I wanted to do something a little different for this card, but was stumped at first. Then I had a thought to look through my drawer that has backgrounds I created, but didn't use. I found this ink-blended panel and thought the colors were just right for an autumn card! I made this background piece quite a while ago and am pretty sure it's inked with Mowed Lawn and Fossilized Amber Distress Oxides. I die cut it with a die from the Oval Double Stitched Dies.
I stamped the cute fox onto Neenah 80# cardstock and colored it with my Copic markers. I then fussy cut it out. However....I did not cut the leaves that are floating in the air! Instead, I put the panel in my MISTI and placed the fox stamp where I wanted my colored image to be. Then I inked only the leaves that aren't connected to the stamp and stamped it directly onto the inked piece. Since the background is in yellows and greens, I knew that the Copic colors I used would look just fine to color in the leaves. (All the marker colors are listed below.) I popped up the fox with some thin foam tape and adhered him to the matted oval. I used an older embossing folder for the embossed layer that is on a top-folding A2 5-½" x 4-¼" card base.

I stamped the sentiment in Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide ink and die cut it using a tag from the Tag Stitched Dies. I also die cut the little reinforcer in the same brown and blue paper I used for the card layers and adhered it to the tag. I added a little white brad to complete it and popped it up with some foam tape.
Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope your week is fun and crafty!
