Meet Me in the Orchard

Hey everybody, Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend! I’m stoked to be back with another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project to share this morning created with the amazing Autumn Charm Collection! I’m in love with literally everything in this collection and have had THE best time creating projects – and this swing easel card is no exception! Of course, I’m a huge fan of Autumn and Fall, so that explains quite a bit! This fun fold was showcased in a Splitcoast Stampers newsletter back some time ago HERE if you’re interested. It’s definitely a fun one!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Cougar Smooth 100# white cardstock along with layering panels from coordinating papers in the 12×12 Collection Pack. As with most fun folds and 3-D projects, the assembly is always the most fun!

I used a variety of die cuts from the Autumn Foxes Die Cut Pieces to embellish the card along with a butterfly from the Autumn Hedgehogs Die Cut Pieces. I popped several of the elements up with foam strips.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We have 10 feline rescues. I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty lovins! ;)
