My first upload to this site! And my first fall birthday card! I glued it together so that 1/4" of orange shows on left under top white layer and 1/8" shows on right. Spaced out die cut leaves down side of card making sure I left room for bracket. I found laying the actual leaves from the die cutting on the paper helped with placement of die. Punched out colored circles to go behind leaves. Ribbon is actually 2 ribbons glued together. Ribbon goes behind top white layer only. Sentiment is heat embossed in gold. Cut out brown bracket, then traced around it on orange, fussy cut it about 1/8" large to make background bracket.
