Jenn certainly created Awesome Autumn inspiration for us today! Check out this super bright and happy card design!

This fun fall scene is so full of happiness! Jenn captured so many things that make Autumn awesome! The cute Apple-solutely Awesome mice have teamed up with the Let’s Go Nuts squirrels to tend to the apples, pumpkins and acorns. I love the little squirrel gathering the acorns for winter!

Jenn gave these images a bright color palette and she kindly provided the Copic colors that she used.

Samantha‘s cheery Awesome Autumn inspiration features the cute Let’s Go Nuts squirrels!

She stamped and colored all the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers before cutting them out with the coordinating dies. Then she used Distress ink in Picked Raspberry, Seedless Preserves and Dried Marigold to splatter more color and texture on the treetops.

She arranged the trees from Critters in the Burbs and Let’s Play on a panel of white Woodgrain cardstock, then she placed the cute squirrels and acorns! To finish the card, she white embossed the sentiment on black cardstock and trimmed it into strips to pop up on the card!

This card is so adorable, Samantha! Thanks for sharing with us today!

Christy’s Pumpkin Patch Card

Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Awesome Autumn Challenge! For this one I decided to make a fun pumpkin patch card, complete with black cats, and a full moon. I combined images from Purrfectly Wicked, Simply Celebrate Fall, Happy Harvest, and Jump for Joy. I stamped all the images in Jet Black ink, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

Then I created a background by blending Distress Oxide Inks onto Bristol Smooth Surface Cardstock that I’d die cut with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables. I used Spun Sugar, Saltwater Taffy, and Carved Pumpkin for the sky, and Bundled Sage for the Grass. Then I cut down a second piece with the Full Moon die and blended on Pumice Stone. Then I splattered both with some Liquid Stardust for a bit of shine.

I glued the background to the Fake Tan card base and added the moon with liquid glue, then popped the rest of the images up with foam tape, adding three leaves in the sky to give it some movement. Then I stamped a wind trail from Butterfly Kisses in Narwhal Ink behind the leaves in the sky. I stamped a sentiment from Simply Celebrate Fall in Jet Black Ink and trimmed it out with an Everyday Sentiment Banner. I also stamped on the inside of the card using Simply Fall Sentiments in Pumpkin Spice ink and finished with a bit of Platinum Stickles on the leaves.
