Thankful for You Card Set

Hi Friends,

These three cards were inspired/tweaked by some I saw in Pinterest and in Thailand!

We made these as Make & Takes while on our awesome Stampin' Up! Trip in July!

The base card is Early Espresso then a layer of either Crushed Curry or Garden Green.

Then the luscious Painted Harvest Designer Series paper!

I then stamped and punched out (with the new Leaf Punch) several leaves to correspond with the paper.

Of COURSE I had to use a bit of Wink of Stella on the leaves!

Added a banner strip with the message and a bit of Baker's Twine plus a Faceted Jewel …and VOILA!

What do YOU think?

Painted Autumn Fancy Fold Pumpkins

Hi Friends,

This card was inspired by an amazing Demonstrator, Linda Bauwin.

It's a creative yet fun and easy fold which could be used for just about any occasion.

See those pumpkins? Don't they look like they could just pop off the page?

Well, they were cut out from the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper.

THEN you turn them wrong side up and put them on your Pierce Pad. Using the Score Tool, you simply make small circles on the back of the pumpkins. Keep making circles until the whole pumpkin is 'bubbled' up.

Turn them over and see the 3-d effect?? TOO DARN CUTE I say!

Don't forget to take a look at he promotion for National card Making day. The flyer says it all and you can take advantage of some GREAT bargains!

My challenge to each of you is to send a card to someone you know but perhaps is not a close friend.

Maybe to your Hairdresser or Teller at your bank. Just pick a person whom you perhaps would never send a card to, and SEND ONE TO THEM!

I guarantee that the recipient of your beautiful card will be not only surprised at the mail box, but will be touched by YOUR random act of KINDNESS!

Go ahead–do it! You never know the impact it will have but I can assure you it will be wonderful!

Sunflower Give Thanks Card

Hi Friends,

Perhaps this is one of my all time favorites!

I love sunflowers!

They are happy creations from above!

they make me smile and think of the warm summer and early fall…. I love them

And this card is an example of how fun a sunflower card can be!

It was inspired by a sample in our catalog!

Easy and fast to make.

The base is Whisper White , then a layer of Garden green which I dry embossed with the Petal Burst  Embossing Folder.

A strip of the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper, some Burlap Ribbon under a messaged banner, a few stamped and cut out leaves AND a SUNFLOWER and ta-da!

Of course I added a Clear faceted Gem and Wink of Stella for accents.
What do YOU think?

Ok friends… hope you enjoyed this week's series of cards!
