Thanks for stopping by and visiting the Third Thursdays Blog Hop! Are you enjoying this amazing fall weather and the amazing colors as much as I am?!? Leaves are everywhere in my little corner of the world here in NW Ohio on this rainy Thursday! The colors of fall are so lovely against the gray clouds and the green grass that is soaking up the much needed rain. Come join the fun while you sit back and enjoy a cuppa as you peruse along today's blog hop for some Halloween and Autumn Hues inspiration!!!
I love the size of these mini slim line cards as much as I love the colorful leaves of autumn! That should tell you a lot! You can make two card bases and two card panels from one sheet of cardstock! With the cardstock vertically on your paper trimmer, cut at 2-1/4" and set this long narrow piece aside. Turn the larger piece around and score at 2-1/4" on both ends and cut down the middle at 5-1/2" for your two card bases. Cut piece you set aside at 5-3/4" and now you have your two card panels (different sizes).
The Love of Leaves Bundle was used for both cards so they could be used as a set or for individual mailing. The Whisper White Tasteful Labels die cut was embossed with the Tasteful Textures embossing folder. The leaves were adhered to the embossed layer with glue dots. The fancy linen bow was created with two separate threads from Linen Thread which was adhered with a glue dot. The panel was adhered to the card front panel with dimensionals after the panel was adhered with liquid glue.
The Have-a-Hoot Bundle was a must for the Halloween part of the theme this month. These owls are just too cute! The owl was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with sponge daubers previously inked and used with Cajun Craze and Crumb Cake. No reinking needed to obtain the softness of the colors. The sentiment is from the Free as a Bird stamp set.
The insides were also completed with the simple stamping of the leaves in So Saffron with sponging in Flirty Flamingo for the owl card and Melon Mambo for the leaves card. Once again no inking was need for the sponge daubers with just using the ink that was previously on them. The Gilded Autumn Specialty DSP was used as liners for the non-Stampin' Up! envelopes to complete the cards.
I hope that my projects have inspired you in some way today. Please continue along the blog hop for additional inspiration!
