First I cut the Curious Metallic WHITE GOLD 92 # cardstock in half to make an 8 ½ by 5 ½ inch card.  I scored the card in half longways to create a perfect fold.  Then folded the card in half.

Secondly I cut the Mandarin Curious Metallic 80# text paper to 4 by 5 ¼ inches.   I then stamped the mandarin paper with leaves (using the Fall Whimsy stamp set from Stampin Up!) using an olive colored ink.

Next I stamped a pumpkin (from the Fall Whimsy stamp set) onto Curious Metallic WHITE GOLD 92 # cardstock using orange and olive colored inks.  I then cut that cardstock to 2 ¾ by 1 7/8 inches.

I adhered the pumpkin stamped cardstock to a piece of mandarin 80# text at a size of 3 by 2 1/8 inches.

Finally, I adhered that piece to a piece of white gold 92 # cardstock at a size of 3 ¼ by 2 3/8 inches.

Flower Tag:

First I cut a piece of Curious Metallic LIME 111# Card Stock, on a cricut machine, in the shape of a tag that is 3 ½ inches tall (shadowed).  Then I cut a piece of Ice Gold Curious Metallic 92 # Cover, on a cricut machine, in the shape of a tag that is 3 ½ inches tall.

I then adhered the two tags together.  I then cut a flower, on the cricut, using Mandarin Curious Metallic 111# cover paper.  I put a silver brad in the center of the flower.  Next, I cut out two leaves on the Curious Metallic LIME 111# cover paper and adhered to the tag.  I drew “stitching” around the leaves, flower and edge of the tag.

Finally, I cut a piece of ribbon and tied it to the tag.

First I cut a piece of Curious Metallic LIME 111# Cover paper in half to make the paper 8 ½ by 5 ½ inches.  I them scored the paper in half longways and folded to make a perfect card. 

I cut a piece of Ice Gold Curious Metallic 92# cover to 4 by 5 ¼ inches.  I cut the corners with a “ticket” style paper cutter. 

Then I cut out the base of the watermelons, on the cricut machine,  in Curious Metallic LIME 111 # Cover paper.  I  cut out the center of the watermelon in Curious Metallic RED LACQUER 111# Cover paper.  I punched holes in the watermelon centers with a hole punch and added black eyelets to look like seeds.  I glued all the pieces together and then adhered to the card.  I then cut out the word “summer” in the Red Lacquer 111# Cover paper on the cricut machine.  I adhered the word to the card. 

Finally, I drew “stitching around the inside of the watermelon and the edge of the card.
