9/24/23 Rising Star at A Place To Start!
10/4/23 Winner at Wednesday’s Creative Inspirations Challenge Blog!

Hello, friends! Happy Thursday! I have another awesome Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share today created with items in the Farmhouse Fall Collection! Autumn/Fall is my favorite time of the year and I just can’t get enough of all the gorgeous products in this collection. Besides the pretty papers, I used several die cut pieces, but the star of the show on this pretty slimline card is a chipboard word that I colored with an alcohol marker and embellished with a metallic marker for a little interest.

I cut my go-to size 3-3/4″ x 9″ slimline card base from CutCardStock Basis 110# White cardstock along with layering panels from the 12×12 Cardstock Pack and 6×9 Collection Pack. I adhered a strip of washi tape to a Basis 80# White cardstock strip and adhered it horizontally across the top layering panel, and then added a couple topaz gemstones on each side. I colored the chipboard word with an alcohol marker, added dots with a copper metallic marker, and adhered it to the card front. The final touch was adding a couple die cuts from the Falling For You Die Cut Pieces.

I cut the inside panel from CutCardStock Basis 80# White cardstock and embellished it with strips of the paper from the 12×12 Cardstock Pack and 6×9 Collection Pack used on the front along with another die cut piece that I layered on a paper scrap.
