Autumnal Crafting

 

The nights will soon be drawing in, the air will have a fresh nip to it and that can only mean Autumn is on its way!

I love the Autumn  with its crunchy leaves and the warm tones it brings. Always a good excuse for a hot chocolate and crafty evening!

At http://paperfundaychallenges.blogspot.com/?m=1 this months twist is Autumn and I had just the collection to create some inspiration with.

This set from Kanban features everything you associate with Autumn including some delightful sentiments.

For the Deer card I used my Daisy Mae circular nesting dies to cut the base from Centura Pearl cardstock. I then simply layered the images using foam pads.

For the next card I decided to create a tryptic design. I have a video of the process (although not for this particular card) on my YouTube channel here

My autumnal card is 8 × 8" in size. I chose the checked background card from the kit and cut it to fit the card blank.

To make the matt layer under the images and sentiment I simply drew round the design and fussy cut it.

I added gems, orange ribbon and leaves from my stash.

I think both cards turned out great and I am really pleased with them.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Crafting
