Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Canadians! I hope you are having a wonderful celebration with those you love!  We had our feast yesterday...and now leftovers for the rest of the week, which is OK with me...it means I don't have to cook :)

Today I want to show you a project I designed way back in the summer. I photographed it before I got my new backdrop ;)

Thanksgiving card featuring the Wondrous Wreath stamp set with sentiment from Merry Everything
To stamp the wreath I began by inking it with Crushed Curry ink and them I added Cajun Craze around the outside edge using a sponge dauber. The accent leaves were heat embossed in gold and the berries are stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink.  The wreath is die-cut using the coordinating Wonderful Wreath Framelits.

The sentiment, from the Merry Everything stamp set, is heat embossed in gold and punched using the Note Tag punch. The background panel is Kraft card stock that is embossed using the Woodgrain TIEF and then layered on a piece of Cajun Craze card stock. The card is built on a Kraft card base. By way of embellishment I used a bit of gold Baker's twine, a few gold sequins and a bit of Burlap ribbon.

On the inside I stamped the accent leaves again, randomly, using Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze and Cherry Cobbler inks.

Happy Thanksgiving!!
