Fall blossoms
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: fionna51

 One more creation for the Creative Crew October challenges...this one for the holiday focus challenge: make a halloween, thanksgiving or fall card.

This time of year there are a lot of dry flowers on the plants around here....well, let's call them what they are. They're weeds. But they sure are pretty when the sun shines behind them and there's a bit of dew.

Details:
For the stepped up version, I
...eliminated the crumb cake sponging
...put espresso layers behind the vanilla
...make a multi-loop bow and used a button

I have to admit to using some platinum stickles on some of the flowers. Don't tell anyone, but it sure does make for a dewy look.

To make the mat behind the diecut, I cut the espresso diecut in half and pulled the parts apart to place behind the vanilla diecut. I hope that makes sense. If not, PM me and I'll try to explain it better.

I scored the edges of the vanilla panels at 1/4 and 3/8 inch in from the edges all the way around.

Sponging on the simpler version is done in crumb cake ink.

Wow Diane.....my kind of card...CAS and gorgeous, both of them. I love the simplicity, neutral colors, bit of glitter, pretty ribbon with button, tag.....gosh, just every single detail. Would make a great Make and Take. TFS

They're both lovely, Diane. I actually like the simpler one best! I love your "white style"!

Both great cards. It's amazing, though, how much the brown layer adds.

These are so pretty. I really noticed how the espresso made the card POP. Amazing what a difference it made. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful cards. I love both cards and they both have their own charm: sponging and layering. The bows are exquisite.

Thank you for sharing a CAS card that can be stepped up and still be CAS.

Diane, both versions are just beautiful and it's hard to tell which one is stepped up because they're both so lovely.

They're both very pretty cards, but this really shows how much cs layering makes everything pop. Your narrative about the weeds makes me laugh. LOL...
