Happy Thanksgiving - Day of Thanks

Hello and welcome to my blog for the second post for today;  I wanted to take a few minutes and wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and I have a card for the occasion.  I used the Day of Thanks stamp set to create this card.  Since it was designed for Thanksgiving with some iconic imagery it was a must to create.  Here's a look at my card.


I started my card by adding a piece of the Come to Gather Designer Series Paper cut at 3 3/4 x 5.  I stamped the Happy Thanksgiving from the stamp set in Early Espresso on the designer series paper.  I stamped the turkey onto a stitch circle in Early Espresso also.  I added the designer series paper to a Cajun Craze mat cut at 4 x 5 1/4.  I attached this to a Early Espresso card base cut at 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4.
To dress up the card I used some of the denim ribbon and the Crumb Cake ribbon from the Come to Gather Ribbon Combo Pack.  I attached the ribbon with a little tear & tape and then popped the stitched circle with the turkey up over the ribbon with Stampin' Dimensionals.
Thanks for dropping by.  I hope that you have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving holiday if you are in the states.  Also I wanted to mention that I have my Black Friday - Cyber Monday Ordering Special going on right now.   You can read all about it by clicking here.

Seasonal Wreath Gather Together Card

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share another Fall themed card with you.  Today, I am using the Seasonal Wreath stamp set and some of the Gather Together Designer Series Paper, for a autumn filled monochromatic card.  Here's a look at my card.

Tips & Tricks: 

I started my card with my card base; which is a piece of 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2 Pretty Peacock Cardstock.  I then added a piece of the Gather Together Designer Series Paper cut at 4 x 5 1/4.  For the main focus of the card I stamped the wreath from the Seasonal Wreath stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink, but before I used the matching dies to cut out the wreath I used my Wink of Stella to give the wreath a little glitter and watercolor look.  I then stamped the sentiment and punched it out with a 1 3/4" circle punch.  
After letting everything dry I popped the wreath up using mini dimensionals in the center of the card.  then placed the sentiment in the center of the wreath on stampin dimensionals.  This was a super easy and fun little card to create for the Fall and Thanksgiving being right around the corner.  This is a great set to create cards for any type of kindness cards you may need.  
Thanks for dropping by today I hope that you have a wonderful weekend.  I will be back tomorrow with a new Holiday card video.  
Happy Stampin'

Kylie's Demonstrator Training Program Team Blog Hop


Hello and welcome to this month's Demonstrator Training Blog Hop.  It's Fall still even with the temperature that has dropped to a cool Winter chill.  But sometimes it happens that it starts getting colder during Thanksgiving.  Thanksgiving in the States is only three weeks away, and we all have a lot to be thankful for.  During this time of the year in the US we celebrate Thanksgiving a time to be thankful for everything in your life.  Over the last year there has been a lot of ups and downs good and bad that have happened.  I am thankful for so much during this season of thanks.  I am thankful for the time that my Baby brother had to stay with us during his recovery before his untimely passing, I am thankful for my supportive customers and friends.  I am thankful for being part of this training program again this year.  I am thankful for so many things so with all that in mind I wanted to create a card to represent these and all the other things I am Thankful for this season.  Let's have a look at my card. 


Basically for my card I used scraps of the Come Together Designer Series Paper and puzzle pieced these scraps into a design that was pleasing to the eye.  I like to refer to this as the Puzzle Piecing or Patchwork technique.  This is a fun way to create especially if you have hit a brick wall in the creative process.  By working in this technique you free up your mind to get past the blocks that could be keeping you from creating.  Once I had the design figured out I added mats to the designer series paper.  Some of the layers were popped up on dimensionals, some where just glued down using liquid glue.   After stamping the pumpkins I used my Wink of Stella to create a watercolor look on the pumpkins.  I cut them out using the matching dies, and added them to my card.
