Hello my stamping friends! Welcome to our monthly Amy's Inkin' Krew hop. Our theme for this month is "Giving Thanks" and we can use any product we wish. Here is what I created for it ...
Let's take a closer look...
My card base is Cajun Craze card stock with a mat of Very Vanilla. The foliage die cut is from the Amber Autumn Dies. I used the Earthen Toned Metallic Specialty Paper.
I used Early Espresso card stock and the Everyday Arches Dies for the flap. The acorns and sentiment are from the Amber Autumn Stamp Set. I colored the leaves with Light & Dark Cajun Craze and Timid Tiger Blends. The sentiment is stamped in Early Espresso ink.
Flip up the flap (say that 10 times fast!) and you see this...
Again, I used the Amber Autumn Stamp Set for the sentiment. You must all recognize the retired oak tree from the Lovely as a Tree Stamp Set. There is one similar in the current Loveliest Tree Stamp Set. I stamped the sentiment in Early Espresso and the tree in Basic Beige.
On to the last flip...
I stamped the sentiment from Amber in Early Espresso and the acorn leaves in Basic Beige from the Lovely as a Tree. The paper is some I had from Office Max. score
