Autumn Pumpkin Border

Hello, Gemma here and today I’m sharing a card using the new Pumpkin Border die. 

There are lots of different ways to use this die, including colouring with different mediums or die-cut inlay with coloured card stock. I think it looks lovely die cut from white card and layered over a pretty background, so the colours show through.

I die cut the border 3 times – from white card, pearl sparkle white card, and another piece of white card with stick-it adhesive on the back. This’ll make it easier to adhere to my background. I layered the pieces together for dimension. Next, I cut some 1/4″ strips of card, in autumnal colours. I decided on 6 strips of card, in yellow/orange, purples and greens.

On a landscape mini-slimline card base (3.5 x 6″), I marked a line across the centre with pencil. I used this pencil line to help me adhere the first of my card strips in a straight line. Once all the strips were adhered across the card, I trimmed away any overhanging pieces.

I stamped a greeting from the Woodland Thanks stamp set, then removed the backing from the Pumpkin border and adhered it over the stripes of colour on my card to finish.

Thank you for stopping by, I hope this card inspired you!
