Leaves.
Adhesive NOTE:
~The easiest way to attach the leaves is to put a Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet cut to the same size as your cardstock on the back of the cardstock. I usually forget, but really enjoy just peeling off the adhesive backing to attach the die cut.
~You can also put small amounts of Tombow Glue on the back of your die cut to attach it.
~If you are feeling really lazy, you can cover the back of your die cut with SNAIL. I will have to let you know later about how long things stay stuck on the cards.
3. Die-Cut your Leaves. Cut three detailed large leaves and two small solid leaves from your Copper Foil Sheet. Put a Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet on the back if desired.
~Here is the Sandwich to use: Big Shot Platform with Thin Die Adapter (OR Multipurpose Platform with all tabs closed.), FLAT Bottom cutting plate, Printer Paper folded in half on the cutting plate, Copper Foil Sheet with shiny side touching the Printer Paper, Die with cutting edge on back of Foil Sheet, Top cutting plate. The Printer Paper helps keep the Foil Sheet shiny and smooth. Without the Printer Paper, your Foil Sheet picks up all the marks on your cutting plate.
4. Finish Your Card. Lay out the leaves and the sentiment on your card front. Attach them.
5. Optional: Add a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Whisper White cardstock on the inside of the card to write on. Stamp a Cajun Craze Leaf in the lower corner if desired.
