

(the reverse side of silver foil that is in the top right hand corner shown above)

I made this into a fun z fold card.

(My favorite fun fold!)

And this is what it looks like when standing up.

 

 Check out the leaf & words.

They are from the 'Soft Seedlings' stamp set

on page 53 in the Holiday Catalog.

NOTE:  There is no dies with this stamp set,

so yes I did fussy cut out this leaf using my scissors.

 

HOW DID I DO THE LEAF?

• I inked the whole leaf into Crushed Curry ink.
• Then using Sponge Daubers I "LIGHTLY" added a little Pumpkin Pie ink around the leaf image.
• I then used a Sponge Dauber & added Cajun Craze ink around the edges of the leaf.
• Be sure you breath onto your stamp so that you moisten the ink.
• Then stamp the inked leaf onto Very Vanilla card stock.
• And fussy cut it out with Paper Snips (scissors).
  

Here are the supplies & measurements.
