The upcoming Thanksgiving holiday is always a good time to reflect on what we're grateful for, and these gratitude cards are a beautiful way to express your appreciation for your loved ones.
I really love the look of the bright fall leaves against the neutral graphic background. The leaves, acorns, and greeting came from the stamp set For All Things in the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog. The leaves were stamped in vibrant fall colors and cut out. Then I creased them along natural leaf lines and sponged along the creases and edges to give them more of a aged fall feel.
The bold background papers came from the Typeset Specialty Designer Paper collection. I cut the greeting out using the Big Shot and the Labels Collection Framelits.
This card started as a sketch from i Love Card Sketches. I really like using a sketch as a starting point for my handmade card ideas. Why don't you join us over there and submit your own personal work of heart! 🙂
