I am so excited to have been asked to be a Guest Designer for the Festive Friday Challenge. This week’s challenge is the First Day of Fall #FF0067! The four items from the list below that I incorporated into my creation were: acorns, plaid, leaves and stitching!
Where’s FREE PDF FRIDAY? So that I could join as a Guest Designer today, my Friday post has been rescheduled for SATURDAY!
HOW DO YOU PLAY ALONG? The Inspo List above lists 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE of the items in your project and link up! You can see all details on the Festive Friday Challenge blog here.
Today’s card follows Sketch #15 from my Stampin’ Pretty Sketchbook, which I introduced yesterday on my blog. Enjoy more sketch ideas, along with a printable PDF on my Stampin’ Pretty Sketchbook page here.
Stampin’ Pretty Step-by-Step Tutorial:
Begin with a 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 card base of Whisper White Thick card stock.
Use a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to crop the following Stitched Rectangles from a piece of Plaid Tidings 6×6 Designer Series Paper:
- Outside: 5 1/8 x 3 3/4 Stitched Rectangle Die
- Middle: 3 7/8 x 2 5/8 Stitched Rectangle Die
- Inside: 3 1/2 x 2 1/4 Stitched Rectangle Die
Adhere the two pieces as shown with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Use a Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment (Beautiful Autumn Stamp Set) in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto Whisper White card stock.
Crop with the 2 3/8 x 1 Stitched Rectangle Die.
Adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Adhere two Brushed Copper Foil pieces that have been copped with the stems from the Celebration Labels Dies with Mini Glue Dots.
String Linen Thread through the hole of an Acorn Trinket.
Secure with a bow.
Adhere with a Mini Glue Dot.
