Tutorial:

I designed this card for Our Thanksgiving dinner party we have every Thanksgiving with Family and Friends.
 so I got out my Card stock from STAMPIN" UP! and chose the color I wanted, using the Rust color for the main card I then went to my stash and found the K&Company paper with fall colors with Stripes and Polka dots. I then used my Fall leaf thumb punch and used scrap pieces of fall colors and punched out a bunch of fall colored leaves.I then got My Spellbinder die cutting machine and chose the Classic Scalloped Ovals.   cut it out using my cream color card stock, I folded my card to the size and style I wanted  8"x4"
at the bottom of the front of the card I used my Martha Stewart hand punch "Autumn branches" ( I had to order this on line( @ Amazon ) last year as I could Not find it in any craft stores) I then put the polka dotted paper on the inside of the card.gluing it in place using my glue stick I then used a scrap piece of a light orange paper and printed the Place, Time and Date.using a script design I set it up and printed it out on my Computer. after it was all in place and glued I added the small fall leaves to my card in side and out.On the front of the card I used my double faced tape and put the paper with stripes  in place then added my oval also using double faced tape then added my brown ribbed ribbed again using double faced tape  I used my glue stick on each leaf around the oval in all the fall colors, I added a few flowers and then lastly I added the Stickles glitter glu in rust along the edge of the card covering the Branches.
 I do hope you enjoyed this card as much as I did creating it for Our Friends.Our Family knows we hold all the Thanksgiving meals. This year for "Christmas" We will be going to Jodee & Paul's for an Italian Christmas Dinner.

 Please Note:I did not post the inside of the Card as I feel it gives too much Information, Thank you for understanding.
