Fall Chipmunk Card

November 5, 2015 by Holly Gagnon 3 Comments

EP Disclosure Have you ever watched a chipmunk?  I don’t mean like Alvin either.  Chipmunks are just the cutest thing.  So busy,  busy,  running around, back and forth, under rocks then out again.   I’m sure they can be a nuisance to some and of course you should never feed wildlife.  Don’t ever feed them popcorn or Bugles.  I’m not saying I’ve fed a Chipmunk Bugles before but I bet they would like them.  *wink   Inspired by those cute lil’ rascals, here is a Fall Chipmunk Card I made with my Silhouette.

I haven’t shared a handmade card in a while.  That’s actually what I shared  the most on my blog when I started it.  Cards.  Cards. More Cards.  I made lots of cards.  Now that it is Fall, it’s the season of being Grateful.   So what is a great way to show how Grateful you are to someone, make them a handmade card.

How to make a shaped card out of die cuts. Cut the base twice then adhere one side together. Instant card!

 

This Chipmunk card is made with  my Silhouette CAMEO and a Echo Park Paper Chipmunk cut file using the Story of Fall kit .  To turn the die cut in to a card, I cut the file out  twice, once with patterned paper and once with brown cardstock then  adhered the two bases together at the tail. Instant Shaped Card.

Brads and raffia add pretty embellishments on to cards

After I adhered the two pieces together ,  I embellished the card with The Story of Fall Alpha Sticker, Decorative Brads and raffia.  I love raffia, it’s like one of my favorite go to things for Fall.

 

Adhere stickers in side of cards instead of stamps. Quick and easy!

 

Inside of the Fall Chipmunk Card, I adhered a Story of Fall Element Sticker  sentiment.

The papers and embellishments found in the Story of Fall  are so pretty to create with this Fall season.  Perfect for cards, maybe some some DIY ‘s but whatever you do, don’t feed it to the Chipmunks.
