In the note card below, I depict a lot of what I am grateful for - the blue sky, the changing colour of the leaves, pumpkins, and that wonderful turkey dinner shared by family and friends.
The turkey, from "Feathered Friends" was stamped on Whisper White and partially die cut using a square die. After rounding the corners of this die cut, and sponging the edges with Early Espresso ink, the sentiments from "Feathered Friends" and "Gather Together" were stamped in the white space. Using Stampin' Blends, I coloured the turkey and these colours became the inspiration for the rest of the card.
Doesn't the turkey look like he's calling everyone to dinner?
The sky was brayered with Balmy Blue ink, and the ground with Crumb Cake with a touch of Cajun Craze. The tree from "Snow Front" was stamped with Early Espresso ink and the colourful leaves were stamped in Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze. I used the 'falling snow' stamp for the leaves on the trees.
The turkey 'tag' was added to the card front using dimensionals. But before doing so, the sprig of wheat was stamped multiple times in Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze behind where the tag would be.
Pumpkins, from the stamp set "Gather Together" were stamped on Pumpkin Pie card stock, die cut and added to the card front using dimensionals.
