Vintage Tin Milk Can with Wheat Arrangement

I have another Fall card using Susan's new Garden Notes Wheat Sheath and Hawthorne Berries die sets.  

This is a 5x7 inch card.  Use a piece of Mustard cardstock and emboss in your favorite embossing folder.

Use the Garden Notes  Vintage Tin Milk Can die set and die cut the milk can, using gray card stock.  Use a Pewter metallic rub-on to shade the edges.

Use the Garden Notes Wheat Sheath Die set and die cut 5.  For instructions on how I colored these die cuts, refer to a previous post on my blog at this LINK.  

Use the Garden Notes Hawthorne Berries die set and die cut 2, using white card stock.  Color the leaves with yellow marker.  Use PanPastels to shade orange, red, and green over the yellow leaves.  The PanPastels blend very well.  Use Autumn Red Nuvo Crystal Drops to create the berries.  Let the berries dry before using this piece in your arrangement.  One of the branches will be cut in half to fit in the lower right corner.

Use the Spring Basket die set and die cut 3 grass.  Sponge brown ink on 2 and green then brown ink on the third one.  Use the Elizabeth Craft Designs Fine Pointed Scissors and cut down each blade of grass to make it the blades of grass thin.

Use a piece of gunny sack material to create a rectangle to go behind the Milk Can.  Fray the edges before attaching to the card.  Use 6mm Clear Double Sided Adhesive on the back of the rectangle to attach to the card.

Attach the Milk Can using dimensional tape in down the center of the can and 6mm Clear Double Sided Adhesive around the sides and bottom. Do not add adhesive along the top of the milk can because you will be adding the grass, wheat, and Hawthorne Berries inside the top opening. Press down over the gunny sack rectangle.

Use Joset Designs Pumpkins die set and die cut one pumpkin.  

Add the Wheat Sheaths, one Hawthorne Berries branch, and the 2 brown grass die cuts down inside the top of the Milk Can.  Add the pumpkin and the one green grass die cut on the left side of the milk can.  Attach the Hawthorne Berries die cut on the right side of the milk can.  The Hawthorne branch was cut in half to make it shorter to fit on the corner of the card.

As a finishing touch, use the pieces of gunny sack strings pulled from the rectangle and some fine gold cording to create a bow to go on the neck of the milk can.
