Double Easel Card & Using Negative Die-Cuts - Happy Half Hour Facebook Live

Hello, my joyful friends!  Every Thursday at 11 AM ET I go live on The Joyful Stamper Facebook Page.  Everyone is invited for a half hour of stamping fun!  I'll post the replay and project sheet with measurements below after the Live.  You can print the project sheet for easy reference.

I cannot WAIT to show you how to make this VERY easy fun fold!!  And look at all that real estate you have to work with!

I pulled out the Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper from the new Holiday Mini Catalog (request a free package) and paired it with the Gather Together Bundle, a returning favorite (it made my Favorites list).

The leaves look stunning die-cut with Brushed Metallic cardstock.  I couldn't choose from the bronze, copper, or gold so I used all 3!

I also used the Ornate Frames dies to cut more of the DSP to create 2 labels.  One is used as a substrate for the Embroidered Ribbon, hand-cut stamped wheat sheaf, and Gilded Gem.  The other label showcases the sentiment and more Gilded Gems. 

With a card this dressed up, I couldn't leave the inside naked!  I cut a Very Vanilla piece with the largest die from Ornate Layers and stamped it with images from Gather Together in Cajun Craze and Mint Macaron.

So, remember the 3 metallic leaves from the first card in this post?  I used their negative space for this one!  What is negative space?  It's what's left after die-cutting your main shape.  

This card is very simple and elegant and came together in under 10 minutes.  The paper is from the Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper and sits on a Thick Very Vanilla card base.  The sentiment was selectively inked in Early Espresso and is from the Gather Together stamp set.
