Pumpkin Spice Cards
Hi Simple fans, Audrey here! Today I have some fall card ideas to share with you, made with our adorable new autumn-inspired collection, Pumpkin Spice. I absolutely love the warm colors and prints in the Pumpkin Spice collection. For my first card, I pulled together an earthy palette of patterned papers for my jumping off point. The green and brown prints have a natural feel that work well all year round, but bringing in a touch of orange and russet definitely says fall is here. I always love working with the chipboard pieces on card designs, as they provide a great framework for my focal point. In this case, a cute fall garden scene made up of die cuts from the Bits & Pieces ephemera pack. I added a die cut cloud image above the frame to extend the view, and popped some of the images up with foam adhesive for a bit of extra dimension. The background is made up of a mixture of prints from the 12x12 Collection Kit and the Simple Basics Kit. I added machine stitching to help define the layers. And a scalloped cardstock sticker snipped into several sections adds a final little detail and pulls it all together. My second card is a smaller 3.5" x 5" design, that also utilizes a fun Pumpkin Spice chipboard frame to ground my happy little fall scene. Simple Stories offers so many awesome embellishment choices, that it really is easy to create adorable focal point scenes. This one is made up of more Bits & Pieces die cuts along with that cute chipboard pumpkin. The backing is one of the 3x4 journaling cards from the SN@P packs. Love the green slope. Makes an instant hilly background with literally no effort. The card base was once again pieced from the 12x12 papers with a thin sliver of the Simple Basics prints. Simple and sweet! I hope you enjoy!
