Multicolored Leaves Fall Card

Who loves the colors of autumn? I know I do.  So how about a fall card with multicolored leaves to celebrate the changing colors of the season! It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!

Multicolored Leaves Fall card

This week I have the pleasure of hosting our monthly color challenge. I just could not resist a quartet of fall colors. While I opted for a card filled with multicolored leaves, I can’t wait to see what YOU create!  So grab the stamps, papers, and inks, and join in the fun!

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips

Today’s card is easy peasy! Just a few cranks through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine, and you have all the makings for today’s card.  I die cut a set of leaves in Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, and Mossy Meadow. The trick to get the vein details to show up so well on the leaves is to spritz the cardstock with a little water before die cutting.  I LOVE how they curl up slightly.

For a change, I added the Brick & Mortar panel at an angle.  A few pearls and a Cinnamon Cider bow were used as accents.

Foxy Fall Card for The Paper Players

A foxy fall card with yummy metallic leaves is on the agenda for today. It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!

foxy fall card

This week, sweet Claire has such a fun theme challenge for us:  Fall Critters! I took my cue from the challenge badge and opted to ink up this adorable fox from the Nature’s Beauty set. I am a huge animal lover, so I can’t wait to see what YOU create!

Colors of the Day

foxy fall card

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips

This foxy fella was certainly fun to color.  I used Blender Pens and and inks to create Cajun Craze fur and Crumb Cake ground, finishing with a narrow shadowing of Balmy Blue.  Next, I punched him out with the Rectangular Postage Stamp punch, and popped him atop a mat of Brushed Metallic copper.

foxy fall card

Three Brushed Metallic leaves and a champagne rhinestone are the perfect accents.  You might be wondering about the gold hoop.  As is par for the course with me, I switched horses in the middle of the stream. The gold hoop embellishment was much more prominent with my first design idea, which involved snipping the fox out and attaching him to the leaves. However, I decided on the postage stamp concept, and left the hoop in place.  When it was all said and done, I ended up liking  just the small arc of hoop connecting the leaves and fox.

For this week’s challenge,  we are inspired by National Cat Day.  At Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate the occasion.  Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project.  I used:  Cats, Sparkle, Embossing, Clean and Simple. I can’t wait to see what YOU create!
