Good morning! Today we’re hopping along to celebrate the Autumn Afternoon release from Honey Bee Stamps! I have two cards to share today and you can find a video for one of the cards below or over at my Youtube channel!
I just love the Lovely Layers: Maple Leaf Honey Cuts die and thought it would be perfect to create an autumn themed card!
I used my Mijello Mission Gold watercolors to watercolor a few panels of cold-press watercolor paper and then die-cut them with the solid layer of the Maple Leaf die. Then I added more color and splatters of paint and metallic watercolors to give them a little more depth and dimension!
I die-cut the detail layer of the Maple Leaf die from gold glitter cardstock and then layered them onto a soft watercolor background. I added a sentiment from an older set to finish the card!
I had a leftover watercolored leaf and I didn’t want it to go to waste so I created a second more CAS card! I die-cut the detail layer again from gold glitter cardstock and also from Concord & 9th Eggplant cardstock.
I arranged them on the card panel and added a sentiment from the new Autumn sentiment set to finish the card! I’d love to know which one you prefer! 😉 Be sure to check out the full release and happy shopping! 🙂
