Hello Fall Card by Tasha!

 Happy Friday Ai Fans!

Tasha here sharing a Fall themed card featuring the 4849-Celebrate Spring MFT and 5369-Feline Set.

The Celebrate Spring Set is an Easter themed set, but I love this interactive door and wanted to use it for a different season. I stamped the door with black ink and colored it with Copic markers. I used the included die to cut the door opening and used a stencil to create the brick detail. 

For the background, I used the 4964 -WC Branches Set and markers to create trees full of colorful leaves. I also added a golden sky using Distress Oxide Ink and a cloud stencil; I love all the yellow and orange colors!

Lastly, I added a sweet little kitty to the inside of the doorway and attached a "Hello" die cut to the bottom of the card. The cat looks so peaceful sleeping on a pile of leaves!

Thank you for checking out today's project and I hope you are having a wonderful day!

Love Grows Here! by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing another WC Elves card.

For this one I created quite a large scene using all of the images from that set as well as several others.

I thought about the little elf from last week.  He was asleep under a mushroom.  That's all fine and dandy on a nice day but they really need somewhere to live.

I decided the little doorway from 4849 – Celebrate Spring MTF would be perfect!  I stamped it and then drew a tree around it.

Of course they needed a pathway to their door so I used

5018 – WC Cobblestone Set.

I wanted some sort of verse on here that made sense with the little elves so I started hunting through my stamps.  I came across this one "Love Grows Here" from the 5102 – Succulents Set.

Wouldn't you love to run across this in your forest? 

Copics used:

YG25, G03, RV02, RV52, T2, T5, W6, E00, E31, E42, E87

Arteza Real Brush Pens:

102, 111, 121, 127, 143, 163, 164, 173, 174, 176, 178, 181
