Painted Autumn Thanksgiving Card

Thanksgiving weekend is coming up fast.  Here in Canada it is the first weekend in October, and since I am doing a 3 day craft show on that weekend I needed to make some Thanksgiving/autumn cards.

The this sunflower on this card, I experimented with several color combinations:  Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry and Daffodil Delight; Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie and Daffodil Delight; and finally Daffodil Delight, Cajun Craze and Daffodil Delight.- and deciding on the Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie option.

On Very Vanilla card stock, I stamped 3 sunflowers in a random pattern using the predetermined color pattern.  The center is stamped with Early Espresso ink; the leaves in Garden Green.

At the bottom is a strip of Painted Autumn Specialty DSP with some burlap ribbon on top.

The sentiment was punched with the Pretty Label punch and gold faceted gems added to the flower centers and below the sentiment.

Some Gold Wink of Stella was "splattered" across the card front and then I was done.

Supplies Used:
Stamp:  Painted Harvest
Inks: Early Espresso, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Garden Green
Papers:  Cajun Craze, Very Vanilla, Painted Autumn DSP
Accessories:  Burlap ribbon, Pretty Label Punch, Gold Faceted Gems, Gold Wink of Stella
