This card combines the Cuttlebug embossing folder “Floral Screen” and the Sizzix Sizzlet “Big Leaf” to create the wind blown feeling of autumn. The card is kept in the colors of chocolate and white but you can also adapt to other fall colors to get the look you prefer.

For this project you will need:

- Cuttlebug machine or Sizzix Big Shot machine for die cutting and embossing the elements used for this
  card
- blank white colored card
- white and chocolate colored cardstock
- Sizzix Sizzlet “Big Leaf”
- Cuttlebug folder “Floral Screen”
- 4 chocolate colored mini brads
- 3-D foam tape
- rubber stamp with birthday wish
- cocoa colored pigment ink
- clear embossing powder
- heat source for embossing
- stick glue or double sided adhesive tape
- decorative edged scissors

 

 

 

Instructions:

The bottom border:

1. Cut a strip of chocolate colored cardstock that is the same width of your card and slightly more than half the height. Insert one end into the Cuttlebug embossing folder and emboss. A portion of the cardstock is still plain but will anyway be covered up afterwards.
2. Now cut a strip of chocolate colored cardstock that is the width of your card and about 1 cm high. Cut one edge with your decorative edges scissors and then adhere this strip to the top of the embossed border with the decorative edge showing up.
3. Now adhere the complete chocolate colored border to the bottom of the card.

The left side border and the leaves:

4. Cut a white piece of cardstock that is the height of your card and about 1/3 of the width. Emboss this piece with your Cuttlebug embossing folder and set aside for the time being.
5. Die cut 4 leaves (2 chocolate and 2 white) with your Sizzix Sizzlet and die cutting machine. You need to die cut one chocolate colored leaf out of a piece of cardstock that is the same width as the white embossed strip and about 80% of the height. Die cut it so that the leaf is centered to create the negative. Now adhere this piece onto the embossed white piece of cardstock. Insert a brad in each corner of this piece.
6. Add 3-D foam tape to the backside of the white piece and adhere it now to the left side of the card.
7. Place 3-D foam tape to the backsides of all of the leaves and adhere these to the card. Use the picture as a placement example.

The stamped wish:

8. Stamp and emboss your birthday wish to the top right corner of the card.
