TGIF, peeps! Thanksgiving is less than a week away and I made three of these cards, which have all been sold! I CASEd a card made by one of my teammates, Donna Leonard.
I used the floral arrangement from the Autumn Goodness Stamp Set and the sentiment stamp from the Arrange A Wreath Stamp Set. Other product I used will be listed below.
I started out with a Soft Suede card base and adhered a mat of Very Vanilla that I embossed with the Tin Tile 3D EF. I used a die from the retired Swirly Scribbles Dies (Painted Labels Dies could be used and that is current) to make a back drop for the sentiment from the Arrange A Wreath Stamp Set. That is stamped in Soft Suede on a scrap of Very Vanilla. I cut it out with a die from Stitched Shapes Dies and adhered it with liquid glue to the swirly piece.
Next I cut a piece of Plaid Tidings DSP and adhered it to a piece of Soft Suede cardstock. I adhered that to my embossed mat with liquid glue. Then I adhered the sentiment piece with liquid glue. Taking a scrap piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, I stamped the floral/leaf image from the Autumn Goodness Stamp Set in Soft Suede and cut it out with the Autumn Wheelbarrow Dies. I adhered that to the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals.
So, so far I have two of the items needed to play at Festive Friday #FF0072. The inside of my card is the third item.
Let's take a look see. The inside was done using my computer and printer. I rounded off the corners with the retired Trio Punch.
I had a lot of fun with this one and I thank Donna for the inspiration on the card front.
I'm also playing in the Alphabet Challenge "Q is for use a Quote". "You are what you eat" has an interesting story behind it here.
TGIF Challenge #TGIFC291 has a great challenge too. I love their inspirational photo.
Thanks for stopping by today, I am always thankful for your visits and comments.
