Hello and happy November! Fall is in full swing in my little corner of the world. I just love fall and all the pretty leaves coming off the trees, but I don’t enjoy the cold rain. Today I’m sharing a fall inspired design featuring the Block Print Round Mushrooms, Fall Leaves and Bokeh stencil set. Let’s hava a look at what I made.
For the mushrooms and leaves I decided to use some Memory Box patterned paper from the Nutmeg Forest 6×6 pad and off white cardstock.
I made sure to position the mushroom caps on the patterned paper so that the caps would have little gold foil dots on them. The backside of the the gold dot paper was use to die cut the Fall Leaves. I used the off white cardstock for the stems.
I die cut a piece of rust colored cardstock for my background and adhered that to an off white cardstock base. Then I arranged the mushroom stems and mushroom caps.
I used thin foam squares on the mushroom caps to give them a little bit of dimension. I then tucked the larger leaf behind the larger mushroom using glue. The three smaller leaves were added at the bottom also using glue and then I added the gold foil Memory Box sentiment tab. I had thought I was done with the card, but when it came time to take photos of the card I decided to add the bokeh dots in the background. Because the card was already finished I simply placed the stencil I used on certain areas of the background and then applied the ink using a blender brush. It was a little tricky, but I think adding the dots provides a bit more interest.
I hope you enjoyed today’s project. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day.
