Love of Leaves Have a Beautiful Day Card
Original by Gloria Plunkett
I think you’re going to discover that you absolutely need this Stampin” Up! bundle. It’s the Love of Leaves bundle, shown on page 49 of the mini catalog. The number item number is 155195 and the price is $47.50. With the dies, you can cut out the leaves and at the same time put the embossing piece of the dies inside the leaf and it does everything at once.
The directions for this card are amazingly easy. Everything is cut for you—you only need to stamp the greeting and assemble the card.
The greeting banner is cut using the Classic Label punch. This is already done for you, but when you do it, you’ll cut a piece of card stock the width of the punch opening and the length that you want the banner to be. From the bottom of the punch, put one end in and punch it and then put the other end in and punch it. You can make a banner of any length.
The banner is adhered using dimensionals. Everything else is attached using Seal (snail) except for the bow, which is attached with a glue dot.
Assemble and add the 2020-2022 In Color Enamel Dots.
The extra plaid piece is for the envelope flap.

Hello Love of Leaves Card
Original by Mary Fish
This one, too, is so easy. Everything is cut for you; the only thing you need to do besides assembling it is to stamp your little greeting. You can stamp the envelope, and the inside of the card if you wish`.
There are three layers to the front of the card (excluding the cut out leaf). After you score your base card, assemble the plaid designer paper and the piece from which the leaf is cut.
That will all then go onto the card base.
Before you add the greeting, tie a little bow with the Linen Thread.
The white leaf is adhered with dimensionals and the bow is attached with glue dots.

Gilded Autumn Hello Card
Original by Barbara Ragsdale
Isn’t this a cool card—it’s using the gorgeous Gilded Autumn designer paper. Every design in that package is absolutely beautiful. The little pieces are 2” x 1 ¾” pieces, so you may have scraps to use up. I love the little acorn–it’s bulky but so darn cute.
This card is scored for you as it is cut 11 x 4 ¼” so it wouldn’t fit into the package if it weren’t folded.
Attach the four little squares (rectangles) to the Early Espresso piece, leaving a space in the middle for the ribbon and greeting. They’re attached with Seal (snail).
Wrap the ribbon around the Espresso piece and tie a knot as shown. Then thread the linen thread through the acorn and tie it to the knot.
The greeting is attached with dimensionals.
The longer piece of designer paper is for the flap.

Many Mates Medallion Card
Original by Linda Heller
Isn’t this an amazing card? The black medallions are cut with the Cut & Emboss (Big Boss) machine; it’s just one piece. I’ll go on record here to say that the little pieces fall out SO much better with the Big Boss. It uses all of the 2020-2022 In Color colors. The strips are 5/8” wide and they slide right in there.
Adhere the white piece of card stock to the front of the base card, centering it as well as you can.
I’m going to tell you how to put the strips in and attach them. It looks more complicated than it is. Lay the black medallion piece face down. Slip one end of the colored card stock through one end and then hold that piece with your fingers away from the medallion piece. Add a tiny dot of glue in center of each black medallion of that row. There’s a perfect place for the glue—in each little solid square. Lower that strip to the glue and press into place—you might need to hold it for a few seconds. Then slip the other end of the colored strip into the medallion piece. You’ll do that for each strip starting at the top.
When you’re finished with the strips, add glue to attach the whole thing to the white layer.
Stamp the greeting with whatever stamp you choose. Add several dimensionals to the back and stick the ribbon onto the dimensionals—folding it in half before you attach it to the dimensionals.
There are tiny flowers and Gold Glimmer Enamel Dots in your little plastic bag. After you’ve attached the greeting piece, add the flowers randomly with glue dots. Add a glimmer dot to the middle of each flower.
Aren’t these beautiful cards? I’ll send you your kits as soon as I get them ready–hopefully before too long. I can’t wait to send them to you.
