Hello friends!  You know that Thanksgiving is getting closer and I have been working on my fall cards, so today I finished one of my Thanksgiving cards, The supplies I used are listed above, and below you will find how I made them.  I hope you will make one also, I had a lot of fun working on this card.

1. I cut out my cardstock to the size mentioned above, the beige cardstock, I die cut the border with the rectangle border dies.

2. I stamped the whole cardstock using crumb cake ink, with the leaves using the stamp from the Time of Giving stamp set.

3.  Cut out the circles, the larger circle out of the brown cardstock and the smaller one out of the beige cardstock, I glued the beige one to the brown circle, then I glued them to the beige card front and then glued them to the brown card front.

4.  I stamped a leave on the piece of cardstock that goes inside and glued it to the inside of the card.

5.  I die cut a leaf and the inside of the leaf in gold specialty cardstock using the Autumn Leaves Die set, I then glued it to the circle.

6.  Lastly, I stamped the word Thankful with VersaMark Watermark stamp  I sprinkled the word with the gold tinsel embossing powder and heat embossed it.

7. Raise it up on the card.

 

That finishes my card.  It sounds like a lot of work, but it really isn’t.
