Inspired By...Autumn Challenge

 Hello there! Today, I have a card for the current Inspired By...Autumn Challenge #IB354.  I'm so super excited to be joining the Inspired By... Design Team Yay!! I love these challenges so much they really get me motivated. I invite you to play along, there is a fun color inspiration photo and a sketch.  Of course you can use both..and I can't wait to see how you are inspired!




Without further ado here is my card...




I was inspired by this sketch.  Isn't it fun?  I then decided to go with some Autumn Critters.  I first cut some white cardstock to be 4 x 5 1/4.  I then found this pretty printed vellum paper pack 5.8 x 8.2 that was gifted to me.  So I picked this pretty chevron print with gold that always makes me think of Autumn/Fall.  I cut these strips to 1 inch.  I then cut them in to 1 inch squares.  I knew I needed 12 according to the sketch.


I love this Lawn Fawn stamp called Jump For Joy, it's always so much fun.  I stamped my images on Hammermill cardstock 100 pounds with Memento Tuxedo ink.  I colored them in with my Altenew and Copic Markers. I also used some Catherine Pooler Over Coffee dye ink for the tree branches. I then fussy cut everything out.  I glued my squares to my panel and then rearranged my images.  I stamped a sentiment from the set with Versafine Onyx ink on a piece of white cardstock and then I cut a fishtail with my scissors.  My panel was then glued to a brown A2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I love how this card came out!  I hope I inspired you to give the Inspired By...Autumn Challenge a try.

  1. I really love this card. I'm thinking of using the mult-square idea with some backgrounds I'm not wild about. That paper is perfect for your critters.

    1. Thank you so much Judy. If your not wild about your backgrounds this is a great way to incorporate them into this sketch. I can't wait to see your card.
