In this project, we’re diving into the cozy textures and earthy tones of autumn with a handcrafted leaf card featuring the Gather Together Online Exclusive Collection from Stampin’ Up! This card highlights a simple but stunning lacing technique that adds real texture and dimension — turning a paper leaf into an artful, stitched masterpiece. The Gather Together Collection is all about cozy fall patterns, natural colors, and detailed textures. The star of this project is the perforated leaf die, which allows you to lace thread through the die-cut holes for a rich, handmade look. We’ll layer Old Olive and Early Espresso leaves, add embossed detail with the Gathering Leaves Embossing Folder, and showcase the Gathering Together 12"x12" Designer Series Paper (DSP) — a perfect mix of autumn patterns and tones. Finishing Touches -- Add ink shading or splatter for that natural fall vibe. A warm sentiment like “Gather Together & Give Thanks” or “Grateful Heart” completes the look.
