Floating Letters - Fall-inspired

Fall-inspired Floating Letters technique on this card.  There are plenty of videos out there for this technique, so google and use the one that you like best.  You'll also see something similar called "Eclipse" cards, inspired by our recent solar eclipse.  

For the way I did it,  I cut out the letters first, then stamped them with some of the flowers and leaves from Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamps.  

Emboss the background layer with the Softly Falling folder, and attach to your card base.  I used the THICK Whisper White card stock for the base; it really makes a difference.  Attach the letters to the card front using MINI Stampin' Dimensionals.  They're the perfect size!

Since I spelled out "YOU", I added "celebrate" to the front of it, and "Amaze Me" to the end.  Celebrate You, and You Amaze Me.  I stamped those on scraps of Whisper White, and hand-cut.  Also popped up with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.

 

Close-up - although it's only marginally closer. :(  Hopefully, you can see the textured background.
