Hi, friends! Welcome to another day of our Thanksgiving Theme Week. It’s Marge here sharing a Thanksgiving Bridge Card with you today.

Pretty Pink Posh has 15% off items in the Thanksgiving section!

To begin my card, I stamped Pumpkin Patch Critters, Autumn Wreath, Giving Thanks, and Happy Turkey set on 80lb Neenah White paper using Memento Black, then I colored them using my copic markers. After I finished coloring I cut the images using Pumpkin Patch Critters Coordinating Dies, Autumn Wreath Coordinating Dies, Giving Thanks Dies, and Happy Turkey Dies.

Next, I made a bridge fold card as show below where I’m sharing a brief instruction with pictures.

Instruction for bridge fold card

1. Cut a brown card stock into 5.5 x 9 inch. Score along the long end at 3″ and 6″. Fold in Z shape.

2. Place Stitched Borders 2 Die on top of the Z paper, run it through a cutting machine back and forth several times. If the papers are not cut perfectly due to thickness, use scissors to trim off.

3. Score down mid-line pf both outer panels, refold the paper into a standing gate shape.

4. Prepare three pieces of 2.75 x 5.25 inch of Gingham paper, diecut the top portion using the same Stitched Borders 2 Die, score down at center of two pieces, then adhere them onto the brown panel. By doing so, you can create a nested look without using nesting dies set.

5. Make a front panel that would be a bridge, using brown card stock,  Stitched Borders 2 Dies, and Plaid paper and then adhere the bridge to the standing gate. It is easier to adhere one side of bridge and gate when the gate is folded down. Before assembling, I distressed all the edges using Distress Ink Tea Dye to give an autumn mood.

Once I finished assembling Bridge Fold Card, I adhered my colored images here and there using Glue Dots. Sentiment from Giving Thanks was heat embossed in gold and cut by free hand. I also added a piece of Picket Fence on the wall behind.

Here are some more views from different angles.

When I adhered images, I intended that my scene would look good even when it is folded down.

As a final touch, I added Metallic Gold Jewels. Since the card size was about 5.25 x 6 inch when folded down, I also made an envelope with size 5.5×6 inch using a piece of paper of 9.25 x 9.25 inch.

It is very easy to create a fun Bridge Fold Card by just using a scoring board and any kinds of symmetric shape border dies. This type of card can be placed straight up as a part of Thanksgiving decoration, or it can be sent to your friends flat down in an envelope.

I hope you will like it as much as I do. Thanks for your visiting and reading this. Have a wonderful day!

Hi friends, Jeanne here! Fall is in the air and Thanksgiving is only a month away! It’s time to reflect on the blessings in our lives. I’m so thankful for you, for all the love and kindness you’ve shared with me. I’m blessed that our love for making has brought us together and want you to know I appreciate you.

I hope you’re enjoying the Thanksgiving Theme Week projects and getting ideas for your own creations! Pretty Pink Posh has so many great Thanksgiving images (stamps and dies) that the hardest part for me today was choosing what products to work with.  I’ve decided to mix a bit of the old with the new on my two cards.

I’m smitten with the Happy Turkey! I thought he’d look magnificent with a colorful Autumn Wreath behind him! He looks so proud like a peacock!

My card base is a blend of Shaded Lilac, Tumbled Glass and Twisted Citron Distress Inks applied with a stencil brush for a smooth finish. The panel was splattered and then inked with the Happy Thanksgiving Sentiment from Giving Thanks.

All of the images were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copic Markers. The die cut wreath was used to create a shaker. The shaker is filled with Aquamarine sequins (to coordinate with the inked background) and Sparkling Clear sequins (for shine).

My second card features the Fall Scene stamp. It fits perfectly inside the smaller die in the Scallop Frame set.

I layered the framed scene inside the Stitched Notes die cut so there are three rows of stitches along the outer edge of the card.

The corner of the frame is adorned with die cut Autumn Wreath leaves and a cute little acorn. A few Amethyst Jewels define the raised framed image, and add sparkle and shine. They’re my favorite embellishment!

