Thanksgiving Sentiment Card

Stamp TV Potluck Challenge is to make a sentiment background. I ordered "Vintage Borders" stamp set by Nina Brackett the other night but right now I don’t have any sentiment background stamps so I made the background on my computer. The font is Snell Roundhand. I liked the way it looked so typed a page with things I am thankful for. I hope to make Thanksgiving cards this weekend for my family and friends. This is the first one. I love the idea of a sentiment background. Nina’s set has a beautiful Christmas sentiment background stamp. You can see it here.
This card was also inspired by Our Creative Corner Challenge.
Here is the picture for inspiration.









The image is by Theresa Momber from her set called Autumn Beauty. I colored it with Copic Markers. The base card stock is Pure Luxury Pumpkin Spice. The ribbon and brown card stock is something I had.
Thanks for stopping and be sure to say Hi.

Thanksgiving Cards for the Troops Unscripted


I have been working on Thanksgiving cards for the troops. Here are a few I worked on this weekend. I followed the Unscripted Sketches layout. The base card stock is SU Creamy Caramel or Lure Luxury Green Apple. I embossed some core card stock with Cuttlebug's Autumn Type folder. Then I sanded that. I have been looking for that folder and found it on Sunday after leaving the clinic. It turned out that I had a sinus infection. I just wasn't getting better so I went in and got an antibiotic. I also picked up the ribbon I used on these cards when I got the folder. The stamp set I used was Autumn Beauty by Theresa Momber. The buckles are from CTMH. The little leaf was cut with my Cricut and the Tinker Bell cartridge. The inside is stamped with Happy Thanksgiving. That's about all.
Thanks for stopping and let me know what you think.

Thanksgiving to the Troops

This is another card I made on Saturday. The art teacher asked for Thanksgiving Cards for the Troops. I made this card following the Unscripted Sketch for this week. The turkey stamp and Happy Thanksgiving are by JRL Design Co. I colored the turkey with Copic markers. The sunflowers are from the set called Autumn Beauty by Theresa Momber at Stamp TV. They are colored with copic markers. I used a cuttlebug folder to emboss the base card.
I added a light color to the inside to stamp Happy Thanksgiving.
