Melissa shares, “Is it too early to start celebrating the early days of Autumn? I love it when sunflowers start popping up and am reminded that Fall is on the way. Join me as I create a card full of warmth and sunshine.”
STEP 1: Use the Fall Harvest Hot Foil Plate as a Press Plate and use Canyon Clay ink.
STEP 2: Cut tag from patterned paper. Adhere to center of card and tie scrunched seam binding around card with bow on right.
STEP 3: Ink blend top tag using Summer Sunrise ink. Stamp sentiment in Olive Twist ink. Adhere to center of card.
STEP 4: Cut crate from Kraft cardstock. Ink blend pumpkin and adhere both to card.
STEP 5: Ink blend florals and greens. Splatter with Distrss Spritz and adhere to crate. Finish with sequins and glitter.
This project is a wonderful reminder that the simple beauty of autumn can inspire meaningful handmade cards. ✨ From the warm seasonal color palette and layered florals to the thoughtful sentiment and cozy details, Melissa’s design is filled with inspiration for creating cards that celebrate the season while encouraging those you care about.
