Cut Mint Macaron card stock 5.5 x 8.5, score at 4.25 and fold to create a side fold A2 greeting card base.
Stamp around the edges of the card base front with the leaf cluster stamp from the Beautiful Autumn stamp set using Mint Macaron stamped off once before stamping it onto the card.
Cut Gilded Autumn designer series paper - the brown with dark brown spatter 4 x 4
Cut Very Vanilla 3.75 x 3.75, use the Layering Circles die that measures 2 5/8" to cut a circle from the center of this piece.
Cut 3 strips of Very Vanilla card stock 1" wide.
Stamp the Maple Leaf detail 6 times full strength Mint Macaron ink leaving enough space between to punch them out. Stamp the filler stamp with Mint Macaron stamped off once. Punch them out with the coordinating punch from the Autumn Punch Pack.
Stamp 7 Oak leaves detail with full strength Cajun Craze and fill in with stamped off of the same color. Stamp them so that you can punch them out with the punch.
Stamp 3 Acorns with Crumb cake full strength and the filler stamped off once
Stamp 4 of the small leaf images with full strength Early Espresso and fill with the same color stamped off once. These you will need to fussy cut out.
Using liquid glue place a bead around the edge of the circle and begin placing the leaves around as shown in the picture. The two acorns are attached flat and the third one is attached with dimensionals.
Place dimensionals on the back of this piece placing several around the edges of the circle as well as on the corners of the piece. Attach to the Gilded Autumn dsp piece, centering it and leaving a 1/8" boarder around.
Attach that to the card front with dimensionals.
Tie a bow from Linen Thread, I doubled the string. Attach with a mini glue dot.
Cut a strip of Early Espresso card stock 3/8" wide by 3", wipe embossing buddy over it and stamp the sentiment with Versamark ink. Emboss with White embossing powder. It helps to have a pair of tweezers to hold the piece while embossing so you don't burn your fingers.
To attach the sentiment cut a strip of Foam Adhesive strip 2" long and attach to the card front through the circle then attach the sentiment strip to that.
For the inside of the card cut a piece of Very Vanilla 4 x 5.25. Stamp down the side with the leaf detail stamps using the same colors as on the front of the card. Attach to the inside of the card.
