Open House Card 4

 Here is the last project from my Open House, it is a mini card that will fit a regular envelope.

The Gilded Autumn Bundle has punches that match the stamps, YAHOO; fussy cutting the leaves would not be a fun way to spend an afternoon. 

Cutting Instructions

Mint Macaron - 8 1/2 x 4 1/4

Very Vanilla 3 3/16 x 3 3/16, 3 x 1/2, community cardstock to stamp and punch the leave and acorns

Dotty Side of the DSP 3 x3 

Assembly

Fold the Mint Macaron card base in half. Stamp the leaves image around the edges of the card front in Mint Macaron Ink. 

Attach the DSP to the Very Vanilla and then attach to the card front.

Now the work begins -from the community Very Vanilla Stamp 6 maple leaf outlines , ink up and stamp off the center of the leaf, repeat this for the Oak leave in Mint Macaron, Small leaf in Crushed Curry.. Stamp the Acorn outline in Crumb Cake 3 times, ink up and stamp the "cap" full strength and the bottom should be inked up and stamped off. Punch the leaves and acorns, you will have to fussy cut the Crushed Curry leaves (sorry). 

Wrap the Jute Twine twice around the card front, tie a knot, add the Acorn Trinket, tie another knot and tie in a bow.

Using the 2 inch and 2 1/4 inch circle dies cut a circle. Attach the leaves to the ring with Mono Glue, I used a Silicone Sheet to keep my work surface from getting sticky. Attach to the DSP square with Mini Dimensonals over the Jute Twine.

Stamp the sentiment in Crumb Cake and attach to the center of the wreath with Mini Dimensionals, ad the punched acorns wit Mono Glue

Hope to see you all soon!

Happy Stampin
