Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Friendship Card

Good Morning! Here’s another quick card made with the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves bundle. This card is kind of CASE’d (copy and share everything) from a card in the Sept-Dec 2023 Mini Catalog but I really did change it up by making it a standard A2 size card rather than the elongated one in the catalog. But it worked and it came together pretty quick! You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I embossed Pretty Peacock card stock with the Distressed Tile 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Pretty Peacock card base. I adhered a strip of All About Autumn 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper to the card front with liquid glue and adhered a length of natural ribbon to it with Stampin’ Seal.

I used the dotted embossing dies from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves dies to add texture to Very Vanilla card stock. I used the small maple leaf die to cut leaves from Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Crumb Cake and Pumpkin Pie card stock and Oxidized Copper specialty paper. I adhered the leaves to the Very Vanilla panel with glue dots and wrapped it twice with Linen Thread and tied a bow. I adhered the panel to the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Timeless Arrangements stamp set and used the skinny label die from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves dies to cut it out. I adhered it to the card front with glue dots. I finished the card with the pretty Speckled dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the large maple leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves stamp set three times around the edges of a Very Vanilla panel. I used stamped off Cajun Craze, stamped off Crumb Cake and stamped off Crushed Curry. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I loved using the dies to add texture to the very Vanilla panel! And I love the simple little maple leaf die cuts from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves dies. Can you believe that yesterday was the first day of Autumn? I guess it’s time for sweaters and falling leaves!
