Today our team is sharing projects using the Sun-Kissed Autumn kit and the "one FREE with three" set, Fall Foliage.
Here's a very clean and simple design using one of the leaf images from the kit along with the coordinating print of designer paper. A card like this only takes a few minutes to make so it's easy to make multiples...this sentiment is one that will work for nearly any occasion at this time of year, so it is a nice style to have made ahead and saved in the stash for when you need it!
This one is also relatively easy to make using Memento inks of various colors and the rock-n-roll technique. It's still a clean and simple design but has a more elegant appearance with the layers and sponging.
I had to fussy-cut the leaves for both of these designs because I've been away from home all week visiting my in-laws in upper Michigan...had I been home, I would have used the cut files and my Silhouette Cameo to cut them! There's already a nice collection in the GKD store for quite a few of our sets!
Notes:
Tim Holtz tea dye, frayed burlap distress inks
Copic markers
Spellbinders Labels 18 dies
ribbons and dies from the stash!
