Give Thanks




Well, fall is here now.  It's time to put away the summer projects, and start working on autumn themed projects.  The layout on this fall card was inspired by Alice Carman.  Lots of sponging brings subtle depth to the elements on this card.  The leaves were stamped with Soft Suede ink onto lighter paper colours (Riding Hood Red, So Saffron, and Certainly Celery).  After they were cut out, the edges were sponged with darker colours of ink (Cherry Cobbler, More Mustard, and Old Olive).   The Tangerine Tango DSP strip was sponged with lots of Cajun Craze ink.  Stay tuned for more fall inspired projects!


Products used for this project: 

Stamp Sets: French Foliage

Card Stock: Very Vanilla,, Riding Hood Red, So Saffron, Certainly Celerly, Soft Suede,  Naturals DSP (Soft Suede), Brights DSP (Tangerine Tango)

Ink: Soft Suede, Cajun Craze, Cherry Cobbler, More Mustard, Old Olive

Accessories and More: Billboard Decorative Strip Die (retired, ) MDS (for the word "thanks"), Woodgrain Embossing Folder, Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding Ribbon

Just looking for beautiful card and got your one. I am thinking to present some beautiful art cards to my nieces and nephew. I got some from another site and I hope will get many as I desired. I think you guys really help us to get your desired things.
