Giving Thanks

This time at Cardz TV our challenge to you is to create a card for Thanksgiving. Here is the card I have created:


I used a card base from a kit that I bought at Michael's a few months ago. It came with that pretty embossed front too! I used a die cut that I created using my Cricut Explore and a cartridge "Autumn Celebrations". This cornucopia I think is so very pretty and I used soft colors for my fruit falling out of it... The sentiment "Happy Thanksgiving" is from the Cardz TV stamp set entitled, "Happy Days". This set is chock full of sentiments for lots of different "Happy days". I used yellow and green card stock from Recollections for my frame around the cornucopia and pop up dots to lay it on top of the frame.
Check out the challenge and then plan on joining us. You have 2 weeks to create and post your card. You just might be the next winner of an awesome set of stamps from Mary :)


So...This weekend is really going to be a busy one with shopping and planning our Thanksgiving celebration. I will have lots of family to help celebrate with us and I wouldn't have it any other way! I love, love, love family times !!!!

Hello Pumpkin !

This time around over at CardzTV the challenge is to use a pumpkin in or on your card. Pretty easy and this is definitely the season for pumpkins . I had a little fun with this one and made a dimensional pumpkin for my card front.I found a pumpkin shape that I liked in Design Space and cut it out 3 times. Then I fooled around trying to figure out how to fold it, etc. to give it dimension. I used an embossing folder to give it even more dimension. i love polka dots...don't you?
Here is my card...



I used 2 different stamps from two different stamp sets to complete the card. I used a really cool stitch looking stamp to the outside edges. This is from the new "Basic Borders" set. My sentiment (which is one of my favorites) is from the set called "Count Your Blessings".

Please go over to Cardz TV and see all of the great 'PUMPKIN" cards made by my fellow design team members. Then I hope you join in our challenge! Have a great weekend everyone !!!!
