🍂 Fun for Fall & Elegant Leaves

Nothing says autumn quite like golden leaves and a happy little scarecrow! For today's card, I paired a softly stamped leafy background with bright yellow tones to create a cheerful fall design that's simple, clean, and full of seasonal charm.

The Elegant Leaves background adds plenty of texture without overwhelming the card, while the adorable scarecrow becomes the star of the show. A few layers and a simple sentiment tie everything together, proving that sometimes a limited colour palette can make the biggest impact.

Basic Steps

Create a bright yellow card base and add a coordinating mat.
Stamp the leaf background onto a white panel using Daffodil Delight ink for a soft tone-on-tone effect.
Colour the scarecrow & Hey using watercolor pencils and cut
Stamp and mat the sentiment, then pop it up with dimensionals.
Arrange the scarecrow, hay bales, and sentiment before adhering everything to the card. Finish with a few embellishments for a little sparkle.

I love how this card captures the warmth of fall while keeping the design light and fresh. The monochromatic yellow creates a sunny autumn feel, and the subtle leaf background adds just enough interest without competing with the focal image.

Whether you're sending happy fall wishes or simply hoping someone's day is Wonderfall, this design is easy to recreate in your favourite autumn colours.