You’ll love embellishing all your holiday projects with these sweet images! And what a great time to buy when you can save 15% on all the Thanksgiving items in the store.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope you were inspired and we’ll see you tomorrow.

Hello crafty friends! It’s Yoonsun here today and I have a couple of Autumn-themed cards using some new and old goodies!

Pretty Pink Posh has 15% off items in the Thanksgiving section!

I started by stamping adorable image from the Fall Scene set on watercolor paper panel using black dye ink. I then colored it with polychromos colored pencils. I also stamped Autumn greetings from the Autumn Wreath set in black.

For the top right corner of the panel, I die cut several autumn leaves from a separate watercolor paper using the Small Stitched Foliage dies, adhered them on the panel using glue pen. I ink blended with Autumn colored Distress inks, and then lightly brushed over that with clean water.

For my second card, I used the Pumpkin Patch Critters stamp set along with other old goodies. I stamped & watercolored cute pumpkin patch critters, then die cut them with the Pumpkin Patch Critters coordinating dies.

For the circle shaker window, I die cut Scallop Circles from orange card stock 1 time, white paper 4 times, stacked white circle die cuts up using fine tip glue pen. I then adhered acetate sheet to the back of the orange circle die cut.

I inked on the white card base using Spiced Marmalade Distress ink, and then adhered thick white scallop circle die cut on the card front, added several autumn-colored beads (Woodlands seed beads, Raspberry seed beads, Gold Shimmer seed beads) in the circle window. I then covered it with orange circle panel.

Thank you for stopping by! Join us tomorrow for another day of Thanksgiving Theme Week!

Welcome everyone! It’s Mindy here today and it’s Thanksgiving Theme Week. I’m kicking it off with two cards featuring some new and old sets!

If you don’t own any of these sets yet you’re in luck!  Pretty Pink Posh has 15% off items in the Thanksgiving section!

My first card is starting off combining Happy Turkey, Autumn Wreath and Giving Thanks stamp sets. My images are stamped on Neenah White cardstock with copic friendly and colored in with copic markers. I thought it would be fun to color some of the foliage with non-traditional colors. Then, I die cut them all out with the coordinating dies.

I die cut a window using the Window Frames die and layered all of my die cut images. This is then attached to an A2 card front that I created using some pattern paper from the Knit Picky Fall paper pack. I finished off the card with some gorgeous Espresso Jewels to tie in the browns from the card.

For my second card, I created my own background with the Stitched Foliage die set and opted for some non-traditional Fall colors as well. I used Apple Mint, Sea Glass, Peach Bellini and Sticky Note cardstock colors.

Keeping the card clean and simple, I stamped a sentiment onto white cardstock using the Giving Thanks stamp set and added some Sparkling Clear Jewels between the leaves.

I couldn’t resist adding a little sparkle to the leaves with my Nuvo Shimmer Pen. I hoped you enjoyed today’s cards and inspires you to combine some of your previous stamp sets with new ones!

Thank you for stopping by! Join us tomorrow for another day of Thanksgiving Theme Week!

Hello, Gemma here today and I have a fun card featuring the Cuddly Cats stamp set, along with the Happy Mail stamp set.

I coloured all the images with copics, with the cats coloured like my own. The bird and mailbox images are from the Happy Mail stamp set. I cut out all the images with the coordinating dies.

Next, I worked on the background. I cut a piece of patterned paper, layering it on a white card base. I then die cut the Storybook 6 die from white card. I layered the frame onto the card, then used distress oxide inks in tumbled glass and mowed lawn to add colour to the Storybook pieces.

I stamped a greeting from the Everyday Greetings stamp set onto one of the panels, then adhered them onto the card.

I then added my images to the card with foam tape. I thought it would be cute to add one of the cats on top of the mailbox. It does make me giggle that it looks like she’s licking her lips, waiting for the bird to fly down!

 

I hope you enjoyed this card. There are lots of possibilities with these stamp sets!
