Landscape autumnal card

Landscape autumnal card. The Autumn Toile suite is beautiful. I am using the Amber Autumn bundle part of the suite to create today’s card. It was a great opportunity to use Very Vanilla, because the background of this paper is Very Vanilla too.

Today’s card’s inspiration was from the sample in the mini catalogue, but I’ve tweaked it to make it my own. Die cutting the circles out of the Autumn Toile 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Designer Series Papers creates the autumnal scene. I also used the Earthen Toned Metallic 12″x 12″ Specialty Paper to die cut the sprig. You need to look hard – it’s on the right of the smaller circle.
