Gilded Autumn Tree
Gilded Autumn is a stunning paper pack in the Stampin’ Up! August - December 2020 mini catalog. It is easy to be look over the paper I used on this card. I needed sympathy cards so I added a sympathy sentiment under the stamped tree image. You could make this the card you need by changing the sentiment.
Card Base: Cut Early Espresso 8 ½ X 11 paper in half widthwise. You now have two pieces 8 ½ X 5 ½ . Fold one of the pieces in half lengthwise for your card front. The card front now measures 4 ¼ X 5 ½.
Card Mat: Cut Crumb Cake paper 4 X 5 1/4
Card Front: Cut Chevron paper from Gilded Autumn pack 3 7/8 X 5 ⅛
Die Very Vanilla stitched rectangle - I used the 4th largest stitched rectangle. If you don’t have the stitched rectangle dies, cut a piece of Very Vanilla 2 ½ X 4. Stamp tree and sentiment with Early Espresso ink.
Attach chevron card front to card mat. Emboss these with Absolutely Argyle embossing folder. Attach this piece to the card front.
Attach the stamped Very Vanilla rectangle to card front with Stampin Dimensionals.
That’s it; you have finished your card front. Wasn’t that easy? For the inside of your card, cut a piece of Whisper White 4 X 5 ¼. Stamp a sentiment or write a note before attaching this piece inside your card.
