#20 Acorn Fun Fold with Painted Harvest and Scissor Box Giveaway! 20 Years, 20 Posts

Welcome to post 20!!  Thank you for sticking with me through all 20 posts!  I though it would be fun to celebrate with a giveaway of the scissor box complete with a pair of Paper Snips.  See below for details!  Today's card is with the new Autumn Harvest Designer Series Paper and the Painted Harvest bundle. The bundle is made up of the Painted Harvest Stamp set and the coordinating Leaf Punch. This stamp set has beautiful flowers, which you can see in this post. But for this card I wanted to focus on the Acorn pattern in the paper and the matching acorn stamp.   The Painted Autumn Suite of products are available to order on September 1st, 2017 – that's tomorrow!

This fun fold card is called a Joy Fold.  You open the first flap (which is made from the largest Lots of Labels framelit die) to see the second flap with the glorious acorns.

When you open the acorn flap, you see the inside greeting. 

For the greeting on this card I used the Pretty Label Punch and backed it with the Everyday Label punch (in Early Espresso card stock).  I stamped the leaves on Crumb Cake card stock – the detail leaf first in Early Espresso ink and then I stamped the solid leaf on top of it in Crumb Cake ink. I punched out the leaves and cut them apart, tucking two in the top corner and the other in the bottom opposite corner.

The paper on the left side of the card is from the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper stack, 6" x 6". I love how versatile this paper is!!  And there are several different patterns of the wood the coordinate beautifully with the acorn clolors! I finished the card off with the Crumb Cake 3/8" classic weave ribbon.

Card details and dimensions:

Very Vanilla card stock 4 1/4" x 8 1/2, scored at 5 1/2" for card base.

Scraps of Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, and Very Vanilla for punching

To cut the top flap, use the largest framelit from the Lots of Labels framelit dies. Place it on top of the folded piece of Very Vanilla (see dimensions above) extending the upper portion above the fold as shown.  Send it through the Big Shot.
