Something New and Something Old

Today I have made a card from some very old dies and stamps and one new die. I do love leaves as evidenced by all of the stamps and dies that I have. Unfortunately, I left them here in Florida. I must change that and bring some north when I go.  The trick is to remember that come May. Since I am here now, I am using them to the fullest. 



     New die from Altenew called Diamond Frame Cover Die
     Paper Trey Ink Dies that I have had for a long time. 
     Leaf Silhouette Die and Enclosed Leaf die and stamp. No longer available.
     I used Gina K Designs ink called Tangerine Twist and gold papers and embossing 
     powder.                       
     I wish you could see the gold better 

I am entering this card in the following challenges. 
The Paper Players     PP565 Tic Tac Toe ( last column on the right)
Color Hues Challenge   Brown and Orange
Just Us Girls Challenge Wild Card Leaves
The Four Seasons Challenge    Anything goes Fall

Double D Chalenge - Scare-in' Up Some Pumpkins

Well, we have another cute challenge for you this time.  
It's called Scare-in' Up Some Pumpkins.
You can use scarecrows or pumpkins or both
After you see the mood board for this challenge you will see why I included both in my inspiration for you.  It is so cute and I could not do just one or the other. 
 
I think fall is my favorite time of year and my favorite kind of card to make. 
 Yes, I am into matching envelopes and I find them to be easy to match to the card.  I had a piece of the DP, so I just used it up inside the envelope that matches perfectly because it is all Gina K 
 I was watching Jennifer McGuire make pop up cards and I did one for you too. 
The scarecrow inside pops up.  
This is a digital image that I got for free.  I often print them out on copy paper, as I did for this card and with the help of my light box, I traced the part that I wanted onto card stock.  
I left off some of the birds and wanted to make my own pumpkins on the front, so I omitted them too.  Then I extended the fence a bit.  Colored her up and fussy cut her out to make my pop up inside.
( she has ruffles)
GKD card stock in Tangerine Twist
Graphic 45 Artisan Style design paper
Stampin Up Autumn Harvest ( oldie but goodie for the pumpkins and leaves)
