I was at first a little apprehensive about working with the PaperCuts Cards.  But after creating this card I literally went and bought a bunch of these!   I love that the templates help take my cards to the next level!


Supplies used
Layered Card - The PaperCut - Orange
Archival Inks
Distress Markers
Jute


I fussy cut the leaves from the D2BA Fall Harvest Collection Papers  and layered them onto the Harvest plaid papers. I added a jute bow to the leaf bundle. I left a small matte from the original card base.


To Create the inside of the card, I cut the D2BA Fall Harvest Collection Papers  to fit the insert.


I Stamped images from D2BA Squirrel!!! and D2BA backgrounds and added to the pop out insert.







I then stamped the greeting and added to the inside of the card.
