3 Quick Fall Cards for Spellbinders

Hey friends, I'm back with 3 more cards featuring the Spellbinders September Quick & Easy Card Club Kit, "Jump Into Fall".  I really love making scenic cards and Spellbinders makes it so easy; there's so many elements to choose from too! My first two cards are scenic, my third card is created with non-traditional fall colors and the last card was one I shared earlier in the week, and am dropping it in, in case you missed it. For some reason I'm feeling super chatty today. I'm also sharing some insight into how I choose and sort my elements when making choices for a scene, plus some key styles that I turn to often. If that interests you, please scroll on down!

If I had to guess, I'd say there are at least 200 die cut elements in this kit, maybe more. When choosing which cuts I want to use, I usually spread them all out and then group them by theme. So, all the florals go together, all the critters go to together and so on.

I immediately knew I wanted to create a little outdoor scene when I was sifting and found the trees, house and pick-up truck. I started by hand cutting some of the patterned paper into slopes for hills and a flat strip for my "road. 

Everything else quickly came together, as well. It's hard to read the words on the chipboard sentiment below the house, due to it being gold foiled and the angle of my shot. It says "Love Lives Here".

The kit items that I used for the card above include:

White A2 card, adhesive, die cuts, chipboard stickers, puffy stickers, patterned paper.

Even though Spellbinders did NOT consult me when designing this kit (haha), they once again included tea and coffee elements which I absolutely love.  I can guarantee that 99% of the time, I'm going to make a little kitchen scene with these products. I can't help it! It's so easy and fun and who doesn't love coffee or tea?

I will rarely use a card panel as my base for these type cards. I prefer to just lay the scene directly on the card. It also makes for a larger scene by doing so.

I first chose my "wallpaper" (patterned paper) then worked out my previously chosen die cuts for my scene. The little fruit basket was the perfect accent too!

I also frequently will use a trimmed strip of solid cardstock for my "table top" or counter space. There's some lovely dark green card panels included in this kit which was perfect.

Elements from this kit used:

A2 white card, adhesive, die cuts, patterned paper, chipboard stickers, sequins, card panel

**There is a pack of black sequins in various sizes included in this kit. They are going to work great for Halloween cards too!

For my card above, I started with the fox. He's so adorable and I knew I wanted to use him. I chose a patterned paper from the kit and lots of leaf and floral die cuts. This kit has lots of traditional fall colors but also some non-traditional fall colors as well.

Since there are so many colors behind my fox, I wanted him to stand out a bit more. I adhered him close to the edge of a brown card panel included in the kit, then trimmed along the edge of the card panel, following the lines of the fox, only on the left side. This gives a little shadow effect which I find very appealing.

Oh, and there's more coffee....and a pumpkin. Had to throw that on there too! There's also a lovely pink card panel included in the kit that I used behind my card panel. My sentiment is a chipboard sticker and it looks kind of like a note torn from a paper pad. I backed it with some of the brown card panel to give it more definition.

Kit elements used on the card above:

A2 white card, card panels, adhesive, die cuts, chipboard stickers, puffy stickers, sequins

 

I shared the above card made from the kit, earlier in the week. If you missed it you'll find creative details here.
