September Product Release Blog Hop- Day 2

Check out Day 1 of the blog hop HERE

Hello, Gemma here today to share a card with the beautiful new Autumn Wreath from the September release. My idea for this card was to create a door with the wreath hanging on it.

I began by covering a card base with some white woodgrain paper, to give the look of a wooden door.

I stamped the autumn wreath, and chose some copics in traditional autumn shades to colour them in. I then used the coordinating die to cut the image out. The die is must-have as it cuts the centre of the wreath, allowing for lots of possibilities.

I wanted to use the greeting included in the Autumn Wreath set but wasn’t sure it would stamp well on the textured paper. Instead, I stamped the sentiment onto a strip of vellum in Versafine Onyx Black ink, heat embossing it with clear embossing powder. I layered the sentiment behind the wreath, then added the wreath to the card with foam tape.

I thought it would be fun to add some Pumpkin Patch Critters to the doorstep of the card. I stamped and coloured them with copics, die cutting them with the coordinating dies. Then I added them to the card base with foam tape.

For some finishing touches, I added white gen pen details to the stamped images. I adhered an Espresso jewel for a door handle, then added some Marigold and Raspberry jewels to the wreath. I love the touch of sparkle and how these jewels work so well for Autumn cards.
