Hello everyone! I am so excited to be guest designing for Jaded Blossom this month. My name is Sweta, and I’m from the Garden State of New Jersey. Fall feels like it’s just around the corner with cooler mornings and evenings setting in. So today, I’m sharing a fall-themed card featuring the adorable chipmunk from the Gnome Friends Chipmunk Die set.
Let’s dive straight into the project! I die cut various parts of the chipmunk using Sizzix Textured Cardstock. Next, I assembled the chipmunk with Bearly Art glue for the smaller pieces, but for the head, tail, and tummy, I added foam tape for extra dimension.
For the background panel, I sprayed a few of my favorite Chroma Mists from Brutus Monroe over kraft cardstock to create a fun fall backdrop. I love the earthy yet shimmery tones—they set the perfect autumn vibe. To add even more texture, I dry embossed the panel with a patterned folder from my stash.
Next, I die cut a stitched banner from maroon cardstock and heat embossed the sentiment “Happy Fall, Y’all” using WOW Metallic Brass embossing powder. I also die cut a few small fall leaves to accent the banner.
Now it was time to assemble the card! I adhered the shimmer-sprayed panel to a white A2 card base, then added the sentiment banner with foam tape for dimension. I tucked the die-cut leaves around the banner for extra detail.
And here’s the fun part—have you ever used Action Wobblers on your projects? If not, you definitely need to give them a try—they’re such a blast! I added one behind the chipmunk before attaching it to the card panel, and oh my goodness, it wiggles and wobbles just like a real chipmunk. Because if you’ve ever watched them in the garden, they never sit still—so why should this one?!
And that’s my project for today! Check back again next week for another creation from me. In the meantime, stay connected with Jaded Blossom on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube. You can also find me as @Table_in_the_Attic on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.
