Summer flies by way too fast, so it seems a little wrong to be making a card that’s truly got an autumn feel to it but this card really shows off the versatility of the Rooted in Nature stamp set. I’ve created a “Pop Through Card” using the big stately oak tree in the set.
Today’s Color Combo
I started with a color palette that reminds me of the cool days of fall when the leaves are all aglow with every shade of orange. To give the tree this multi colored look, I first used the Soft Suede marker to color the tree trunk, then I used Sponge Daubers to “pounce” different colors in a random pattern over the top of the tree. I used Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry, Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler. Once the tree was stamped I cut it out with the Nature’s Roots Framelits and then did the same thing to make a duplicate tree for the pop through feature. The opening in the card was die cut with the Lakeside Framelits and the Mango Melody layer has texture added with the Subtle Embossing Folder. A strip of the Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper along the lower edges and a few leaves from the Nature’s Root’s Framelits tied up with Linen thread finish it off.
