Autumn Leaves, Days to Remember, Pick of the Patch, Masculine Fall Birthday Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I took the other pieces of the "One Sheet Wonder" pumpkin paper that I made a few weeks back.  I has used the "Pick of the Patch" set to make the full sheet. It took a while to do because I had to stamp off and then spritz the image and then stamp on the card stock. I stuck with it and got the whole sheet filled. Then I used my Blending Brush to scrub on some more color around the whole sheet. Yesterday I cut a quarter sheet from the full sheet and used part of it. Today I'm using the other part that measures 2-1/2" x 4". Please read on to see how I made today's card.

The base of the card is a folded sheet of Basic White card stock. I taped the "One Sheet Wonder" piece to it on the left. 

On the right I glued a piece of Garden Green card stock that measured 1-1/2" and was textured using the "Painted Texture" embossing folder. 

A 1/4" piece of Pumpkin Pie card stock was cut for the strip between the two affixed pieces. I glued that strip in place.

The leaves are from the "Autumn Leaves" bundle and were die cut using the "Oxidized Copper" Designer Series Paper (DSP) and gold foil paper. I glued the two gold ones down and the copper one was set in place using Dimensionals.  I had colored a long piece of white piece of Baker's Twine using my dark Pumpkin Pie Blends pen. I tied a bow and glued it on top of the copper leaf.

The words are from the "Days to Remember" set and were stamped on a scrap piece of Basic White card stock using Garden Green ink. I punched them out using the "Double Oval" punch.  I punched out a Pumpkin Pie scalloped oval piece using the same punch. I taped the ovals together and set them in place using Dimensionals.

I had some retired rhinestones I added to give the card a little bling.  I didn't want to add too much bling since it's supposed to be a masculine card but it goes either way.  And that was it.

I like how it looked but I like yesterday's card better.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's masculine birthday card,
Wanda
