Thanksgiving Theme Week- Day 6

Hello Everyone! Angelica here, and I am so glad you’re joining me on the Pretty Pink Posh today for Thanksgiving theme week. I have two cards to share with you using different fall and Thanksgiving themed stamps.

My first card is all about background stamping. I love making my own backgrounds. Its nice to pick out stamps from a few sets that coordinate nicely together. For this background, I used Autumn Wreath and Happy Turkey stamp sets. In random order, starting in the middle, I placed stamps close  together on Copic-friendly paper and stamped with Memento Tuxedo black ink. I found it helpful to do this in my MISTI. When I finished, I colored the images with Copic markers.

I used The small scallop circle from the Scallop Circle Die set to cut the window out. I also cut the same scallop circle out of purple pearl paper. I taped the circle to the backside of the card-front using washi tape, then added foam adhesive strips. before attaching the card front to an A2 card base, I stamped a sentiment from Giving Thanks stamp set. I then assembled the card, used a white gel pen and Raspberry Jewels to add accents.

For the second card, I kept the front clean and simple.

I stamped out the adorable pilgrims from Giving Thanks stamp set, pumpkins from Pumpkin Patch Critters, and leaves from Autumn Wreath (leaves were stamped on the card base). After coloring the images, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out.

I stamped the sentiment from Giving thanks stamp set, and added the pilgrims with adhesive squares. I glued the pumpkins behind them, and colored small shadows with warm gray Copic markers. I added the card front to an A2 Size card base, then glued on Espresso Jewels using Ranger Multi Media Matte.

There has been so much Thanksgiving Inspiration this week, and there’s still one day to go! I hope you have been enjoying it all. Be sure to stop by tomorrow!
