Thanksgiving Theme Week- Day 2

Liz here and today I’m sharing a card for Day 2 of our Thanksgiving Theme Week.

I’ve been having lots of fun playing with this adorable Giving Thanks set as it has a lot of fun critters and images to color and a variety of fall leaves. Also, I love using the Coordinating Dies to help me cut them out, especially the tiny ones.

Since I love shakers, I thought to create another one and use the Mini Storybook 1 as I love the dual stitching feature which means that after you run the die through the cutting machine, the negative piece is left with stitching. Here you can see the stitching around the window frame.

Here, I placed the window die on the upper part of the card and ran it through the die cutting machine. Than I thought it would be nice to add a border 3/4 down, so I pulled out these cute Scallop Border and placed it down on the same piece I just die cut before running it again through cutting machine.

I wanted a contrasting color between the white cardstock and the plaid paper, so I die cut another Scallop Border and used some chocolate card stock which I glued onto the white piece by lining it up.

For the inside of the shaker, I created some clouds and grass by doing some ink blending and glued down some new 1/4″ Gold Star Confetti so they don’t fall down when shaking and added these wonderful 4mm Autumn Harvest Mix sequins perfect for fall.

I hope you liked today’s post. Be sure to join us tomorrow for another day of Thanksgiving inspiration!
