Seasonal Lantern Autumn Greetings

I love this stamp set and coordinating framelit because of its versatility. The word "Seasonal" says it all as it can be used for fall and Christmas.
For today's card, the focus is Autumn.

First of all I die cut a large "Lots of Labels" framelit in Very Vanilla card stock to become the basis for the art piece.  The Lantern was built on that.

After die cutting the lantern in Basic Black card stock, and hanging it from a branch I die cut using the Seasonal Layers Thinlets, I added a candle and 3 gourds to the inside. and a bow, two pine cones and 2 branches on the bottom, each of which were double stamped (with the exception of the leaves)

Some non SU glass beads were applied to the lantern top.

Because the sentiment is rather long, I cut it into 2 words, matted them with Chocolate Chip card stock, and adhered them side ways on each side of the lantern.

Clear Wink of Stella was applied to all of the main elements.

The base is Early Espresso card stock, layered with Very Vanilla card stock and then 2 patterns of the Painted Autumn DSP.  Some Burlap ribbon was placed over the seam of the 2 patterns.

The art piece was added to the card front using dimensionals.
