Paper Barn Fall Dimensional Paper Project

Hello 12 x 12 Cardstock Shop & Dreaming Tree Fans! Christi here from Scrapping For Tranquility, bringing you this month’s fun collaboration with our friends at Dreaming Tree!

With Fall in the air, I think of apple orchards and pumpkin patches with big beautiful barns. This is why I chose the project I did. I chose the Red Barn SVG from the Down on the Farm Collection from Dreaming Tree. This dimensional paper barn project is such a cute fall DIY project.

Supplies:

• Encore Textured Cardstock in Green Iguana, Gingerbread, Red Currant, Jet Black, Bayou, Straw Hat
• Encore Translucent Vellum in Sunflower Yellow, Lipstick Red, Seaglass Blue
• Dreaming Tree Red Barn SVG Files

I used ink to ink my edges on most all pieces. On the siding of the barn, I used an embossing folder of straight stripes. This appeared to me as siding on the barn. Taking ink, I swiped the red downward, following the stripes, to give a more rustic look. The pictures don’t show this very well but it looks very distressed. 

I also distressed the back, which you can see better in the photos. This was such a fun fall craft to make with cardstock from 12x12 Cardstock Shop.

I plan on using this for a “Thank You for Having Us“ hostess gift box. I will line it with plastic wrap or foil and put homemade bread or cookies in it. Afterwards, my friends can use it as a luminated fall centerpiece by putting a battery-operated tea light in it.

I hope you like the barn as much as I enjoyed putting it together.

Until next time,

Christi
