Love of Leaves Bundle

 Here is another fun black & white fall card, using the 'Love of Leaves' Bundle!

The technique I did here is called Inlaid Die Cutting.

How did I do it?

• Stamp the Leaf onto a 3" strip of Basic White card stock using Memento Ink.
• Die cut the Leaf.
• 3x3" Basic Black CS & die cut the Leaf out of the center of this.
• (You will NOT use that Black Leaf on this card project- save it for another project!)
• Attach the Basic Black 3x3" Leaf cut out piece to a piece of 3 1/4 x 3 1/4" Black/White Plaid DSP!
  
• NOW put dimensionals on the back side of the stamped leaf & pop it up in the center of the Basic Black Leaf cut out opening!

*In person you'd be able to the stitching from the dies that are on both the Basic Black card stock piece & the Basic White/Memento stamped Leaf.  

This is another fun Z fold card!

 

Here are the supplies & measurements so you can make this card too!

stamp set:  'Love of Leaves'

card stock:

• Basic Black- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"- fold into a z for card base

One Sheet Wonder with Snowflakes!

 Check out these snowflakes that I stamped using the 'Snowflake Wishes' stamp set.

I stamped these vertically & horizontally down the center of

a 8 1/2 x 11" piece of Basic White card stock.

I stamped the snowflakes using Misty Moonlight ink.

 

For these 4 cards, 2 of them have bases that are 4 1/4 x 11" & 

2 of them have bases that are 5 1/2 x 8 1/2".

Check out below how they are basically all the same, but I have changed them up.

This one is an easel card.

I used the Hippo & Friends Dies to cut out the words.

NOTE:  The front of the is attached to the bottom end of 

the scored part only here as shown in the photo. 

This one is a simple one with the words stamped directly onto the

card stock & the ribbon tied around the end.

It is a z fold card & looks like this when opened up.

This is a 4 1/4 x 11" piece of card stock- score at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2" to make this z fold.

NOTE:  Attach the card front to the left side of the card base only.

This is simple....yet so pretty!

I just love this sparkly ribbon.

It is the White Glittered Organdy Ribbon.

 This is what the inside looks like! 

For this one I used the Seasonal Label Dies 

to layer the words on the front of the card.

This is also an easel card, but is is also a z fold card.

 NOTE:  The card front is attached to the left side of the 

card front only to form the z fold & then stand up! 

stamp set:  'Snowflake Wishes'

card stock:

• Misty Moonlight- 4 1/4 x 11" or 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"
