Autumn Leaves Quick & Easy Showcase Card

Autumn Leaves Quick & Easy Showcase Card – that's a fancy name for how I created this card.  It's really more akin to the phrase “throw everything at the wall and see what sticks”.  I just stamped and die cut a lot of images and then arranged them starting with the two largest leaves on the front of the card.  I attached the largest leaves with dimensionals only at their base so they would hold to the card, but allow me to use glue dots and more dimensionals to add all the other leaves, greeting and layering label.  Thank goodness I decided to add the pierced dots dies before I started arranging the leaves.  In my mind I didn't envision covering them at all, but once I started playing that just seemed to look best.

I'd love to hear whether you like this “I'll just see how it works out” card making method or do you like to have a solid plan and then just execute it?  If you're in the second camp – let me know what you use to “make your plan” in the comments.  And if you're like me – no plan needed – let me know in the comments as well.

I stacked the “wishes” using Powder Pink and Granite Gray card stock.  Sandwiched in between are the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets.  These sheets make creating this stack a breeze!
