Give THANKS!

Hi readers! Happy Sunday! Can you believe it’s the week of Thanksgiving?! (Directed to readers in the ‘States like me ;)) My goodness, time just keeps on ticking!! Maybe our blog can help give you a bit of a slow down to enjoy and be inspired! This month Lawn Fawn’s own Chari Moss has made a very season appropriate card that I think you’ll love!

Enjoy!

Is anyone else totally in Thanksgiving mode? I am, we are having our family over to our new house for Thanksgiving so I’m getting things ready to have our first gathering! So I was inspired to create a thanksgiving card for you today.  I wanted to create a big bold sentiment with the critters as supporting elements so I thought die cuts would be the perfect way to do that.

I stamped gingham backdrops in red Lobster ink on red cardstock for a tone on tone pattern and I chose cork for the scripty thanks for some extra texture.  I had originally planned on using the die cut letters for both words but since I had laid out my dies perfectly on the red I ended up with a perfect negative die cut that I liked even better!

The leaves and corn are from the happy harvest set and I just stamped them around in various inks to act like simple embellishment rather than sequins and then I finished it off with a little rustic twine along the top.
