I made a card for this week's CAS-Friday challenge to use paper piecing on a fall themed project. This card is also my second card for PTI's Make it Monday #31, Creating Backgrounds with non-background Stamps. I combined the umbrella from Scattered Showers with the littlest acorns from Autumn Acorns to make this card:
I paper pieced the umbrella using three different papers from PTI's Fall Prints and Patterns. I made a background to look like raining acorns, and I cut two little acorns out of the patterned paper to decorate the sentiment.
Supplies Used (all Papertrey unless otherwise noted):
Stamps: Scattered Showers, Autumn Acorns
Paper: Rustic White, Dark Chocolate, Fall Prints & Patterns
Other: Scattered Showers Die, Angled Labels Die
Thanks for Visiting
