Fallen Leaves Card

When we think of autumn, the first thing that comes to mind are the colors changing on the trees. Leaves that were previously green turn into a warm beauty of reds, golds and oranges. If you know someone with a birthday in the fall, then a card with colorful leaf motifs would be perfect for the season.

For this project you will need:

- white blank card
- paper napkin with leaf motifs
- scrap piece of green natural fiber paper
- olive green wide mesh ribbon
- double sided transparent tape
- stick glue, white cardboard
- fusible web
- 3-D self-sticking pads
- vellum with printed wish
- hole puncher
- 2 brass fasteners (brads)
- scissors

Instructions:

1. Tear a piece of the fiber paper out and glue it onto your card with the stick glue.
2. Cut a piece of the mesh ribbon to fit onto your card as seen in the picture.
3. Cut 2 strips of the self-sticking tape and place a piece on the top and bottom of the ribbon. Remove backing and adhere the mesh onto the card.
4. Prepare the leaves according to the tutorial in the link above and cut them exactly out. Place a few of the 3-D Pads on the backside of the leaves and remove the paper backings. Adhere the leaves onto the card. Use the picture as a placement guide.
5. Tear the printed wish out carefully using a ruler and punch 2 holes through the top of the torn piece and at the same time through the card.
6. Insert the brass fasteners through the paper and card and secure from the backside.
