Hello! Danni here with you today to share a couple of ideas to create some "fall-themed" cards with supplies you have on hand.
I really love the colors and patterns found in the new Six by SIx 2 pad "Come Away with Me". Originally designed as a travel theme, I found papers that work beautifully for a rich, deep fall themed card or two and know you will too.
I absolutely love the blues, reds and yellows in this pad,
they are so deep in color and have the perfect autumn warmth and feel to
them.
On my first
card, Hello Fall, I wanted to create some see through windows to hold my
leaves, like when you look out your windows and see the leaves
"falling" all around you. I used a cellophane bag for mine, but you
could use any clear transparency or envelope.
See
how the cellophane covered circles make you feel like you are looking
through windows? So much fun to see the leaves "fall" through the
window.
On my second card, Fall Hello, I wanted to
stitch a tree and adhere lots of colorful, rich leaves to it as though
they were in the process of falling from the tree.
The "hello"
sentiment from the Hello Stamps from The Sweetest Thing fit perfectly
around the circles or up the tree trunk. With the ease of the acrylic
stamps, you can "curve" your sentiment to fit almost any location you
create for them.
Supplies for both cards:
Six by Six 2:Come Away with Me pad;The Sweetest Thing:Hello Stamp set;Misc:Martha Stewart Maple leaf punch, machine stitching, cellophane clear
envelopes, Papertrey Ink Heart die (butterfly)
As you can
see, there are lots of rich patterns and colors to choose from in this
ONE pad from the Six by Six 2 release. If you create some fall cards
with one of your pads, we'd love to see them!
happy creatingâ„
