Happy Fall!

Hey Crafty Friends! Hope you have all had a wonderful week! I'm back today to share another fall card with you that I created using lots of Lawn Fawn goodies. I'm telling you, I really can't get enough of all of their wonderful crafty goodness! Everything they have is just so adorable!

For my card today, I used the Jump for Joy stamps and dies, So Owlsome stamps and dies, Happy Fall Line Border die, and Leafy Tree Backdrop die.


I started working on my background first. Here lately I've really been loving ink blending. So that's what I decided to go with for my background on this card. I blended Mustard Seed, Wild Honey, Spiced Marmalade, and Fired Brick Distress Oxide inks. I started with the lightest at the top and blended into the darkest at the bottom. I wanted it to look like a sky at sunset. After I inked it, I sprayed it with water from a distress sprayer and then blotted it dry with a paper towel. 

Next I started working on my scene. I die cut the Leafy Tree Backdrop from white cardstock. I added color to it with Walnut Stain Distress Oxide ink and an ink blending tool. Then I set that aside to give it time to dry completely. While I waited for it to dry, I die cut the Happy Fall Line Border out of some white cardstock. I inked it using Fired Brick Distress Oxide ink. 

Then I stamped the images that I planned on using onto some white cardstock using Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink. It's a great, crisp black ink that works wonderfully with Copic markers. I used stamps from the Jump for Joy and So Owlsome set. Then I colored them using the following Copic markers: 
Owls: R39, R37, W7, YR18, YR27, YR24, YR23, G21, G24, E25, E21
Acorns: E55, E57
Apples: R24, R27, G07
Rake: E57, E55, W4, W2
Leaves: G43, G24, YR68, Y19, R29, R39, YR31, Y17
After I had colored everything, I cut the images out using the coordinating dies. 

Now all that was left was just the assembly of all of these awesome elements. I adhered the Happy Fall line border to my background panel first. Then layered the Leafy Tree Backdrop. Lastly, I just arranged my images where I thought they looked best. I added some of the leaves to the tree and onto the background to make it look as though they were falling off the tree. Once they were all adhered, the card was complete! 


I really appreciate you stopping by and visiting me today! I hope you like the card I shared today! If you have any questions or comments, please leave them below! I hope that y'all have a great weekend! See you again soon!
