Welcome to the September 2021 Candy Hearts Blog Hop! This month we are featuring Autumn themed projects. I used products from the Beauty of the Earth Suite to create a Teepee Card.
Be sure to hop around to all the stops. If you get lost along the way, scroll down to the list of hoppers.

Here’s what I made:
The photos aren’t in my usual style because I’m at a stamping retreat in the mountains and don’t have my light box.

Here’s what I did:
Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:
- Merry Merlot card stock (CS) cut to 4″ x 8″, then scored in half at 4″, then scored again from the two top corners to the bottom center
- Merry Merlot CS cut to 4″ x 4″, then scored in half diagonally from corner to corner
- 2 pieces Basic White CS cut to 3-7/8″ x 3-7/8″, cut in half diagonally from corner to corner, to make 4 triangles
- 2 pieces Designer Series Paper (DSP) layer cut to 3-7/8″ x 3-7/8″, cut in half diagonally from corner to corner, to make 4 triangles
Stamped with the Beauty of Friendship stamp set:
- sentiment in Cinnamon Cider ink onto a scrap of Bumblebee CS
Cut using the Beautiful Trees Dies:
- sentiment
Assembled the card:
- burnished the folds in the Merry Merlot CS card base pieces with a Bone Folder
- 4″ Merry Merlot CS glued onto the 8″ Merry Merlot CS, lining up the score line of the smaller piece with the center score line of the larger piece, and lining up the top point of the smaller piece with the top edge of the larger piece. I made sure the two outer triangles could fold over the diamond in the middle. This is the inside of the card.
- 4 Basic White CS triangles glued onto the inside of the card base
- closed the card into a teepee shape and marked where I wanted the two ribbons to tie in a bow to close the card
- 2 pieces of ribbon adhered onto the card base using Tear & Tape
- 3 DSP layers glued onto the card base as shown (You’ll have an extra triangle leftover for another project.)
- closed card and tied ribbon in a bow
- sentiment adhered onto the front panel using
- 3 gold pearls applied onto the front panel using my Take Your Pick tool
- Folded the card in half to slip into an envelope.
