Here are the details on this fall leaf garland class.

Class Description:

Create a beautiful fall leaf garland from cardstock with me! You’ll learn helpful Silhouette Studio tools for efficiently mass-producing shapes, along with papercrafting techniques for transforming flat cardstock cutouts into lifelike, dimensional leaves through coloring, shaping, and layering. I will walk you through the steps to create this exact garland, while also teaching techniques you can use to design your own garlands for any season or decorating style.

I’ll use the Silhouette Cameo 5α with the Electrostatic (ES) Mat, but any Silhouette cutting machine with a standard sticky mat can be used for this project.

Supplies:

• Silhouette Cameo 5α
• ES Mat (or sticky cutting mat)
• Autoblade
• Cardstock in multiple colors (oranges/reds/browns/yellows/greens for fall)
• Watercolor pencils (variety of reds/yellows/greens/oranges/browns for fall) I used Artist’s Loft (Dark Green, Carmine, Golden Yellow, Yellow Green, Dark Brown, Vermillion, Cherry Red, Olive, Clay Yellow)
• Paintbrush and water
• Alternative coloring options: Colored pencils, Watercolors, Markers, or PanPastel
• Twine or narrow ribbon
• Shaping tools: original Silhouette scraper, original Silhouette spatula, or something with a flat edge like a bone folder or credit card
• Waterproof work surface
• Paper towels
• Scissors
• Soft pad for pressing, such as craft foam or a mouse pad
• Adhesives: Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue, hot glue, and/or foam adhesive squares
• Design ID D-1226474 “Autumn Leaves”

If the class becomes available to everyone, I’ll update this post with a link to the class.
