INSTRUCTIONS:
Cut Your Papers:

~Garden Green Curvy Layer: 3-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ or 6″
~Soft Suede Curvy Layer: 2-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ or 6″ (mine is 2-1/2″ x 5-1/2″)
~DSP: I cut it at 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″. To save paper you could cut two strips at 1″ x 5-1/2″ each.
Curvy Die Cutting:
~Get the Plain Curvy Die. Pay attention to where the Curvy Cutting edge is as you want this on the outside edge of your cardstock.
~Cut each edge of both of your Curvy Layers. Try to match up the curves.
Heat Embossing Your Words:
Watch This Video if you need more instructions on Basic Heat Embossing.
NOTE 1: Ink Pad: VersaMark ink pad or a Whisper White ink pad
Note 2: Mount Stamps: Stamparatus or a Stamp Block to mount your stamps on.
~Place the “One in a Million” stamp on your Garden Green Curvy Layer where you want it, bending it to fit the curve.
~Stamp your words.
~Cover with White Embossing Powder. Put the excess back in the jar.
~Melt with your Heat Tool.
Heat Embossing your Curvy Leaves:
~Stamp the Curvy Leaves Vine on Early Espresso cardstock.
~Cover with White embossing powder. Remove the excess and put it back in the jar.
~Melt with your Heat Tool. Let cool for a minute or two.
~Cut out with the coordinating die and your Cut & Emboss Machine.
Stamp Your Leaves:
~Stamp Leaves on the Curvy Soft Suede cardstock with Early Espresso ink. I alternated two leaves.
(I wish I knew what the names of these Leaves are!)
~Orange Leaves: Stamp three leaves on Pumpkin Pie cardstock with Terracotta Tile ink. Punch out with the coordinating Leaf Punch.
~Yellow Leaves: Stamp two leaves on Crushed Curry cardstock with Bumblebee ink. Punch out with the coordinating Leaf Punch.
Layering your Curvy Pieces:
~Attach your die-cut Curvy Leaves to your Soft Suede Curvy Layer with Tombow Glue.
~Place your Punched Leave where your want them and attach them. I will use Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals next time.
~Attach your Soft Suede Curvy layer to your Garden Green Curvy Layer making sure your Heat Embossed Words show up well.
Finish Your Card:
~Attach the DSP to your card base. If you cut two strips put one along the fold and the other at the bottom edge.
~Glue your Curvy Layers onto your card front.
Your Fall Leaves Quite Curvy Card is finished.
