Flash Card – French Foliage / Autumn Accents Leaf 11-20-12

Flash Card – French Foliage Autumn Accents Leaf Another card based on Connie Stewart’s Flash Card.  I’ve arranged the template pieces in a different way.  Can you see the leaf pattern with the Illuminate Watermark pad.  The leaf practically looks real.  You may be surprised that it was cut from the Very Vanilla layer.  You could make the one on the left without a Big Shot by cutting out the leaf by hand.  The “stepped up” version uses an Edgelit and an embossing folder.

So quick and so elegant!  The Tag Topper Punch makes them quick and easy.  We used the same gold embossing powder, gold foil, sequins, and Washi Tape on all of them, but everyone made them in different colors of card stock.  They all looked great!  I think they would look great in Real Red or really any dark color.  I can see making hundreds of these for wedding or party favors.

 

The Night of Navy sample has a wider bottom and they fit a Hershey’s Nuggets just right.  Even better, the ones with Almonds come in a matching gold wrapper!

This is another one of those thrifty cards using every little bit of paper.  The Designer Series Paper uses measurements evenly divided by 12, the dimensions of the paper.  The Tangerine Tango is also just about 1/8′ of a sheet of card stock.  The 2 poppies that are cut out came from the portion hidden by the Whisper White layer.  There was even enough to cut out slivers with the Word Window Punch to frame the greeting.  The Whisper White is just a bit smaller than that, but the left-over strip is used for the greeting cut with the Word Window Punch.  If you decide to use the Decorative Label Punch for the greeting instead, you can take it from a layer inside the card and then replace that with a punch from the Tangerine Tango.

 

And isn’t this stamp set wonderful?  I sure hope this gets carried over into the new annual catalog!  I think it’s a keeper!

So easy, yet so wonderful!  Yep.  It’s aluminum flashing again.  Don’t get tempted by the aluminum shingles which are just the right size.  You’ll need the roll of flashing.  The dies cut it just fine.  It works great with the embossing folders.  If you need to make hundreds of them, you may need to replace your folder eventually.  I made a couple dozen of these ornaments and my customers made them too.  My folder is just fine!
