I am getting near to the end of my Spellbinders New Release projects. Today I am featuring the last collection which is the Seasonal Label Motifs. The first season I chose to show you is the fall label motifs. These will make beautiful fall, autumn cards you will truly enjoy making. Be sure to check back tomorrow for another Season of Motifs. As always, all products used are listed at the end of this post.
I decided to go with golds, oranges, and browns, for these two cards. For the first one, I started with an A2 card base. I then cut a piece of dark brown cardstock to cover the entire front of the card and added a fall printed paper for the background. I used the Fall Label Motifs die set to create the mirror gold filigree along with the solid brown background. I also used the Fall Leaves Die D Lites to add the sentiment which was also cut from dark orange cardstock. For all the leaves, acorns, and pumpkin, I inked the edges with Distress inks (see list below for the exact color used) I then arranged and glued them to the lower left of the label.
For the second card, I decided to go a completely different route. I still started with an A2 card base and add a mat of dark orange cardstock that was dry embossed using the geo screen embossing folder and attached it to the front of the card as a background. I then cut a diamond from brushed gold cardstock using the essential diamonds die and attached it to the center of the card. I used the Fall Label Motifs set to cut out the leaves and acorns. They were then arranged and popped up using foam squares onto the left side of the diamond. I chose the sentiment from a stamp that was in my stash.
For the final embellishment I added three Journey Gold embellishments for the final touch.
I love fall and all the beautiful colors. I hope I have captured some of that in these two cards and that I have inspired you too, to give them a try! Don't forget to stop back tomorrow for another Seasonal Label set from this fabulous collection.
