Hello Everyone! Jenn DuBell here, and I’m excited to bring you another creative project that celebrates the beauty of fall! As the leaves change and the air turns crisp, there’s no better time to craft stunning cards that capture the essence of the season.

Today, I’ll be sharing a tutorial of my fall-themed slimline cards that I’ve created using the fantastic range of products from Perfect Paints.

 

With a blend of vibrant colors, fun techniques, and a touch of creativity, these cards are not only a joy to make, but they’re also perfect for sending warm wishes to friends and loved ones. So, let’s dive in and get ready to craft some seasonal magic together!

Let's take a look at the products used to create these!

Supplies:


Distress Inks

49&Market Papers and quotes

Gold Embossing Powder

Art Glitter Glue

Sizzix Tim Holtz Die Set Leaf Print

Gelli Plate


Directions:

To begin, I cut two sheets of heavy ivory cardstock to 7 1/2"X 8 1/2". These were both scored at 3 3/4" with the 7 1/2" length across the top of the scoreboard. They were both folded on the score line to create 3 3/4" X 8 1/2" card bases.

Two pieces of gold cardstock were cut for the first mat at 3 5/8" X 8 3/8".

Two Pieces of patterned paper (green) were cut for the second mat at 3 1/2" X 8 1/4". These pieces were distressed on the edges using a distress tool.

For the main background, two pieces were cut from patterned paper with a white base at 3 1/4" X 8".
