Midweek Madness

Well this week has been totally mad so far; what with shopping, trips to vets, visiting friends, hospital appointments, gardening, luncheon dates and general life I wonder how have I managed to craft at all!  

Craft wise it's been all about "Harvest" this week.  The facebook groups, I'm a member of, have all had either challenges or swaps with Harvest as the theme. So I have made a variety of Harvest projects.

The first of these was for a Swap; the card had to be Autumn or fall themed with a fancy fold.  As I always think of pumpkins and different coloured leaves at this time of year, I thought I'd incorporate those.  So I'm hoping the card I created will cover the brief. 

 

 
 

My base card was Copper Clay, and was in three pieces - the biggest piece was 5 1/2 inches x 11 1/2 inches, which I scored and folded on the long side at 2 3/4, 5 1/2, 8 1/4 and 11 inches.  The remaining 1/2 inch I used as a tab. 

The other two copper clay pieces were both 2 3/4 x 11 1/2 and were both scored at the same measurements on the long side.  This made open ended boxes that I then joined together and added 2 1/2 inch square mats of "All about Autumn" dsp. 

I then decorated  the cubes with pumpkins and leaves.  The sentiment came from "In your Words" - and has turned out to be appropriate, as I've created my own magic by becoming a Stampin Up! demonstrator.  

I hope to share so much more of my journey with you all.

Happy crafting!
