Fall Is Calling

Hi everyone! Happy Tuesday – I hope your week is going along nicely! I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a truck-shaped Fall card! I used a variety of cardstock for this one – Solar White, Stardream Metallic Flame, Bright Gold Foil and Dolphin Gray, along with Hot Fudge, Red Hot, and Black Licorice from our Pop Tone line. I also used dies and die cut pieces from Keep It Simple.

Using the KIS Cuts Vintage Truck dies, I cut the card base from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White. Next, I cut the main truck body, rear end, and tail gate from Stardream Metallic Flame cardstock. I used Bright Gold Foil for the tail gate trim, bumper and license tag frame, along with Pop Tone Red Hot for the tail lights, Pop Tone Black Licorice for the tires, and Dolphin Gray for the window and mirrors.

I used the KIS Cuts Twinkling Stars Font to cut the F-A-L-L letters from Pop Tone Hot Fudge, and added the pumpkins and garland from the Keep It Simple Autumn Charm Die Cut Pieces. The sentiment on the license plate was stamped in Catherine Pooler Icing on the Cake ink using the Autumn Charm Collection Stamps. The finishing touch was adding a few small iridescent gemstones.

I cut the inside panel from Hot Fudge and added a die cut oval cut with the Stitched Ovals Nested Dies along with a sentiment from the Autumn Charm Collection Stamps and cut with the coordinating Outline Dies.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We care for 15 feline rescues and just added a Forkie pup to the tribe (Frenchie + Yorkie)! 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 or puppy lovins! ;)

  1. Ooohh…a fall version of the truck! So fun! I need to make another card using that die set-it’s such a great one. I love how you embossed the trunk too-great idea.
