I want to mail a few Thanksgiving cards this year, so I decided to use the diagonal row of Thanksgiving Theme, Free (die cut, dry embossing, jewels) & Gold Foil or Glitter. Fun combining products from several different companies.
I began by stamping the Impression Obsession sentiment on a kraft panel in Versafine Clair Acorn. Then I embossed the panel with a Tim Holtz woodgrain folder & lightly inked the raised areas with brown dye ink. The SSS Etched Laurel Leaves were die cut from gold foil cardstock twice & glued allowing the end of the leaves to turn up. The little bow from PTI Gathered Garden was die cut from a kraft scrap, stacked 2 high & brushed with the brown ink. I attached the kraft panel to a slightly bigger piece of the gold foil cardstock & then to an ivory card. Finished off with Pinkfresh Studio Espresso Gems. Hope you'll check out all the DT inspiration & enter the challenge.
I'm entering SSS Monday & The Snippets Playground.
