Hi everyone! Second card with the parts I glued up with the NEW Birch Press Design dies. This time I used a NEW Memory Box die for the background. Fanciful Gilded Frame.
The first thing I made with the frame though was this place card! I looked at the die and thought, this could be folded in half and used for table decorations!
I made this in 15 minutes! That’s a record make for me time wise!
Back to the top card…
I started the wreath by laying out the four large leaves I’d made from the Forest Leaf and Berries Contour Layers dies, top, bottom and both sides.
Then I added four of the Jolly Holly Contour Layers dies.
Then I went back to the Forest set and put in the four small dies, pretty much beside the holly.
Then I added the berries from the Jolly Holly dies.
I only had two of the small branches from the Oval Leaf Brances Contour Layer so I added them on the inside of the wreath top and bottom.
I cut up the Budding Twigs Contour Layers dies and inserted them here and there.
It looks complicated to me but laying it out like this, it went together fast! YAY!
It really turned out pretty if I do say so myself! lol I never know! lol
I added some Memory Box Pastel Fairy Jewels in the light green color….matchy! lol
It’s an A2 size card and will go through the mail fine with one stamp! YAY!
Back to the pumpkin…
Do you do name cards? We don’t because…big family! I took pictures of this design without the banner too because I would more than likely use it more for a decorative piece here and there or maybe to put in front of a dish to tell what it is!
I love this pretty NEW Autumn Pumpkin from Memory Box. The details are ‘built in’… die cut and it’s ready to go! I did add a little Spiced Marmalade Distress ink with an ink blending brush but you wouldn’t have to!
I quick cut an extra pumpkin to back the pumpkin. View from the back….
I had this denim looking cardstock still out on the desk so I used it but you could use any Autumn color you like!
Here it is with the banner again. I used the banner die from a poppystamps foil and cut die set, Modest Banner Greetings.
Both designs are festive and fun! YAY for holidays!
One more thing….I made some kits for stamp club this month and I have three left. Everything is die cut/included to make one card! $15 includes the postage to you in the USA. This is the card for the kit. OH, I did use a white glaze pen on the icing, eyes and buttons and some blush on the ginger’s cheeks. That is not included in the kit.
Email or comment if you want one!

Here’s what I used for these projects…holler if you have any questions!
