Stitches the Autumn Bear with Last Minute Manda

Hello everyone and a happy Monday!  I'm back to my Pilates class this morning after our 3 month Summer break...think there might be a few achy bodies tomorrow after our class...

Today I am sharing another Autumn card that I have made for Last Minute Manda.

This is Stitches the Autumn bear - there are some gorgeous cute images in this set.

I chose to use Stitches with his pumpkins and a beautiful sunflower from this set and created a him a little scene with clouds and rolling hills stencilled using distress inks. I added a little ground espresso ink around the edge of the stencilled panel just to make it look a little more more and Autumnal. 

The sentiment is from a Mama Elephant set and I've use two pigment inks to give the sentiment a two-tone effect.

Todays card is a slightly smaller A2 (US) sized card and I've used my Pinkfresh Studio Diagonal Stitched rectangles dies to add stitched detail around the edges of my card panels which have been layered up with some pretty leaf paper and Kraft card.  

Using papers in the background and below panels is a great way to add a bit of interest to a card and use up those papers we've all got in our crafty stash.

I hope that you like my card today.

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !
