Remove this painted mount from In The Countryside and tear around the edges so it's roughly 6 x 4 1/4". 

Using Sherbet, a blending brush and the circle mask, create a Sun rising up from behind the houses. 

Place your background inside the Fall embossing folder, embossed side on top, so the leaf is coming down from the top of the painted mount. Run through your embossing machine.  

Blend the Walnut Stain around the top left corner, catching your debossed image. 

Lightly swipe the Black Soot over the leaf. 

Once the ink is dry, lightly apply the Gold gilding wax, catching the tips of the leaf. Buff with a soft cloth to intensify the shine. 

Tie a length of twine around the right side of your mount and secure in a bow. 

Trim this paper from the Copper paper pad, to 6 1/4 x 4 1/2". 

Adhere your mount on to the decorative paper and then on the front of your card blank. 

Using the dies as a guide, cut ONE drop from the typewriter washi roll. Lift up the backing sheet along one end of the tape and adhere across the top of an A4 sheet of white card. Slowly peel away the backing, as you use your hand to smooth the washi tape down on to the card. Once the backing has been fully removed, you can burnish the washi to ensure there are no air bubbles or creases. 

Line up the first die and run it through your machine. 

Line up the second die and run it through your machine. 

Pop out all the sentiments, pick out the one you are using for this project and keep the rest in a tub for future projects. 

Finally, use your foam pads to affix your washi tape sentiment in place.
