Beautiful Autumn Toile Side-step Card

I love this 5″ x 7″ beautiful Autumn Toile Side-step card! While I was not very excited about the Autumn Toile Designer Series paper (165882) at first, I find I have used it more and more and love the cards that are the result. Part of what makes this card so beautiful is the gorgeous Earthen Toned Metallic Paper (165901). I used it as a layer behind the dsp layers and the shine adds an elegant touch. I stamped, colored, and die-cut the focal point with one of the images in the Amber Autumn Bundle (165893).

This Sentimental Park Bundle caught my attention as soon as I opened the January – April Mini catalog because of the beautiful label dies. The floral corners of the dies are beautiful. A very cool thing I discovered when I first used the dies is that the the inside edge of the floral bundles is cut so that the smaller straight-edged label nestles inside the larger floral one. Sooo cool!

I used one of the patterns from the Regency Park 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (160559) to decorate the card base which is of Petal Pink cardstock.
