|
For card base, cut Chocolate Chip c/s 11 x 4 1/4. Score on the long side at 2 3/4 & 5 1/2. For the card front cut a second piece of CC 5 1/2 x 4 1/4. Cajun Craze 5 3/8 x 4 1/8, Delightful Dijon 5 3/8 x 4 1/8, Fall Themed Designer Paper 5 1/4 x 4. You can use scraps to stamp leaves, tags, sentiments if desired or cut to size.
Fold the 11 x 4 1/4 piece of cardstock on both score lines to create a "tent". Apply adhesive to the 2 3/4 x 4 1/4 section.
Place the top of the easel base flat to create a 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 surface. Line the bottom half of the card front up with the easel base and attach. Refold the card on the score lines to create an easel card.
Stamp leaves using same color ink as paper being stamped. I used Eggplant, Dijon, Cajun, Island Indigo for my leaves. Then cut them out using the Leaflet Framelits.
On a piece of Very Vanilla stamp the "Let our lives be full" and the "Every Leaf" sentiment from the Lighthearted Leaves set using the Chocolate Chip Ink. I used the Lots of Labels Framelits to cut out using #3 & #5 dies. Cut out the frames with the #4 & #6 in Chocolate Chip. Mount sentiment using snail or Tear & tape. Set aside
Emboss the Dijon cardstock with the Honeycomb folder. Adhere to inside of card base. Mat your card with Cajun Craze topped with the Designer Paper. Using glue dots adhere your leaves to front of card try to stay centered. Using Dimensionals mount the small tag to front covering the stems of the leaves. Center & mount the larger tag to the inside of your card using dimensionals.
Make a bow with the cording and adhere to card with glue dot. (you can make it as big or little as you want. I used a bow maker and wrapped it around several times.
