Supplies

- Copper Clay Ink
- Gold & Vanilla 3/8″ Satin Edged Ribbon

- Mini Glue Dot
- Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine
Instructions
- Fold the Copper Clay cardstock card base in half and set aside.
- Stamp the sentiment in Copper Clay Ink onto the 5/8″ x 2 3/4″ Very Vanilla cardstock. Cut the right-hand end into a banner.
- Die cut all of the leaves, scalloped rectangles and the veins for the leaves.
- Remove the protective backing on the Gold Glimmer Paper and adhere the veins to the corresponding leaves.
- Adhere the Copper Clay/Foil scalloped rectangle to the front of the Copper Clay cardstock card base.
- Stampin’ Dimensionals are used to adhere the Gold Foil scalloped rectangle to the card front.
- Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue or the Stampin’ Seal to adhere the Very Vanilla cardstock scalloped rectangle to the Gold Foil layer.
- Arrange the leaves on the Very Vanilla cardstock scalloped rectangle. I started with the Mossy Meadow/Foil leaves in the background. A Mini Stampin’ Dimensional was applied to the back of the tip of the right-hand Mossy Meadow/Foil leaf to raise it up a bit.
- Add the Copper Clay/Foil leaf using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Slide the White/Foil leaves behind the Copper Clay/Foil leaf. Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals are on the back of the tip of each leaf.
- Use a Stampin’ Dimensional on the back of the middle of the sentiment and glue on either end. Adhere to the card front. This gives the sentiment banner a wavy look.
- To adhere the small Gold Glimmer Paper maple leaf, apply a Stampin’ Dimensional to it without removing the protective backing. Adhere to the left of the sentiment.
- Make a small bow using the Gold & Vanilla 3/8″ Satin Edged Ribbon. Adhere to the card front using a Mini Glue Dot.
- Complete the inside by adhering the 1/2″ x 5 1/4″ strip of the Copper Clay/Foil DSP to the right-hand side of the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Very Vanilla cardstock. Adhere 2 oak leaves diecut from the Gold Glimmer Paper. Adhere the panel to the inside of the card base.
Voila!
