Anita <\/a>made a thank-you art journal spread using acrylic paints<\/a> with Dyan Reaveley Dylusions Dyalog Ranger Border It Stencil<\/a> for the background. For the focal leaves, she used Lawn Fawn Stitched Poinsettia Die Cuts<\/a>, and for the sentiment, Simon Says Thoughtful Messages Clear Stamps<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Andrea<\/a> created a gratitude tag using Art by Marlene’s Funky Tags<\/a>. She made the sentiment using Darkroom Door’s Ransom Alphabet<\/a> stamp set. She used a Seth Apter Paper Artsy EM77<\/a> stamp and AALL & Create’s Poets<\/a> washi tape to give the background some pep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> made four gift tags for this week’s challenge. She used Simon Says Stamp Label Tags<\/a> to die cut the tags. The background was embossed in Simon Says Stamp Wistful Leaves embossing folder<\/a>. Both of these products are included in the Simon Says Stamp Cozy Autumn Hugs November Card Kit<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/a> created a card using her favorite color palette made of bright and warm shades!
She used two dies by Tim Holtz Sizzix: Artsy Leaves Thinlits dies <\/a>and Holiday Blocks Thinlits Dies<\/a>. The sentiment is part of Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Note Quotes<\/a> stamps set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cheiron<\/a> created a thank you card using Thanksgiving-ish colors. She ink blended Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Mustard Seed,<\/a> Rusty Hinge <\/a>and Iced Spruce<\/a> over the Simon Says Stamp Twining Berries<\/a> Embossing Folder. She added gold and white splatter then added the Privet Branch <\/a>die cut and finished her card with the Fancy Thanks<\/a> die. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Emma’s<\/a> Etcetera Tag<\/a> uses a combination of new and old dies from Tim Holtz and Sizzix, including Feathered Friends<\/a> and Artsy Leaves<\/a>. She nestled her little birdie who is dropping in to say thank you, amongst the leaves and added them to a background that uses Tim’s Distress Spray Stains, Mica Sprays and Translucent Grit Paste<\/a>, applied through the Stampers Anonymous Rosette Layering Stencil<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kat<\/a>h<\/a> returned to her Dylusions Small Creative Journal<\/a> this week to create a Thankful Art Journal page with an Autumn colour palette using Tim Holtz\/Sizzix Leaf Fragments<\/a> and Alphanumeric Stretch Upper<\/a> Thinlits, Idea-ology Backdrops Volume 2<\/a>, Urban Layers<\/a>, Transparent Layers<\/a> and Transparent Things<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> made a very layered and dimensional card using for the background a cardboard leftovers from Tim Holtz Sizzix Heartfelt BigZ die<\/a>. She covered it with Tim Holtz Idea-ology Typeset Collage Paper<\/a>. The composition was built with Altenew Rounded Rectangles dies<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Maura<\/a> used the Simon Says Stamp Autumn Cascade stencil <\/a>, Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks like Spiced Marmalade<\/a> and Wild Honey<\/a>, and Tim Holtz\/Stampers Anonymous Stitches stamps<\/a> to create an art journal page on thankfulness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Stamperia SEA LAND 12×12 Paper <\/a>on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz Idea-ology PAPER DOLLS PORTRAITS<\/a> and Tim Holtz Sizzix FALL FOLIAGE Thinlits Die<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Zoey<\/a> used Tim Holtz Layering Stencil Berry Leaves<\/a> to create texture in her background. She also used Distress Ink<\/a> + Distress Spray<\/a> to add color. For the cluster she used Tim Holtz Paper Portraits<\/a> and Sizzix leaves taken from Modern Festive<\/a> and Modern Floristry<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
