Don’t you just love one layer cards sometimes? I was inspired this morning by a simple photo of some fall leaves. I thought, I not create that same feeling on a simple and classic one layer card!
Sometimes you just need a go to quick card for someone without getting all the papers out, you know? Here’s how you can achieve this exact result.
Creative Tips –
- Bold images are great for cards like this. Pick something that will really pop. I chose the largest leaf from the Gently Falling stamp set. Does anyone know what kind of leaf this is? Let me know if the comment section below!
- To keep with the falling leaves in fall theme, you can choose a trio of classic colors like Crushed Curry, Cherry Cobbler and Wild Wasabi. For the outline, the color Early Espresso with tie it all together.
- The colors are a bit brighter until you put the Early Espresso on it. Then it mutes it right down.
- To tie it all together, stamp your greeting in Early Espresso.
- That’s it! You’re done – wasn’t that fast?
And for those of you who think I knock it out of the park on the first turn, I thought I’d show you how many I had to go through before I got it just right!! Do you appreciate this? Let me know in the comment section, and I’ll include more of this kind of stuff in the future. Consider it my photo form of bloopers – I’m just human too, right?
