I had so much fun making this card for a team swap! I love how rich the Gold and Cajun Craze are when paired with Night of Navy. This card was so easy to make, I almost felt like I was cheating somehow.

Now through the end of August, the dies used in the project are available for free with a $100 purchase. If you want to earn them for free, you will need to place an order for $100 or more..... then you will use the item #163102. Below, in the product links, it shows the bundle item # which is different than earning them for free. Let me know if you have any questions, and I am more than happy to help out!

The product links are at the end of this post.

Here are the cutting instructions:

Card base: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4". This is a standard side fold card.
Card front: 4" x 5 1/4". Die cut the trees.
Distressed Gold leaves, die cut 1 large and 2 small
Cajun Craze leaf, die cut 1 small. Use mini glue dot to attach 1 gold leave staggered. Use a dimensional to attach these to the top of 1 large gold leaf.
Sentiment: 1" strip cut. Stamp, banner punch the ends. Apply with dimensionals to card front.
Apply stacked leaves to edge of sentiment layer using dimensionals

Apply embellishments
Inner matte layer: 4" x 5 1/4". Adhere to inner card.
Inner message liner: 3 3/4" x 5", adhere 1 small gold leaf in a corner. Adhere to matte layer

I hope you will make this card and mix up your colors to create a set of colors that speak to your heart like this card speaks to mine.

Hugs,
