Fall Thank You

Is it fall yet? The Classy Cards 'n Such online store has some beautiful papers that show how beautiful fall colors are.

Here is a card I made with some of my favorite papers called Harvest Lane, and Pumpkin Spice, by Simple Stories. The sentiment and scalloped center stamp is from Floral Fan Elements by JustRite.

The bottom half of the card was embossed with the Anna Griffin folder called Smitten.

My favorite part of the card is the upper half which comes from the Harvest Lane paper pad. It has several pages of 3" x 6" elements. This one was trimmed to fit my card base.

The layer medallion was cut with two dies from Blueprints 13, and the scallop border is from Blueprints 3, both by My Favorite Things. The medallion was popped up with Joy! Large Foam Pads.

Here's hoping fall is coming soon near you! While you wait, take a look at the many pretty fall colored papers at Classy Cards 'n Such online store. You can keep you dreaming that fall is right around the corner.

Thankful

Welcome friends! Mindy here, with my sample card for this weeks card challenge at Classy Cards 'n Such. This week's theme is #109 Gobble-Gobble, because Thanksgiving is just around the corner. There are many things I am thankful for, especially the many followers of our blog and newsletter.

I started today's card with an embossing folder that is NEW at the Classy Cards store. It is the Braided Vines embossing folder by Sue Wilson, and is one of the larger sized folders, 8.5" X 12". The only problem I had was my machine is one of the smaller models and the folder was too big to fit. I am planning to get a new machine soon with the larger plate, so I decided to use the folder in a different way. I opened it and applied my ink on the raised side, then stamped the image on my background stock. I then inked around the edge before adhering to my card base.

I then die cut a stitched oval and used Joy! Small Foam pads to adhere it to my card.

I then cut two Classic Tom Turkeys, from Memory Box, and a handful of leaves from the Small Leaf Set by Impression Obsession. I colored the small leaves with many colors from the Complete set of Earth Tone Color Bursts from Ken Oliver Crafts, on watercolor paper, then adhered them with Art Institute Dries Clear Adhesive.

The sentiment used was from the I Am Thankful stamp set from Impression Obsession, and I added a few hand-cut sequins from the Sequins Die-namics die from My Favorite Things.

I hope you have enjoyed my card, and will join us for our challenge this week.

My Dear Friend

Hello, it's Joy! Getting ready for Thanksgiving? If you are the challenge at Classy Cards 'n Such will get you in the mood! It's called #109 Gobble, Gobble - add a turkey to your card.

The bookmark/tab and circle/sunburst die cuts are from the Blueprints 13, and the stitched stripe border is from the die set Blueprints 3, both by My Favorite Things.

The papers are from 2 different 6" x 6" pads from Simple Stories, called Harvest Lane and Pumpkin Spice.

The "Thank God for You" sentiment is from the set called You Are Beautiful, by Impression Obsession, and the tiny "to my dear friend" sentiment is from JustRite stamps called Floral Fan Elements. These were popped up using the Joy! Small Foam Pads.
