White on White Falling Autumn Leaves Card

Today I’m sharing a white on white falling autumn leaves card that I made for the Splitcoaststampers Clean and Simple challenge.  The challenge was to create a project with a sunset or the colors of a sunset.  I decided to create a sunset on an all white background with a tree and autumn leaves.  I used the Rubbernecker Stamps Winter Tree, Tiny Leaves, Deckle Hills and created a mask for the sunset using the Nested Circles. 

The Sunset Layer

• Apply a piece of masking tape to a piece of scrap cardstock.
• Cut the circle out of the masked cardstock.
• Remove the cardstock and attach the circle mask to the white layer.
• Apply layers of Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed, Wild Honey and Spiced Marmalade ink using a blender brush to create the the sunset.
• Remove the mask.

The Deckle Hills

• Cut two Deckle Hills.  Attach the back layer to the sunset layer using ATG adhesive and the front layer using strips of mounting tape.
• Apply strips of mounting tape to the back of the sunset layer and attach it to the card base.

The Leaves and Branches

• Cut the Winter Tree using white cardstock.
• Cut the Tiny Leaves using white cardstock.
• Use mini applicators to apply Shabby Shutters, Fired Brick and Spiced Marmalade ink to the leaves.
• Apply Mustard Seed ink over each leaf to blend in the three colors.
• Attach the leaves to the tree branches using glossy accents.

The Tree

• Apply thin strips of mounting tape to the back of the tree, tuck it in behind the ground layer and attach to the card base.
• Apply a few rolled glue dots behind a few key leaves to secure the branches to the card base.
• Finish the card by attaching a few loose falling leaves to the scene using glossy accents.

I enjoyed making this white on white autumn falling leaves card with the big orange sunset.  I so love making cards with a few touches of color against an all white background.  Here is a link to a white on white Christmas card with touches of red and green.  Here’s a link to a Pinterest page with white on white card inspiration.  Thanks for coming by and I hope you have a great day.
