Colors of Autumn Challenge Reminder
by Jennifer Svare
Hello! I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying time in the craft room! Just a little inspiration and reminder for the Colors of Autumn monthly challenge and your chance to win a gift certificate to the Poppystamps store! Entering is easy- check out the link to the page here for all the details.
For my Colors card, I used one of my favorite fall dies from Poppystamps called Maple Symphony. I die cut it out of a piece of 4″ x 5.25″ white cardstock, and used a craft knife to cut out the center lines. This creates a fun color that will show through from behind (see the photo instructions below).
Next, I created the background out of a piece of 4.25″ x 5.5″ white card stock. I randomly colored fall colors of Distress Oxide ink onto the background as shown below:
This could also be done with the Butterfly Symphony using spring colors! Next, I colored the leaves that were left over from the die cutting with a purple and yellow Distress Oxide ink. This part could be done in so many ways… how about foil cardstock? Also, the background could be made of a single color… so many options here! Simply glue all together, and attach to a card base. Done!
Have a wonderful day! I hope to see you over at the Challenge page with your entry and chance to win!
