I Love Fall Most of All Card by September Guest Designer Stephanie Davis

Hello everyone! I'm so happy to be back guesting again with Newton's Nook!! Today I'm sharing a fall card inspired by the adorable Autumn Mice stamp set. My favorite way to make cards is to combine old and new stamp sets, it's so fun and I often can't help myself!

When I began creating this card, I found so many sets that went perfectly to build a wreath of fall mice. First, I cut out my card panel out of kraft cardstock using the Framed Square Die. Then I stamped multiple images from Autumn Mice, Garden Mice, Pumpkin Latte, and Harvest Tails onto masking paper and cut them out. Then began building my wreath and attached all of the masks with washi tape to a circle stencil. This made it simple to place each stamp before stamping with my MISTI. I stamped each image with a no line coloring ink pad. Then colored all of the images with Copic Markers, using the no line coloring technique. I after coloring with Copic markers, I love to add even more shadows and detail with colored pencils.



Then I stamped the sentiment from Fall Fringe with black ink in the center of the wreath. Lastly, I blended some Distress Ink in Aged Mahogany using the Falling Leaves Stencil. I thought the blended leaves looked so beautiful peeking behind the card panel. I adhered the card panel to the card base using foam squares to complete the card. I had so much fun coloring all of these adorable images, it truly was a labor of love!

I have a tutorial of this card on my YouTube channel, if you would like to see my process.
