Autumn Greetings Card - PPP

 Hi, friends! 

I'm so excited to announce that I'll be guest-designing for Pretty Pink Posh this October and November. Through the two months, I'll be sharing my projects with new release as well as good old items from PPP. Hope you'll also enjoy them.  Today I've got a greeting card to share with you. I wanted to send to you my warm autumn wishes with this card. 

I started by making a background panel. I colored bristol paper with dye inks and I added watercolor paint splatters and white gouache. For hills, I added various dye ink shades to the yellow and green paper from Spiffy Speckles 6x6 paper pack (Lawn Fawn). I cut each border using Scallop Borders Die. Then I added more shades to the edges and splatters of various inks all over the panels. 

Next, I colored little cute images from Fall Signs, Giving Thanks, and Autumn Wreath sets using Copic markers and then I cut them with coordinating dies.

Main copic colors I used are as follows.  

Squirrel: E09, E07, YR09,YR04,YR14,YR12

Pumpkin : YR09, YR04, Y38 mostly 

Sarecrow : YG99,YG97,YG95,YG93,YG91 / E09, YR09, YR04/ E29,E27,E25,E23,E21,E51,E50 /B99, B97, B95, B93/

Signboard: E31,E30,E0000,W05~06

Acorns : E77,E74,E71,E70, E47,E44,E43,E42

Red mushrooms : R39,R29,R24 

Teal&Orange leaves : B39,B37,BG13, BG09~01, YR09,YR07,YR04,Y38 

Green & Yellow leaves : G28,G24,G21,G20, YR04,YR38,Y17

Brown & Orange leaves : E09,YR27,YR24,YR23,YR21, R29,YR09,Y38 

Now, it's time to assemble the scene, which is the most exciting part of card making. 

For the hills, I adhered the first two layers using a tape runner, then I adhered the third & fourth giving dimension by using a thin foam tape to make space for little diecuts to put into. Before adhering signs, I stamped sentiments from Fall Signs set with Versafine Claire Nocturne ink. 

After I finished assembling, I added white gel pen details and 3mm Sparkling Sequins for embellishment. 

 

That's it for today. Thank you so much for stopping by. 

Have a great day !
