You know, sometimes it feels like I'm been cleaning and sorting for years. I know, it's only be a couple of months. How does any one collect so much "stuff"? When I was cleaning out my craft supply closet, I put all of my scraps in a box and every now and again, I'll pull out some colors and make a card like today's
Thanksgiving card. As a former
Stampin' Up! demonstrator, I have a lot of retired card stock and designer series paper. I love how the
Cajun Craze and
Not Quite Navy card stock along with the
Well Worn Designer Series Paper look together. I have been concentrating on making my
Thanksgiving cards to send to family and friends. Here's my latest.
Stamp Sets: Pumpkin (Studio G), A Season of Giving (Hero Arts);
Inks: Cajun Craze (Stampin' Up!), Tim Holtz Distress Embossing Ink (Ranger);
Card Stock: Not Quite Navy, Cajun Craze and Well Worn Designer Series Paper (Stampin' Up!), Autumn Song Collection (Bo Bunny);
Accessories & Tools: Clear Embossing Powder (Stampin' Up!), White Doily (Bo Bunny), Pop Dots
I also added a sentiment to the inside of the card using the
Cajun Craze card stock and clear embossed it as well. I was going to add the rest of the doily but it looked rather odd, so I just left it off. Although you can't see it, I stamped the pumpkin on the doily, then stamped it on some patterned paper, cut it out and used pop dots to attach it to the card.
A few more Thanksgiving cards and I can start in on those Christmas cards. I have a few done but now that I've made my list, I have quite a few to go.
Until next time. . .happy creating!
