Fall-Inspired Card


Seeing fall in all her glory inspired me to make this card. The theme may be fall colors but this card is suitable for just about any occasion. It's not especially girly so it would work for a guy, too. Bonus!


I made this card using the Perfectly Preserved Stamp Set and Cannery Framelits Dies once again. I very much {heart} these two sets.  I also was able to feature the Comfort Café Designer Series Paper which went beautifully with the fall colors: Cajun Craze, Summer Starfruit and Early Espresso. One tool that I used for this project that I think is under utilized is the Color Spritzer Tool. With this tool and a Cajun Craze marker I was able to add the splattered effect you see on the card base. It's subtle but it kicks it up a notch - it gives the card that "something" that was missing.
