Hello Everyone! Today I am featuring a card with one of my favorite stamps. What looks to be just a Thanksgiving stamp actually works as a year-round stamp to remind us to be give thanks always:
This card features not only Creative Impressions' stamp Give Thanks ( N071 ) but also our Cork Paper (89000) which gives this piece a lot of dimension as well as our Leaf Felt Shapes (63100 Autumn Leaves) which are definitely my "go-to" for Fall cards. They are so beautiful and add a wonderful dimension to any card - no die cutting necessary!
I began by adhering a piece of patterned paper to a burgandy card mat which was then adhered to a cream card. I cut a strip of burgundy cardstock and adhered a hand torn piece of our Cork Paper over the top. This piece was attached to the center of the card.
I stamped "Give Thanks "with dark green ink onto a natural piece of cardstock and used a circle die cut (you can use a punch too) to cut out the sentiment. I then cut a mat for it using another piece of burgundy and adhered them together. I laid the sentiment circle towards the center of the card and positioned several Felt Leaves in different colors under the circle. I removed the circle and added some liquid glue to adhere the leaves underneath. Once I was happy with the placement, I added some of our Thin Jute Twine in Rust ( 80608) and glued it underneath as well before then adding the circle sentiment and adhering it on top of the leaves and twine.
Finally I added a bit of Liquid Pearls to the "berries" on the sentiment. That's it! Easy and lovely card suitable to send to anyone.
Enjoy!
Susan
