Happy Fall Y'All

 It’s Wednesday, and this week I'm sharing a card featuring Fall Joy - T041 from (High Hopes Rubber Stamps) with the sweet sentiment Happy Fall Y'All - G290 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps). These racoons are having a blast playing in the leaves. We used to do that too when we were little. So much fun. I love seeing all of the beautiful fall colours. Such a wonderful time of the year.

To create the card this week, I stamped the main image and then coloured it in with Copic Markers. Using My Creative Time - Rectangle Frame Dies, My Creative Time - Rectangle Frame Layer Dies and my Cutttlebug, I die cut the main image and the background layers.

For the base card 5.25" x 4.25", I used The Paper Studio - Primary Base Colours. The backing behind the main images is from AC Cardstock - Autumn. I attached the main image to this piece using double-sided tape. The plaid paper is from PhotoPlay - Gnome for the Holidays Thanksgiving. Once this background paper was die-cut, all of the edges were inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Carved Pumpkin. This was then applied directly to the base with double-sided tape.

To complete the assembly, I added 3M VHB - 2 sided tape on the back of the first layers and popped them up onto the bottom 2 layers. The sentiment was stamped with Memento - Tuxedo Black in and I fussy cut around it. I ran this through my Xyron Create a Sticker and then layered it onto some Orange cardstock. Then I fussy cut around it again and ran it through my Xyron as well. Then I inked around the edges with the same Tim Holtz ink I used earlier. I placed it over the main image and used 2 very small pieces of 3M VHB - 2 sided tape where it went over the edges of the main image.
