Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves Sympathy Card

Good Morning and Happy Saturday! Here is a Fall sympathy card made with the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves bundle and sentiments from the Something Fancy and Phrases for All stamp sets. The All About Autumn 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper add a touch of fall elegance to the card. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I embossed a Copper Clay panel with the pretty Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Copper Clay card base. I adhered a panel of Pretty Peacock and copper foil All About Autumn 6″ x 6″ specialty designer series paper to the card front with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered another panel to a Pretty Peacock mat and adhered it to the card front with liquid glue.

I cut a small maple leaf from Pumpkin Pie with the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves dies and adhered it with glue dots. I cut two little leaves from Oxidized Copper specialty paper and adhered those with glue dots. I stamped the sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set in Versamark ink and sprinkled it with copper embossing powder. I shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool. I cut the sentiment out with the label die from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves dies.

I looped some copper ribbon on the card front, adhering it with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the label over the ribbon and leaves with dimensionals and finished the card front with Brushed Metallic dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Phrases For All stamp set in Copper Clay ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the large maple leaf from the Stampin’ Up! Autumn Leaves stamp set in Pumpkin Pie ink in the corner and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Sympathy cards are difficult, and I hope that the copper foil adds seasonal elegance to the card without being inappropriate. I do think that the sentiments are perfect along with all the Fall leaves.
