AUTUMN FIELDS

Today's Autumn Fields Fun Fold card uses several of the dies from the Bundle.  I think the dies are my favorite part of this bundle.

The stamped images for the leaves and flowers in this bundle have coordinating dies, but there are also dies for additional leaves that provide their own detail, so stamping is not required.

The only stamped image in my autumn bouquet is the Wheat Head.  The other four leaves were just made with die cuts from Very Vanilla Cardstock.  

I used Stampin' Blends to darken the detail cuts in the leaves and then added a little color around the edges and center area with Sponge Daubers.

This card is a very easy fun fold card.  If you can cut, score and fold cardstock you can make this fun fold.

Watch this video to see just how quick and simple it is.

Once you have your card base scored and folded, you can decorate it any way you like.  I used the Autumn Opulence Designer Series Paper, but as you can see in the video, there are also other options.

The focal point on the center fold can also be any shape you like.  I used the double-sided scalloped die from Autumn Fields Dies for my focal point and then decorated it with the die cut leaves.

The back of the card is used for your personal message.

All the sentiments on this card are from the Sweet Words & Labels Stamp Set.  I used the "rock & roll" technique with one of the small decorative element stamps to add color to each corner of the message layer.  I first inked the stamp with Petal Pink ink and then "rolled" the edges of the stamp lightly on a Cajun Craze ink pad.  

Adding the couple of die cut leaves is totally optional, but I had them leftover from the card front so added them to the lower corner.  Adding DSP to the side panels on the back is also optional, but I do feel it adds a nice "finished" look.
